Speaking Al the lessons in face2face Pre-intermediate and the Class Activities photocopiables provide students with numerous speaking opportunities. Many of these activities focus on accuracy, while the fluency activities help students to gain confidence; take risks and try out what they have learned. For lueney activities to be truly fluent, however, students ‘often need time to formulate their ideas before they speak and this preparation is incorporated into the Get ready Get it right activities, For Teaching Tips on Speaking, see p18, Reading and Writing In the faco2Hae Pre-ntermedite Students Book, reading texts ftom a wide variety of genres are used both to present new language and to provide reading practice.

Grammar Grammar isa central strand in the face2face Pre-intermediate syllabus and new grammar structures are always introduced in context ina listening or a reading text. We believe students, are more likely to understand and remember new language if they have actively tried to work out the rules for themselves, ‘Therefore in the Help with Grammar sections students work ‘out the meaning and form of the structure for themselves, Ipefore checking in the Language Summaries, All new grammar forms are practised in regular recorded pronunciation drills and communicative speaking activities and consolidated through written practice.

This helps ‘them to ‘tune in’ to spoken English and connect what they hear with what they read. © When students need to listen and write their answers, you can stop the recording after each answer in second and subsequent listenings to give them time to write ‘Use the activities for the Songs on Student’ Book p100-p101 at the points suggested in the course ‘© Encourage students to listen again to the classroom, recordings on their CD-ROM/Audio CD on their computer at home.

If itis difficult for students to swap places in clas, you can ask them to work with students infront of or behind them as well as on either side of them. ‘© tis ofien useful to provide a model of the tasks you expect students to do. For example, before asking students to talk about their family in pairs, you can tak about your family with the whole class to give students a model of ‘what they are expected to do, # Remember that students often find speaking activities rmuch easier if they are personalised, as they don’ need to think of ideas as well as language. ‘© Go around the cass and monitor students while they are speaking in their pits or groups. At this stage you can provide extra language or ideas and correct any language or promunciation which is impeding conmmunication. ‘© Avoid becoming too involved in speaking activities yourself unless you see students have misunderstood your instructions or you are asked for help. As soon as you join 4 group, students often stop talking to each other and talk to you instead *# When giving feedback on speaking, remember to praise good communication as well as good English and focus ‘on the result ofthe task as well as the language use Correction * When you hear a mistake, itis often useful to correct it immediately and ask the student to say the word or phrase again in the correct form. This is particularly effective if the mistake relates to the language you have been working, com i the lesson Alternatively, when you point out a mistake to a student you can encourage hinv/her to correct it himseliferself before giving himvher the correct version, «© Another approach to correction during a freer speaking activity is to note down any mistakes you hear, but not ‘correct them immediately. At the end ofthe activity write the mistakes on the board. Students can then work in pairs and correct the mistakes, Alternatively, you can discuss the mistakes with the whole class. + You donit have to correct every mistake when students are doing a freer speaking activity, particularly when the mistake is not specifically inthe Language they have been asked to practise, Effective communication is often just as important as accuracy Vocabulary ‘© Give students time to work through the exercises in the Help with Vocabulary sections on their own or in pairs. ‘This gives students the opportunity to try to work out the rules themselves before checking in the Language Summaries.

