Crafts of English Second Edition retains all the strengths of the original, highly successful first edition. The aim of the second edition is to develop these strengths and also incorporate changes that not only address the requirements of the CSF and National Profiles documents, but also the suggestions made by many teachers who used the first edition. Key features: text and images extensively revised and updated, new book design enhances legibility and the addition of a second colour enlivens the text, a list of simply expressed outcomes introduces each chapter and indicates what should be reasonably achieved by students on the chapter's completion, a new scope and sequence chart allows teachers and students to quickly locate desired skills and activities, margin boxes show student comments on the activities and text, a new chapter, Points of Style, deals with a number of common expression problems faced by students in a practical and intelligible way, a thesaurus of 50 commonly overused words focuses students' attention on these high-frequency words and their suitable alternatives, greater use of student writing in text-response activities.
