in my weak 11th grade going up to 12th, there are some students who all all right when they have to do an unseen (they got around 80 in E), but their writing is VERY weak. i want to suggest a workbook for them to use over the summer, to improve their writing and help them get good grades in the F and G writing. (in my opinion, at the moment they would get around 10/30 points. a little too low...) any ideas? we use "writing grammar" from ECB in the 12th grade, so i don't want to give them that. a long time ago there was a very good book called something like "writing for the 5 point bagrut". it was, i think, light green (?) and had chapters on "the sentence", "the paragraph", "the formal letter". but i can't find it in any of the catalogs, and i suppose the kids couldn't find it to buy. another option is "success in F and G" from ECB. i think it is wonderful (they even have me recommending it in the catalog) but it is not focused enough on writing. anybody have any ideas? thanks, sara g -- sara g in israel sarag@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx saragabai@xxxxxxxxx Visit us at The E Zone http://clickit3.ort.org.il/ganyavneenglish ----------------------------------------------- ** Etni homepage - http://www.etni.org or - http://www.etni.org.il ** ** for help - ask@xxxxxxxx ** ** to post to this list - etni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** -----------------------------------------------
