Designed for beginning-level ESL students, Facts &amp; Figures, 3/e is the first in a three text reading series which teaches discrete reading and vocabulary-building skills. It assumes that learners begin with a base vocabulary of 300 words and teaches approximately 500 new words. It also teaches the reading skills of comprehension, finding the main idea, and using the context to understand vocabulary items. The CNN-based video clips provide students with a wealth of authentic language and the accompanying video activities give them the opportunity to go beyond the text by using the vocabulary they have learned in the unit while building their oral/aural fluency.
