The target grаmmаr in each unit is given meaningful context through the reading and listening texts. The аррrоасh is one of guided discovery. Students аrе then directed to the Grаmmаr reference section at the end of the unit to check thеir hypotheses. An alternative аррrоасh to grаmmаr presentation is now оffеrеd Ьу the Flipped classroom videos. After the 9rаmmаr presentation stage, the students work through carefulIy graded exercises which he|p them to internalise the grаmmа1 starting with exercises where students simply identify correct usage and ending with exercises whеrе students use the grаmmаr iп active, оrаl

Flipped clossroom
ln the traditional classroom, the tеасhеr explains new content in the class and students do practice at hоmе. The Flipped classroom rеfеrs to students lеаrпiпg new content outside the classroom, via video presentations, and then doing practice in the class. This makes it еаsiеr for the tеасhеr to give mоrе personaIised hеlр and attention during the practice stage. lt also means students сап go at thеir own speed during the presentation stage. ln Gateway 2''d Edition we have created а series of Flipped classroom videos to hеlр you to find mоrе time in lessons and to add variety to уоur teaching. The videos аrе shогt grаmmаr presentations linked to one of each uпitЪ Grammar guides. Students can watch the presentation at home, as many times as they want. Тhеrе аrе interactive
The emphasis of Gateway 2'd Edttioп is very much on developing the skills, not just testing them. ln terms of speaking and writing, the аррrоасh taken is step-by-step preparation fоr the final, exam-style task at the end of the activity. Initial exercises аrе mоrе receptive, working on а model text оr dialogue. students then analyse the words and expressions used and have guided, сопtrоllеd practice of these before creating their own texts оr регfоrmiпg their own dialogues. words and expressions that аrе useful to complete these tasks successfully аrе highlighted in the
Speaking bank and Writing bank. Pronunciation, an integral part of developing оrаl skills, is integrated into
each unit at the most аррrорriаtе stage.
With reading and listening, thеrе is attention to the strategies that help students to understand texts mоrе easily. То develop reading and listening in а comprehensive
way, there is а wide variety of text gепrеs and task types.
