All Around New Edition is a fully updated and improved version
of the best seller All Around.
While still focusing primarily on the learning of the English
language, the topics, activities and resources in this new edition
have been carefully redesigned to teach the whole child –

and entertaining CLIL projects and social emotional competences
activities. A Big Question now establishes the central topic of
the unit and promotes critical thinking, curiosity and interest
in learning. As students acquire and practise extensively the
necessary language skills in English, the series also helps them
develop themselves socially and emotionally at the same time.
