Topics from A to Z: Steps to Success in Listening and Speaking, Book 2, by Irene E. Schoenberg, is a unique and effective listening and speaking program for low-intermediate English learners. Twenty-six units—one for each letter of the alphabet—take students on a journey from the straightforward to the highly imaginative with topics such as childhood memories, jazz, Australia, and phobias. Students build confidence in listening and speaking as they develop vocabulary, pronunciation, and conversation skills.
Each unit includes:
- lively art to stimulate discussion
- listening questions based on fun facts
- pair work drawing on personal experience
- pointers for common pronunciation problems
