The Structure of the Course
          In the units of the textbook, there is a balance between a stable and reliable structure, which serves as a point of
          reference for the students and instructor, and a great variety of (textual and audio-visual) input.

                p. 1 Pronti?: initial motivation with the activation of prior knowledge and the emotional involvement of
                     the students. The pre-listening and pre-reading activities are aimed at stimulating curiosity and

          presented in the unit, as well as in previous units.
          Supplementary Grammar: a more in-depth explanation of the grammatical structures presented in the unit.
          A/B Activities: communicative assignments, often with a gamified structure, in which each student (or group of
          students) has access to different information (provided in the appendix) and is asked to complete an information
          gap in a creative way.

                                                                                      Good luck as you get started!
