2 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
wh ich, 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, iTools, 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 iTutor.