Helping students with stress and intonation * Drill all new words, phrases and sentences, and pay particular attention to words that sound different from hhow they are spelled ‘= When you write words or sentences on the board, mark the stress in the correct place or ask the students to tell you which syllables or words are stressed. ‘When you model sentences yourself, it may be helpful to overemphasise the stress pattern to help students hear the stress. You can also ‘beat’ the stress with your hand. ‘© Emphasis that intonation isan important part of meaning in English and often shows how we feel. For example, a falling intonation on the word please can sound very impolite toa native English speaker. ‘+ Show the intonation pattern of model sentences by drawing arrows on the board or making hand gestures. ‘+ Hum the sentences you are focusing on. It is sometimes easier for students to hear the stressor intonation pattern when there are no words. Teaching Tips Drilling ‘© Make sure students know the meaning of new language ‘before drilling this with the class ‘* When you model a phrase or sentence, speak at normal speed with natural stress and contractions. Repeat the target language two or three times before asking the whole class to repeat after you in a ‘choral drill ‘© Atier choral drilling it is usually helpful to do some individual drilling. Start with the strongest students and dil around the class in random order As the aim of drilling is accuracy, you should correct students when they make a mistake. However, avoid ‘making the students feel uncomfortable and don't spend too long with one student © Praise students for good/comprehensible pronunciation and acknowledge lower level students’ improvement, even if their pronunciation isnot perfect. Use ‘mumble drills, Ask students to say the phrase or sentence to themselves initially, then increase the volume ‘each time until they are speaking ata normal volume. Shy students often appreciate the chance to say things quietly until they feel more confident ‘+ Use chain drills to revise vocabulary. Students sit in a semicircle, Give an object (ora picture) to the student atone end and ask Whats this?. The student replies es 4... , takes the abject, turns to the next student, asks What this? and so on. Meanwhile, give a new object to the student atthe other end and repeat the process. At regular intervals, feed in more objects at each end so that there are several going around at the same time Reviewing and Recycling Use the Quick Reviews atthe beginning of each lesson. They ae easy to set up and shold take no more than five to ten minutes, They ae a good way of geting the class to speak immediatly as wells reviewing what students learned in previous lessons ‘+ Exploit the Review sections at the end of each unit, They ‘can be done in class when students have finished the unit, ‘or set for homework (see the Extra practice and homework boxes inthe Teaching Notes). Alternatively individual exercises can be used as quick fillers at the beginning or end ofa lesson, as the Review exercises are organised in lesson order. © After a mid-lesson break, ask students to write down cone minute all the words they can remember fom the first part of the lesson. These quick What have we just learned? Activities help students to transfer information from their short-term to ther longterm memory. «Start a class vocabulary box. You or the students write cach new vocabulary item on a separate card and put it in the hox. The cards can be used for activities which revive ‘vocabulary for example, Know, Might Know, Don’ Know Gee p20) 4 Ecoumge students to use the faoe2face CD-ROM/Audio CD to review each feson at home and to review neve language by reading the Language Summary fore lesson ‘© Set homework after every class. The face2face Pre-intermediate Workbook has a section for each lesson in the Students Book, which reviews all the key language taught in that lesson. Teaching Mixed Level Classes In Pre-intermediate lasses, teachers are often faced with a ‘mixture of Elementary and Pre-intermediate student. If this isthe case in your clas, try some ofthe following suggestion. ‘+ Work at the pace of the average student. Try not to let the fastest or slowest students dictate the pace. # To avoid stronger students dominating, nominate the quieter ones to answer easier questions ‘Allow time for students to check their answers in pairs ‘or groups hefore checking withthe whole class. # Encourage stronger students to help weaker ones, for example, ifa student has finished an activity, ask hinvher to work with a slower student. Give students time to think by asking students to write down the answers rather than shouting them out. This, helps avoid the more able students dominating the class. ‘# When monitoring during pair and group work, go to the lower-level students first to check if they have understood the instructions and are doing the activity correctly. ‘Plan which students are going to work together in pair and group work. Mix stronger students with weaker ones when they can give help, for example, ina vocabulary matching activity. On other occasions, for example, in freer speaking activities, it is oien a good idea to place stronger students im the same group, Loveer-level students may fel more confident speaking with other students at their own level. 4 Inactivities where students work on their own, ask them to put up their hands as they finish. Fast finishers ean, check answers together while they are waiting ‘© Have ideas for extra activites to give early finishers to do while the slower ones are still working, for example, an exercise from a Review section or the Workbook. ‘+ Dont feel that you have to wait for everyone in the cass to finish an exercise. It is usually best to stop an activity when the majority ofthe class have finished. Vary the amount and type of correction you give according to the level of the student, in order to push stronger students and avoid overwhelming those who are less. confident. Remember to praise successful communication as well as correct language. # Grade the tasks you set students, for example, when students are practising conversations on the recordings, less able ones can read the recording seript for support. + Be flexible in the number of questions, sentences, etc, you expect different levels of students to produce «In progress checks, acknowledge improvement as well as final performance. 1 Set weaker students extra homework from the Workbook or the CD-ROM/Audio CD to help them catch up with areas of language the rest of the class is confident with Classroom Activities and Games - These Classroom Activities and Games can be used to practise a variety of different language areas in class, The Teaching Notes suggest when they can be used alongside the lessons in the Students Book, Board Race This activity i useful for revising vocabulary. You need a classroom where students ean stand in two lines in the centre of the room, facing the board + Divide the class into two teams. Each team stands ina line facing the board. Divide the board into two columns with the headings Team A ard Team B. *# Give the first student in each team a board pen. + Give students a topic (for example foodddrink or places in a townvcity) and a time limit (for example, three minutes). ‘© Say Go. The first student in each team runs to the board, ‘writes a word associated with the topic in hisher team’s colunan, runs back and gives the pen to the second student, who does the same and so on. Students can help ‘other members of their tam, ‘When the time is up, students sit down. Check answers ‘with the whole clas. Teams get one point for each answer, one point for each wort/phrase that is spelled correctly and one point for each answer notin the other team list The team with the most points wins. Know, Might Know, Don’t Know ‘This activity helps you o find out what vocabulary students already know Its a good activity for mixed level classes, as sironger students cat teach lower-level students vocabulary that they don’ know © Before the lesson, write a worksheet containing 15-20 words or phrases you want to teach of review ‘+ Photocopy one worksheet for each student. ‘+ In clas, give each student a copy of the worksheet. Tell students to divide the words into three groups: Know (know this word/phrase and can give an example or definition), Might Know (1 think 1 know this word/phrase but Tm not sure) and Dont Know (1 dont know this ‘word/phrase). ‘+ Students work in pairs or groups and compare their answers. I one student knows a word, he/she should teach itto hisher partner or the other members ofthe group. Alternatively, students can move around the room and. talk to various students ‘© When they have finished, students say which words/phrases they still don't know. Encourage other ‘groups to give definitions to help them, or give the ‘meanings and examples yourself ‘© Allow time for students to reeord any new vocabulary in their notebooks.
