Hi Esther! It sounds as if they are weaker than 9th grade, I loved teaching (and will continue to teach next year) with On Track Alternative, check it! (ECB) Also, there is a great site that I use, which was recommended here, and I keep forwarding my recommendation to othersm because it's such a treasure indeed! It's just wonderful, and pupils love it. It will help practicing vocabulary through games Here's the direct link to On Track Alternative exercises, you can check if other books you're using are included (the most common ECB books ones are there). It's a great opportunity to thank the creator- http://ortenglish.50webs.com/9thgrade/ontrackalt/main9ot.htm To access other grades, just replace the number "9" with the class number you're interested in e.g. "7" for 7th grade etc... - an index tree will be opened to chose from.

Until now they've been using the old 'Points to Success'. It is no longer on sale at ECB and the new edition is much too difficult. These girls will probably fail module C and only by success on A + B pass their 3 point bagrut exams. Any ideas, anyone? Esther Revivo **********************************
