Teaching Collocation extends the ideas first proposed in the Lexical Approach and developed in Implementing the Lexical Approach. It is essentially practical with many sample activities and exercices. Teachers describe what they are already doing in their classes. Their stories provide a guide for other teachers on how they too can introduce real change into their classrooms.
