Focus on English Form 4

Description

Focus on English 4 is the last in a series of four books based on the revised English syllabus. Published by Focus Publishers, this Student’s Book follows the integrated approach to the teaching and learning of English, covering listening and speaking skills, grammar, comprehension, summary writing, literature and writing skills for Form Four students.

Focus on English 4 uses topical issues such as HIV/AIDS, poverty eradication, technological advancement and the use of polite language to make learning relevant and contemporary. Themes directly affecting the target group have also been included to ensure students can relate to the content. In recognition of the emphasis placed on the development of writing skills in the revised curriculum, the authors have included sample compositions written by students at this level to illustrate the different writing skills covered in the course. These essays are designed to entertain and motivate learners while introducing them to the joys of writing. Test units given after every three units aim at ensuring students master the content covered and afford the teacher an opportunity to guide students on examination techniques as a way of preparing them for KCSE. These test units are further reinforced by two summative tests modeled on standard KCSE exam papers. Three appendices included in the book are invaluable for general information and preparation for KCSE exams. The authors are Mary Consolata Mudachi (Head of English at Kianda School, Nairobi) and John Muthiora (Head of English at Strathmore School, Nairobi), both highly qualified with vast experience in teaching English.
