Successful Writing Upper-Intermediate consists of 19 units which cover all types of composition writing (descriptions, narratives, transactional and other types of letters/emails, argumentative essays, articles, reviews) required at FCE level. Each unit starts with a lead-in listening activity through which the basic plan for the type of writing the unit deals with is introduced. This also serves as a brainstorming activity, giving the teacher the chance to elicit useful language and ideas on the topic under discussion. Detailed theory and plans are provided to be used as a reference by students. A variety of models in which the theory is applied are followed by exercises to improve students’ writing skills, focusing on register and style. The exercises are graded, leading to the acquisition of those skills needed for students to be able to write successfully at FCE level. Topic identification, revision boxes and study check sections reinforce students’ knowledge and remind them of the structures previously presented, thus helping them revise the writing areas covered in the book. The Teacher’s Book provides answers to the exercises, model plans, transcripts of the listening exercises and useful teaching tips. At the back of the Teacher’s Book are marked model compositions to help teachers mark students’ compositions. The book is accompanied by an audio CD with all the listening exercises.
