Vocabulary notebooks
Enc ourage yours tudents to record new wo rds i n a n otebook
They can group wordsaccording to the topic or bypart of

Vocabularydoesn'tjust appearon Vocabularypages,You can
ask studentsto make a list of allthe verbsthat appear ina

Learning phras es
W e o ften l earn w ords in i solation, bu t a vocabu lary item can
be more t han one word,e.g.surf the Internet, h ave a shower.
Make student s aware of th is and encourag e t hem to r ecord

Revision
Regularly r evise previous ly learn ed set so f vocab ulary.Here are
t wo games y ou could try in cla ss:
• Odd o ne ou t Gi ve f our words , either orally or w ritten on
the board.Studentssaywhich is the odd one out You can
c hoose three words from one vocabu lary set a nd one word
f rom a different set (a re lati vely easytask) or f our words
fromthe sameset, e.g.kind , confident , rude, friend ly,where
r udei s the o dd one out as it 's the on ly word wit h negative
co nnotations.
• Word tennis This game can be playedto revise wordsets
Call o ut words i n the set, and nomi nate a student to answer.
The student must respond with anotherword in t he set.
Continue around the cl ass
Students mu st not repeatany previous wo rds For example,

Deali ng with difficultvocabulary
H ere a re s ome idea s:
• Pre-teach vocabulary Anticipate w hich w ords stud ents wilt
havedifficulty with Put them on the board before you read
the textwiththe class and pre-teach them You can combinethis with apredict ion activitybyputti ng a iist of words on
the boa rd and ask ing st udents to guess which oneswill not appea r in the text F or examp le , for th e text about kung fu on
page 22 of the Student's Book,listthese words:
training practise kicki ng b lond e fight
grandmother da ng erous
Ask studentsto look atthe pict ures an tell youwhichtwowords theyare not goingto find inthetext (grandmother
andb londe) At the sametime,check that theyunderstand
the othe r five w ords.
• Hav ing rea d t hrough the text on ce, te ll st udents to write
downthreeor four words from thetextthattheydon'tunderstand.Then askthem to callout thewords You can
th en exp lain or t ranslate them.
• Rat her t han i mmediately ex plaining d ifficult vocabulary,
ask stude ntsto identify the partof speechof thewordthey
don't know Know ing the pa rt o f sp eech s ometimes helps them to guess the mea ning.
• Afterworking on a tex t, ask s tudents t o cho ose fou r or fi ve

they wili be silent This means:
• encou rage and praise your students when they speak.
• do not over -co rrect or interrupt.
• ask ot her students to be quiet and attentive white a

• listen andreactwhena st udent speaks, wit h phrasesiike
'Really?' or 'That's interesting'.

and i ntonation.
Teaching m ixed ability cl asses
Teaching mixed ability classes is demanding an d c an be v ery
fru strating Th ere are no easy so lutions, but here are some
ideasthat may help
Prep aratio n
T ryto anticipate problems and prepare in advance Draw up
a listof thefive strongest students in the class and the five
weakest Think about howthey willcope inthe nextlesson
Whichgroupislikelyto posemore of a problem- the st ronger
stud ents because they'll finishquickly and get bored, orthe
slowerstude ntsbecausetheywon't be able to keep up?Think
howyou will attempt to dealwit h this.The Teacher' sBook
i ncludes id eas and sugge stion s for activities and fillers for
different abil it ies,
Indepe nd en t learnin g
T here is the tem ptat ion in class to give most of your attention
t o t he h igher-level students s they are more responsive and
they keep thelesson moving.But whichofyourstudentscan
b est w ork on their own or in pairs ? I t' s often the stronger ones,
so co nsider spending more time in class with the weaker ones ,
and findingthingsto keepthefast-fl nlshers occupiedwhil e the
to k eep a diary in E nglish o r work on a project T he y ca n turn
to these whenev er they are wa iting for the rest of t he clas s to finish an activity
C orrecting mistakes
Howmuch we correctshould depend on thepurpose of the
activity The key que stion is: is the activitydesigned to impro ve
acc uracyor fluency?
Accu racy
With co ntrolled grammar and vocabulary activities, where
the emphasis is onthe accurateproductionof a particular
language point, it's best to co rrect aU mistakes, and to do so immediatelyyou hear them You want your students to master the forms now and no t repeat the mistake in later wor k
Fluency
With activities such asrol e-playor freergrammar exerci ses it may be better not to int errupt and correct every mistake you hear The i mportant mistakesto correct in these cases are those that cause a breakdown in communication We shouldn't show interest only in the language ; we should also be asking our selves, ' How well did the students commun i cate?' During the activity you c an make a note of any ser i ous grammat ical
and lexicai errorsand put them on the board at the end of the
activity.Youcan thengo through them with the wholeclass
Selfcorrect ion
Give stude nts a chance to correct themsel ves beforeyousupply the correct ve rsion.
Modelling
When you correct an indiv idual studenta lway s ask h im or her
to repeat the answ er afteryou correctly
Peercorre ct io n
Yo u can invol ve the rest of the class i n the process of cor rection Ask:I sthat answer correet?Youcan do t his when the stud ent has gi ven a correct answer as weU as when the
a nswer is incorrect.

nineteenth century to describe a school that was publicly
managed as opposed to privately owned by teachers.Themost famous public schools are Eton [irtan] (attended by
Princes William and Harry) and Harrow [hrercc], for boys
and Cheltenham ladles' College (tJelt,nom] and Roedean,
[raodim], for girls.The students often live at the school
during term time The schools put a strong emphasis on
discipline sport and religion,
In the USA, however.publicschoolis the same ass tate school.
