In this worktext, Wong ensures that students focus on their grammar and sentence-writing skills by offering clear, step-by-step instruction reinforced through numerous examples and abundant exercises for individual, partner, or group practice. Each topic is clearly defined without overwhelming details, sophisticated rules, or lengthy explanations.

This worktext guides students through a seven-step writing process--from generating ideas to completing a paragraph--and repeatedly demonstrates each step while covering the structure of nine types of paragraphs, including narrative, descriptive, comparison/contrast, and summary paragraphs.
