5.0 out of 5 stars A great workbook, November 7, 2006

By	Annell Wayman (Kirksville, MO United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This workbook is very useful for providing more practice for ESL students learning new English vocabulary. It also opens topics for discussion which help students practice other related words and ideas. It is very helpful to have the page numbers matched exactly to the pages in the Oxford Picture Dictionary (and the Oxford Beginning Workbook) so that students of different levels can work together on the same subject, but at their own level.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, multi-skill workbook....not just vocab!, December 19, 2007

By	David Paransky (Laguna Niguel, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

While this workbook focuses on the vocabulary in the picture dictionary that goes with it, it nonetheless is a multi-skill workbook! It is not just a vocabulary workbook. It requires not only acquisition of the vocabulary itself, but also, comprehension of the vocabulary IN CONTEXT. Furthermore, learners must often write complete sentences, thus putting the new vocabulary into useful, authentic language.

If you buy the dictionary, which is a very interesting, user-friendly, and useful book, then I highly recommend that you purchase this one as well. The two together are an excellent study tool. I suggest that all of my students buy them. They can work with them alone, and also, we can work with them together.
