Light Up with English Clavia T Williams-McBean

Light up with English: An English Literature workbook for CSEC(R) English B - Prose is the first workbook of its kind to be added to the Caribbean educational landscape. It was designed based on the learning objectives of the CSEC(R) English syllabus in order to make classroom instruction more effective and maximize learning outcomes. It is my aim that while learning the content for the CSEC(R) syllabus, students will make connections to their unique life experiences. Also, they should increase their knowledge and appreciation of the cultures presented in the different short stories and novels. This workbook incorporates activities which cater to the varied intelligences in the classroom. It also incorporates the use of Information Communication Technology (ICT), formative assessment, games, rewards and collaborative learning to make learning more interactive and fun. It is believed that the nature of the activities will allow students to become excited about learning both English Language and Literature. It is my hope that this Workbook will ignite, in students, the desire to do well in English, and the flame will continue to burn outside the classroom and far beyond their high school years.
