This book deals with the main aspects of everyday life and develops basic vocabulary,  grammar and speaking language skills to reach level A2 language competence.

VOCABULARY
About 1000 basic vocabulary items, and over fifty words which are likely to occur in adult foreign speakers’ everyday life.

MORPHOSYNTAX AND SOCIO-COMMUNICATIVE ACTIONS
Basic Grammar forms and uses for A2 level.

SKILLS
• The exercises are based on reading comprehension skills and language production skills (guided and free, written and oral).
• All of the exercises have been designed for developing both writing and speaking skills – for class use or self-study  – and offer the possibility of developing group dialogue and conversations.
• Examples are provided so as to give teachers some hints on how to exploit the text , by extending every  “grammar sentence”  with the conversation which can be generated from it: «Really? Is that really so? And what do you think? Why did this happen? When? Who said that? And what about you? And what about him instead?».

The 5 W
In every unit  the emphasis is placed on the questions (such as Who? What? When?) which are likely to be used in daily speech when speaking about everyday topics.

APPENDIX
• A 1000 word glossary;
• The 100 verbs that are most frequently used in Italian;
