505			_a"Focus on Writing is a five-level series that prepares students for academic coursework. Each book in the series gives students an essential set of tools to ensure that they master not only the writing process, but also the grammatical structures, lexical knowledge, and rhetorical modes required for academic writing. The series provides an incremental course of instruction that progresses from basic sentences (Book 1) and paragraphs (Books 1-3) to essays (Books 3-5). Grammar presentation and focused grammar practice are correlated to Focus on Grammar." (To the Teacher, p. iv)
