ABOUT THIS BOOK:
The New Concept English for Senior Secondary
Schools series has been designed for teaching
and learning English language at the Senior
econdary chools level and offers an impeccable
platform for preparing students for the
enior econdary chools erticate Eamination
(WAEC and NECO) in English language.
Based on the contents and requirements of
the NERDC Curriculum for English language
learning at the Senior Secondary level, the wellstr
ctred lessons in the series are lled ith
a wide variety of fun and learning activities to
build and challenge the competence of learners
in the use of English language, and to make
serious learning truly exciting.
carel and deliberate effort has been
made to teach the four basic language skills,
namely listening, speaking, reading and
writing, in each of the books. This explains the
reason for the adequate reading content and
language exercises in the entire course.
The activities in the text are diverse, but
with greater emphasis on speaking, listening,
and problem-solving – all designed to
jump-start discussion and fuel English language
conversations, with the aim of helping
students solve problems through collaborative
strategy- sharing. The level of challenge and
diclty in the contentrich activities in the series
is appropriate for each class, with clear and
ellthoght ot differentiation ithin levels
This book has 19 units and appendices
highlighting holiday assignments, words often
mispronounced, phonetic symbols, words often
misspelt, irregular verbs and listening texts.
The Oral English component describes the
sounds being taught. Students are given the
opportunity to master the pronunciation of the
sounds through dialogue practice and writing
practice. Reminders and Tips included in the
various sections of the book help students to
remember what they have learned in all the
four basic language skills, and also to equip
them with consummate skills to learn and
discover new things. The grammar component
teaches a particular topic, often reinforced
through exercises and pair work. The reading
component helps stdents to reect and
discuss, summarise and draw conclusions. The
writing component is taught through guided
composition, where students are engaged in
reective thining t is important to state that
the listening texts have been included as an
appendix to the book. This is done to discourage
students from reading the texts in advance.
There is no gainsaying the fact that the
eclectic approach to teaching and learning
English language adopted in the series is
perhaps the best on offer to meet the evolving
needs of English language teachers and students
in Nigeria.
