Seven anglophone nations, seven texts
Smart English is a series of texts aimed at students of primary and middle school ages. In this series, seven countries are highlighted separately: The UK, the USA, Canada, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. Every country gets a different treatment.
Students will be surprised and challenged and will be stimulated to learn more about the English-speaking world.
Reading comprehension
‘Smart English: A view from abroad’ is designed for (international) students of primary or middle school age. These English texts take a look at anglophone nations from varying angles, ensuring student interest and motivation. Every text comes with either questions or assignments, or both.
