Product Description

Product Description
Contatti 1 Activity Book is a brand new workbook to accompany Contatti, the first-stage Italian course for adult learners, providing a wealth of new material designed to reinforce and extend the material in Contatti 1 Student's Book. It mirrors the fourteen units of the coursebook offering a variety of exercises, homework tasks and self-access activities to consolidate language input and provide further practice. Each unit contains:

* topics reviewed with further vocabulary and extension activities
* reinforcement and clarification of grammatical structures with additional tasks and exercises
* extra reading material and stimulus to writing

The final page in each unit contains an overview of the whole unit with extra reading and writing activities, a short text of cultural interest and a self-assessment checklist enabling students to review what they have learnt. Units 7 and 14, which are revision units, provide proficiency tests on all the material covered in previous sections. The book finishes with a complete Answer Key.

The Activity Book is a valuable resource for learners and teachers alike. It can be used to complement the coursebook, providing extra material for fast learners or homework activities to consolidate what has been learnt in class. It can also be used for self-access and as a general practice workbook for beginners and false beginners in Italian.

3.0 out of 5 stars Useful complement to Contatti, 10 Dec 2003
By Christine L (Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This book has a lot of useful exercises to do at home between classes to practise all the new grammar that's been introduced in the different chapters. It also has a key to all the exercises so you can check them yourself.

A word of warning though. The instructions aren't always very clear, particularly not to beginners, so you might need a teacher to explain them to you. There are also no explanations so it's not always easy to see what you've done wrong and why it's wrong. Furthermore, there's a lot of typos, both in the main part of the book and in the answer section so don't always accept something as wrong, do ask your teacher if you think it's supposed to be right.

4.0 out of 5 stars Practise Italian, 12 Jul 2009
By Susan J. Hutt (Nottingham, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
You need some background of Italian to be able to use this book- ideal accompaniment to lessons, for extra practice. Needs to be used in conjunction with other methods, eg CDs.
