Connecting English is a fresh workbook series that supports your teaching of language and literacy, with a focus on applying these skills across key learning areas.

Experienced teacher author team

The authors of these workbooks are practising and former teachers from across Australia. Their diverse range of teaching experience has enabled them to develop a range of effective exercises to introduce each skill and offer strong support to teachers.

Structure supports skills application

These new workbooks divide each unit into two student-friendly halves: understanding essential skills and applying these skills to real-world texts, supporting language and literacy across all key learning areas.

Wide range of samples with cross-curricular links

The sample texts chosen for activities are drawn from across the key learning areas to support students’ use of language and literacy, and interests across all subjects. These cross-curricular links are explicitly signposted in the workbooks.

Extensive teacher resources

Extensive teacher support material includes suggested responses to all exercises, PowerPoint documents for addressing more difficult concepts, and guidance for scaffolding information and making connections between units. Extra information is also provided on the text extracts and how they effectively demonstrate a skill.
