**** ETNI on the web http://www.etni.org.il http://www.etni.org **** I have to use _Spotlight_, ECB, and unfortunately I don't like it. The graphics are too distracting, and they don't "milk" the texts enough, not enough vocabulary and grammar reinforcement. My group is a weak 9th grade yeshiva hs. We searched all the available books and found nothing "better." If you have some real suggestions, I'd appreciate it. Please don't tell me that you disagree; that won't be helpful. Personally, I just don't like the books that "speak to" the students, telling them that as teenagers.... That's me. I wish there was something more like _Rescue 2_, UPP, but harder and more grammar, or the 10th grade books we're using, _Full Volume_, UPP, and _New Trends_, ECB.
