OBJECTIVE
This notebook has the objective to learn and practice the
grammar forms focused on the sequence one of the New
Interchange Third edition by Jack Richards et al. In this notebook
they will have a big variety of grammar exercises in which they
will develop a communicative competence.
INTRODUCTION
Nowadays when we are involved into a new second language it’s important to learn and
put in practice the four skills which any person needs to take into consideration.
The goal of this strategy is to involve to the students through the relatives pronoun as
subjects and objects, gerunds phrases as subjects and objects, comparisons with
adjectives, verbs, nouns and past participles so the requests with modals, if clauses and
gerunds which indirect requests; where they several exercises to get the main idea and
practice them.
Before you can start writing in English, you have to learn how things are written in
English. You do this by the correct English sentences of other people (ideally, native
speakers).
Learning a second language is essentially a question of writing? Why? Because when
we write, we need to create in our mind our ideas before we can express them in a
logical way. Sometimes we write without taking in to consideration grammar; we only
write first. But when we take into consideration grammar, the ideas which we want to
express change.
To develop this compilation help to students to put in practice the knowledge learnt
during their classes and teachers don’t only use books, equipment, visuals and other
aids to teach English, they try that the students are involved into the four abilities
(Reading, Speaking, Listening and writing).
