The Targeting Text series develops students’ comprehension and writing skills using real texts as models, studying their particular features and scaffolding student's own writing with structured teaching units. Each text type is given comprehensive coverage with a clear descriptive overview followed by well-structured lessons that really motivate your students. All units are linked to outcomes-based assessment pages that help you plan the next step.
