Cambridge IGCSE Chinese as a Second Language Coursebook Cambridge Elevate Edition (2 Years)

This is a digital book.  Code will be provided via email.

With topics ranging from festivals to travel and technology, each unit in this Cambridge Elevate Edition is based around one authentic Mandarin Chinese text and audio recording. This mix of content helps students engage with the subject and develop their ability to handle real language materials. Audio recordings (available online) help students practise the new listening aspect of the course, while ‘Culture boxes’ provide interesting insights into Chinese culture. Students will work collaboratively with others – in pairs and in groups – to develop language skills through communication. Answers to the coursebook questions are in the digital teacher’s resource.

• Personalise Cambridge Elevate editions to your needs – set homework, link to the web and share annotations with your class.
• A range of reading comprehension texts including emails, blogs, and newspaper articles help students create different types of written pieces.
• Learning objectives and warm-up exercises at the beginning of each unit prepare students for the work ahead.
• 'Culture boxes' provide interesting insights into Chinese cultures and provide talking points for students to practise language in the classroom.
• Each unit includes a variety of activities that help develop listening, reading, writing and speaking skills in a practical, communicative way.
