vi High School Workbook: NorthStar, Second Edition: Reading and Writing, High Intermediate
INTRODUCTION
The High Intermediate High School Workbook supports the NorthStar High Intermediate
Student Book by providing students a place to write answers to exercises that appear in the
Student Book. For example, students can go to Unit 7 of the High Intermediate High
School Workbook and find a copy of the vocabulary chart in the High Intermediate Student
Book, Unit 7, page 153.

Because it is usually not possible for high school students to write in their books, students
can fill in the missing words in their Workbook instead. The Workbook table of contents
and the Workbook pages always indicate the corresponding page number in the Student
Book.

The High School Workbook does not provide space for extended writing assignments such
as essays or research reports. Students may use either their own notebook for these
purposes or do their writing in a computer lab. This will allow students to develop a
portfolio of their writing that can be assessed periodically or at the end of a term.

or questions. Enjoy the Northstar High School Workbooks!
