1 & 2 Revise and Check

Transcription

1 1 & Revise and Check There are two pages of revision and consolidation after every two Files. The first page revises the grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation of the two Files. These exercises can be done individually or in pairs, in class or at home, depending on the needs of your Sts and the class time available. The second page presents Sts with a series of skills-based challenges. First, there is a reading text which is of a slightly higher level than those in the File, but which revises grammar and vocabulary Sts have already learned. Then Sts can watch or listen to five unscripted street interviews, where people are asked questions related to the topics in the File. You can find these on the Class DVD, [Tools, and Class Audio (audio only). Finally, there is a speaking challenge, which measures Sts' ability to use the language of the File orally. We suggest that you use some or all of these activities according to the needs of your class. In addition, there is a short documentary film available on the Class DVD, and itools on a subject related to one of the topics of the Files. This is aimed at giving Sts enjoyable extra listening practice and showing them how much they are now able to understand. Sts can find all the video content and activities on the {Tutor.
