Grammar SCENARIO Book One: Beginning to Use English Grammar in Context = 302-Page Student Text
The classic SCENARIO: English Grammar in Context Series was given a new, user-friendlier 21st century look! Type size was increased. Helpful visuals were added. Bold, clear Grammar Boxes were reformatted to give ample examples of appropriate sentence patterns for use in exercises/activities. Sidebar information was inserted to provide rules that anticipate and answer student questions. Explanations, items, instructions, exercises, and activities Beyond the Basic were marked with one*, two**, or three*** stars to distinguish them from "the essentials." And for use in "academic ESL courses" that emphasize "critical thinking in paper-writing," there are steps to follow-- especially in the Review & Summary Chapters 5, 10, 15, 20. Based on "rhetorical forms" such as Classifying, Spatial Description, Biography, Process, Narrative, and the like, these incorporate the phrasing of targeted grammatical structures with organizational, creative, expressive, and cooperative-learning activities.
The New SCENARIO Book One: Beginning to Use English Grammar in Context is a truly complete, High-Beginning to Low-Intermediate, multi-leveled, motivating and engaging Grammar-Based Language-Skills Book! With the text alone--and with little extra preparation or supplementary material, teachers and students can custom-design a challenging (but not overwhelming) course for each learning group or even every individual. Surprisingly communicative oral-skills and writing activities include practical vocabulary, content info, group work, peer feedback, and academic writing. A plethora of expressive, communicative oral/written activity and game ideas + reproducible materials make the Text all encompassing and, therefore, flexible. It's easy for text-users to choose what works best for them, adapting it if necessary to their own or their class situations. It's also works to leave out what works less efficiently, coming back to it if desired at another time for another purpose.
In 20 Contexts (“Scenarios”) with chapter titles such as "Magic; Curiosity . . . and Knowledge," "Dreams; Work, Work, Work," "Enough Questions Already," "A Party," "All Kinds of Stuff," "Survival," "Gossip," "Help," and so on, the major grammar targeted in Book One is Sentences with Be; Kinds of Nouns & Markers; the Present, Past, and Future; Simple Modal Verbs; Infinitive Phrases; and related topics.
For shorter courses--or if less time is available for focus on grammar, the 282 pages of text material can be ordered in separate segments, One-A and/or One-B. The reproducible, very complete Book One Answer Keys & Teacher’s Guides A & B, invaluable for independent study, contains answers for all text exercises—and suggestions for language to use in oral and written activities.

(Incorporating all previous grammatical structures and rules, the New SCENARIO Book Two [ISBN 978-1-891077-94-4] and the New SCENARIO Book Three [ISBN 978-1-891077-TBD] are still in long-range development. They will contain even more modernized, effective content and techniques, moving forward in surprisingly engaging, creative ways. In the meantime, the much simpler, classic but still useful, SCENARIOS: English Grammar in Context 1 (Beginning), 2 (Intermediate), and 3 (Advanced) Student Texts--with or without a corresponding Instructor's Manual can be ordered on a "RePrint on Demand" basis. Or they can be downloaded on request.)
