Easy English Series - Book 6: EASY TEXT TYPES

The Easy English Series consists of eight books, all of which have been carefully constructed to increase the proficiency of ESL (English as a Second Language) and ESD (English as a Second Dialect) students’ use of standard English. The series immerses students in a language programme which is accessible and relevant to the lives and experiences of young people, regardless of their cultural and linguistic backgrounds.

The series is very well laid out with an appealing font, graphics that will appeal to all ages and text is well spaced and uncluttered. The activities in each book are suitable for ESL/ESD students or any student who is struggling with the English language.

Book 6 – Easy Text Types: is the sixth book in the series and aims to improve educational outcomes for indigenous and ESL students. It introduces the idea that not all texts are the same. The students are encouraged to read and become familiar with the features of narratives, recounts, procedures and information reports. All of the sample text types in this book are brilliantly
illustrated and simply presented to motivate students to begin to plan, write and edit their own text types with enthusiasm and confidence.
