Description
At the core of the English language learning pathway formulated by the CISCE, from primary to upper primary and onwards to secondary school, lies not merely the learning of language rules and writing formats, but the gradual acquisition of accuracy, fluency, felicity of expression and stylistic confidence. Burlington English Grammar World for ICSE Schools recognises that Indian learners often engage with English as an additional language and therefore builds grammar from the familiar to the unfamiliar through diagnostic assessment, concept recall and productive practice.
The course combines structured grammar teaching with meaningful application, helping learners understand form, use and context in an integrated manner. Its enriched vocabulary programme introduces learners to words, expressions and figures of speech, while its comprehension and composition sections help learners connect grammar with reading and writing activities. The course is well supplemented with print and digital resources for both teachers and learners, ensuring enriching classroom experiences.
