Trang 4Reading tasks
There are no reading tasks in the Trinity GESE
examinations so it is essential that the reading
texts are regarded as a springboard for discussion
and vocabulary extension It is usually a good idea
to draw students’ attention to any captions or
pictures related to the text and ask them to
anticipate what the text is about Then students
could be asked to skim the text At this point you
may like to explain problem vocabulary or elicit
definitions from the students Students will need
10-15 minutes to read the text in greater detail or
you could ask them to read through the questions
and scan the text Exploit the text and questions as
much as possible to generate the language of the
level
Note:
• Skimming – reading the text quickly to get a
general idea of what it is about
• Scanning – reading through the text looking for
specific pieces of information
Listening tasks
This guidance is to help teachers with the
general listening tasks in each of the units in this
book, not for the listening tasks for Grade 10.
Prepare students for the listening by using any
illustrations or headings, then by telling them who
the speakers are, how many of them there will be
and what they are going to talk about
It might be helpful to mention register and
regional or national accents as they need an
awareness of English as a global language
Introduce any difficult vocabulary As the students’
listening skills develop, you may wish to skip this
introductory phase and elicit the relevant answers
from the students after the first listening
Read through any questions or true/false exercises
before playing the CD again Students should then
complete the tasks If the students are still having
difficulty understanding the text, play the CD
again, stopping where necessary for further
explanation Encourage students to discuss any
problems they had understanding the listening
and to reflect on any issues raised by the speakers
Brainstorming subject areas and vocabulary
Try and engage the students’ immediate interest inthe subject area by focusing on the pictures andgetting them to talk about them in pairs beforemoving on to group or class discussion Monitorthe pair work to ensure that only English is beingspoken and that they are concentrating on thetask you have given them The questions aredesigned to provoke discussion but if you feelthere are other questions on the subject whichthey will relate to, try asking them At this level, it
is important students are sufficiently stimulated towant to express themselves well in English on awide range of subjects
You can approach new vocabulary in a variety ofways At this level students should be encouraged
to become more independent and useEnglish/English dictionaries or the Internet to look
up new words However, if you feel students arenot yet ready for this, it could be introducedgradually with individual students asked toprepare definitions for the next lesson orparaphrases of terms and expressions You couldthen concentrate on explaining more complexvocabulary Translation should be avoided
Group & pairwork & role play
Group and pair work is a most effective tool ingetting as many students as possible speakingEnglish at the same time Insist, right from thestart, that only English is spoken and at this levelstudents should be encouraged to help andsupport each other with any difficulties Role playcan be extremely useful for less outgoing studentswho feel more comfortable ‘being someone else’and it can be a way of bringing characters alivefrom the Listening or Reading texts
Procedures file
Trang 5Procedures file
Grammar focus
The Grammar focus sections include the main
structures for Grades 9 and 10 as well as revision of
more complex areas Some time should be spent
introducing each structure and students should be
given the opportunity to discuss nuances of
meaning and form
Students should then be given thorough oral
practice before moving on to the exercises
Function focus
The Function focus sections draw students’
attention to the functional language they need to
be able to use at Grade 9 and 10 Give them every
opportunity to absorb this language by
completing the tasks and using it in speaking
activities They are most likely to be using it in the
Interactive phase of the exam
Exam expert
The Exam expert section in each unit gives the
students thorough preparation in the specific skills
needed for each phase of the exam Many of the
activities are designed to ensure that students
produce exactly what is required of them during
the examination You may, however, need to
remind them of the procedures and to monitor
their work Above all, encourage them to be
positive and creative, speak English at every
opportunity and thoroughly enjoy the Trinity
examination experience!
Trinity Takeaway
At the end of each unit, the Trinity Takeawaysections provide the students with usefulexaminer/candidate language for the exam It’simportant that you point out to learners that theymustn’t memorise the mini-dialogues, but usethem as examples of the type of conversation theywill have with the examiner
There is also a section a the end of the Student’sBook (pages 86-92) with further examples ofexaminer/candidate language, which arerecorded
After listening, you can:
• ask students to read the mini-dialogues outloud to practise question/answer intonation
• ask students to write similar mini-dialoguesusing different vocabulary from the unit

