Center Stage 4 Student Book

Center Stage - the all-inclusive, four-level program for standards-based language and lifeskills instruction. Realistic, engaging themes offer authentic contexts in which grammar practice is integrated with speaking, listening, reading, and writing. The unique combination of the Center Stage Student Books with the Lifeskills and Test Prep Books (Levels 1 and 2) addresses both functional lifeskills and explicit grammar objectives.

Center Stage 4: Express Yourself in English, by Lynn Bonesteel and Samuela Eckstut-Didier (Series Consultants: MaryAnn Florez and Sharon Seymour), gives your students the communicative skills to start using English effectively in their daily lives. Center Stage 4 is an integrated four-skills course that supports student learning and achievement.
