Designed for use by IB Diploma Language B students. Each of the 15 units in this full-colour book provides students with a model text and gives them exercises that help them to analyse the structure and language. They then work up to writing a similar type of text in a similar register of language. The approach trains students to reflect on the communicative purpose of each text and to use the language appropriate to the type of text and its audience. It teaches them to structure arguments in a clear, coherent and convincing way.
