However,<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Time Zones<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">also follows a rich, thematic content <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">syllabus. Real-world content is used as a springboard for introducing the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">language that students need to become effective communicators in <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">English.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"markedContent\"><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">As with the grammatical syllabus,<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Time Zones<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">teaches the highest-<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">frequency vocabulary in the earlier stages of the course, with relatively <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">lower-frequency vocabulary appearing only in the higher levels of the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">series. Along the way, more specialized vocabulary is occasionally <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">introduced so that students can develop a meaningful understanding <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">of it, as well as be able to talk about the real world topics and issues <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">introduced in<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Time Zones<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">. Key vocabulary is recycled systematically <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">throughout the series.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"markedContent\"><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">The vocabulary and grammar is well integrated throughout the series. For <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">example, students might learn the grammatical structure<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">can<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">to talk about <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">abilities in a unit on animals\u2014learning to talk about what animals can and <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">can\u2019t do\u2014before going on to personalize the language and talk about <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">themselves and their own abilities.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"markedContent\"><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Ideally, the units of<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Time Zones<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">will be taught in order and no units will be <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">skipped.
