The information we gathered fon that tiip, and mary subsequent trips ecross Cental and astern Europe, gave us valuable insighs into what secondary students and teachers want from a new book. These became ‘ur guiding principles while writing Solutions. Most people we spote to asked for: + a clearfocus on exam topics and tasks ‘+ e25y-to‘fllow lessons which alnays have a clear outcome + plenty of support for speaking and writ «plenty of extra practice material In response, we designed a book which has a crystallear structure: one lesson in the book - one lesson in the classroom. We included twenty pages of extra vocebulary and ‘grammar practice within the Student's Bock itsel o provide more Resibity. We included ten specifi lessons to prepare students forthe school-leaving exam, and ensured thet the book as a whole corresponds tothe syllabus topics required in this exam, And we recognised the dificultes that students naturally heve with speaking and writing, and therefore censured that these activities are always wel prepared and well ‘supported, Achievable activities are essential for motivation! ‘Our research trips also taught us that no two schools orciassos are identical That is why Solutions is designed to be fexible. ‘There are five levels (Elementary, Pre-intermeciate, Intermediate, Upper-intermediate, Advanced) so that you can choose the one which bes its your students’ needs. Solutions has benefited from collaboration with teachers with ‘extensive experience of teaching 14~19 year olds and of preparing students for ther school leaving exam. We would Uke to thank Marta Umifisk for sharing her expertise in writing the procedural notes inthe Teacher's Book. Cultural and language notes as well asthe piotocopiable supplements inthe Teacher's Book were provided by Caroline Krantz. ‘We are confident that Solutions wil be easy to use, both for students and for teachers.

They can group words according tothe topic or by part of speech. Tellthem to write a translation and an example sentence that shows the word in context. ‘Yocablary doesn't just appear on Vocabulary pages. You can ask students o make a ist of al the verbs thet appear in a Grammar section, or to choose Five useful words from a reading text and leam them, Leaming phrases We often learn words in isolation, but a vocabulary item can bbe more than one werd, eg. surf the Intemet, have a shower. ‘Make students aware ofthis and encourage them to record phrases as well as individual words. Revision Regularly revise previously learned sets of vocabulary. Here are two games you could try in class: + 04d one out. Give four words, elther orally or written on the board. Students say which isthe odd one out. You can choose three words rom one vocebulary set and one word from different set ( relatively easy task) or four words from the same set, eg, kind, confident, rude, friendly, where rude is the odd one out as its the only word with negative connotations. + Word tennis. This geme can be played to revise word seis. Gall out words in the set, and nominate a student to answer. ‘The student must respond with another word in the set.

This allows students to master the basic form and use frst, ‘without having to think about what they are trying to express at the same time, Teaching reading Predicting content ‘Before reading the text, ask students to look at the picture and tell you what they can see or what fs happening, You can also dizeuer the title ané lope with them ) Introduction Dealing with difficult vocabulary Here are some ideas: * Pre-teach vocabulary. Anticipate which words students will have aificuty with, Puc them on the board before you read the tex with the class and pre-teach them. You can combine this witha prediction activity by puting alist of words on the board and asking students to guess which ones will not appear in the text. For example, forthe text about kung fu on age 22 ofthe Student's Book, list these words: training practise kicking "blonde fight grandmother dangerous ‘Ask students to loak at the pletures and tell you which two Words they are not going to find inthe ex! (grandmother ‘and blonde). Atthe same time, check that they understand the other five words, ‘+ Having read through the text once, tll students to write ‘down three oF four words from the text that they don't ‘understand, Then ask them ta callout the words. You ean then explain or translate trem, + Rather than immediately explaining difficult vocabulary, ask students to identify the part of speech ofthe word they don't know. Knowing the pat of speech sometimes helps them to guess the meaning. © Alter working on a tex, ask students to choose four or five new words from the text thet they would like to learn and to write these in their vocabulary ntebcoks.. Teaching listening Preclistening This an importent stage. Listening to something colcis nat 5% 59 prepare the students well, Focus on tesching rather than on testing.

Put new vocabulary on the board and ‘re-teach it.
