In the Loop is an innovative 4-level course designed specifically for lower secondary students. It is a perfect combination of Macmillan’s expertise in teaching English as a Foreign Language and the interests of teenagers, who will have a lot of fun and information while learning a new language.

In the Loop not only engages students in the real use of the language, it provides life skills work with a variety of activities that prepares students to become responsible citizens aware of their roles in the 21st century. Its topic-based units offer a balanced practice of the four skills. The activities are carefully structured and well-staged allowing students to consolidate unit aims and experience results.

The components offer the flexibility teachers need to create a perfect class for their students’ needs.

· The Student’s Book with combined Workbook facilitates classroom management.

· Real-life topics will keep students engaged.

· Texts and activities offer invaluable opportunities for students to apply their critical thinking skills and broaden their cultural awareness.

· Integrated Life Skills activities for every unit provide more than language development.

· A Grammar Reference page at the beginning of each unit in the Workbook offers students language support and teachers a helpful tool for grammar presentations.
