extra ideaS
● If you have a class of complete beginners, teach the
instructions yourself first. Then look at the pictures in
Language Summary Welcome real world 0.2
(SB p127).
● If you have a strong class, you can do Study Skills 1
Classroom language (p233) at this point in the lesson.
This worksheet reminds students of the language
they need to communicate with their teacher in class.
Alternatively, consider doing this worksheet in later
lessons, or giving it for homework.

extra idea
● Tell students to look at Audio Script CD1 8 on SB p155.
Play the recording again and allow students to listen and
read. Note: in face2face students are often directed to
the Audio and Video Scripts in the back of the Student’s
Book, as listening and reading at the same time can
help students ‘tune in’ to sound–spelling relationships in
English.
7 a CD1 9 pronunciation Play the recording.
Students listen and repeat the questions in 6a.
b Students ask four other students the questions in
6a and write down the answers. Students can either
move around the room or talk to students sitting

extra idea
● Students spell out their names to you. Write them on a
large sheet of paper and put it on the classroom wall to
help students remember one another’s names.

students understand that we say Hello or Hi when we
meet someone and Goodbye or Bye when we leave
them.
Students practise the conversation with other
students.
Progress Portfolio Welcome!
● Progress Portfolio sections encourage students
to reflect on what they have learned. This
approach is consistent with the need for students
to think about their own language learning as
required by the Common European Framework
of Reference for Languages (CEFR). There is
a Progress Portfolio section for each unit in
the Student’s Book in the Extra Practice and
Progress Portfolio section SB p115–p126. More
information on how to use these sections is given
in the teaching notes for unit 1, p37.
● Students can also work on their own and tick
the things they can do. Encourage students to
check new language in Language Summary
Welcome, SB p127.
● Students can also work in pairs or groups and
compare which statements they have ticked.
extra idea
● Students close their books, then work in pairs and
tell their partner three things they can do in English.
Students should demonstrate their ability to do these
things to their partners.
