           The aim of the research is to deal with the problem of multimodality as a field of study investigating the common as well as the distinct properties of different modes in the multimodal mix and the way they integrate  in  teaching process  and communicative  events in general. In the era of digital and technological advancement , in the epoch of computerized classrooms , we see the increasing role of  multimodal mix in teaching / learning  process.    With the help of contemporary classroom   equipment   and  modern  handbooks  we  provide our students with  rich multimodal  teaching  materials, so that  they have  access  to  different  modes  : - verbal, textual, visual, graphic, audio and video.   The use of all  these  modes  is aimed  at   providing our students  with the variety  of  linguistic and nonlinguistic forms  to help them  develop their  communicative competence.
