This amounts to over 4500 everyday words and expressions. The pictures make conversation and interactive learning easy.Unlike standard "picture dictionaries," Lexicarry stimulates talk, lots of talk, while students build their speaking skills and learn vocabulary.Students learn by discussing the objects, places, and activities in the drawings, working together in pairs, as a class, or with native speakers. The illustrations are not labeled, and this naturally challenges and excites the students' imaginations and helps them retain the language. The brilliant colors and often humorous drawings add to the fun of working with Lexicarry.This revised edition has some minor technical vocabulary updates and corrects a printing issue from the last printing.