Listening,page 7
3a Explain to students the importance ofunderstanding different English accents Tellthem they will hear speakers from countries such
as India, the United States and the UK talkingabout technology
Tell students that for the first listening they arelooking for specific information: what kind oftechnology has changed each person’s life
1 mobile phone 2 computer 3 medical technology
4 computers/chatrooms 5 MP3 player
3b Advise students that they will listen again andnow need to find out how this technology haschanged each person’s life
Maria can share personal experiences and compare
notes with others on the Internet; Kieran notes how
medical technology has brought about many
changes in India; Dani is able to communicate easily with her family while far away; Mike has been able to
lose weight in an enjoyable way
3c Make sure when students are working in pairsthat they give reasons for their choice Remindthem to listen carefully to what their partner says,take notes and be ready to report back to the rest
of the class

on the computer
He has a lot of friends from home, travelling and
university
He enjoys telling his friends all the trivial details of his
life and finding out about theirs

peer: look curiously/searchingly
sad: pathetic
like-minded: sharing the same ideas and
opinions
trivial: ordinary/unimportant
post (photo): display online

up with a few fun ideas to start off with, anything,
in fact connected with lobster and coconut–romantic dinner in a five star restaurant/fishingfor lobster You may need to explain the meaning
of the following words:
huddled: crowded together; snuggle: find a
warm comfortable place; wolfing down: gulp, eating very quickly; hearty: (in this context) substantial; lapping: washing against; fidgeting:
moving restlesslyStudents should listen three times so the firsttime they can be reasonably relaxed, get used tothe speaker’s voice and listen for gist

partner about any dreams or nightmares they can
remember
1bEncourage students to skim the text in just a few
minutes and then tell their partner what they
have found out about dreams Ask them to
highlight or note down the main points They can
examine the texts in more detail in exercise 1c
They may find it surprising that many people
have multiple dreams in the night and also that
dreams are considered to be a biological
necessity
1c Now give students 10-15 minutes to read both
texts and answer the questions
1 Dreams are events or stories that occur in the mind.
2 We all experience brain activity during sleep.
3 It is when your eyes move rapidly backwards and
forward under your eyelids
4 We often forget dreams because of antibiotics,
high stress levels or alcohol consumption or even
too much or too little sleep
5 Because they are frightening and often wake you
up and often take place in the early morning so
you are more likely to remember them
6 They help us resolve issues or problems in our
daily lives
7 People can be more stressed or irritable.

4aLook at the explanation on gerunds and
infinitives There are many verbs and expressions
that are followed by a gerund or infinitive and
these exercises concentrate on the most
common You may need to give more examples:
I love watching TV
I don’t mind learning English.
She wants to be a teacher.
Verbs followed by gerund: enjoy, can’t stand, deny,
don’t mind, avoid, consider, suggest, can’t help
Verbs followed by infinitive: refuse, persuade, decide,
agree, offer
4b
1 can’t stand 2 refused 3 enjoy 4 avoids
5 decided 6 agreed 7 denied 8 offered
5aExplain that remember/forget + gerund refers
back to something you did before the moment
which you remember or forget it whereas
remember/forget + infinitive refers to things at the
moment of remembering/forgetting
Examples: I remember (now) living in Germany
(30 years ago)
He forgot (sometime in past) to post the letter
1A You can remember now posting the letter in
the past
B You remembered before you posted the letter.
2A You finished doing your homework because
you wanted to watch the football
B You finished watching the football.
5bTell students this is a general revision exercise of
gerunds and infinitives (i.e there may be verbs
not referred to in this section) Remind them that
a verb after a preposition will always be a gerund
1 having 2 meeting 3 to take
4 shouting 5 to send 6 to take
