developed;

¢ describes the course and its components We hope you will find it useful and enjoy working

with Friends!

Friends for Students

Friends is a four-level English course for upper primary and lower secondary schoolchildren, taking young learners from zero beginner to a pre-

intermediate level of English competency Students

in this age range are in the transitional period

between childhood and their teenage years They are still developing intellectually and emotionally and at their own individual pace Each level of Friends addresses the learning needs and interests

of such students and has been specifically written for their cognitive level

Friends 1 takes into consideration that children between the ages of ten and eleven are very

receptive to visual, auditory and kinaesthetic cues They need to be offered a wide variety of exercises

and activities in order to maintain their interest and motivation It is also easier for them to learn the

language step by step All of these factors are

reflected in the design of Friends 1 Language is

introduced step by step which makes it easier for

students to understand and remember Songs and

games help students to practise grammar in a fun way and ensure that they will not get bored during

their English lessons

Fun elements are also included in Friends 2 and

Friends 3 Friends also ‘grows’ with students in terms of the vocabulary and topics exploited The

amount of cultural information is increased in Friends 2 and Friends 3 to add more information to the students’ knowledge of English-speaking countries around the world

Friends for Teachers

Friends has been designed with busy teachers in mind

Lesson preparation

The format of units in the Students’ Book guarantees successful lessons Clear headings and

predictable exercise sequences make Friends very easy to teach with little preparation by the teacher Extension ideas and photocopiable activities in the Teacher's Resource Book and the Activity Book offer a flexibility to the basic pattern of the lesson Festival pages and Culture and Reading Corners provide extra material, which can be used as a break during grammar-based lessons

The Activity Book offers further exercises for

homework As the exercises strongly reflect themes

and language from the Students’ Book input,

teachers don’t need to spend too much time on

explaining the homework tasks to their students

Evaluation and assessment

Teachers are now expected to monitor students’ progress and make regular assessments, which has

greatly increased an already heavy workload

Friends provides support for assessment in each

Teacher's Resource Book which contains

photocopiable tests Yet more tests are available in the Test Books The Test Books offer extra help with assessment by supplying ready-to-use charts

for keeping records of students’ grades

Dealing with mixed-ability classes

One of the most difficult issues teachers are faced

with are mixed-level classes Friends offers support with this problem For very able students, more

challenging exercises are included in the Activity

Book, and more complex test tasks in the Tests

Book Weaker students or students who have never studied any English before will benefit from the substantial amount of revision throughout Friends,

the Check Yourself tests and the initially slow pace

of the course Projects and the play will allow all students to contribute to the class, irrespective of their abilities Even the weakest students can

participate and enjoy a sense of real success

Friends has been designed for varied teaching

situations Students will range from zero beginners to pupils who have had up to five years of English in primary school For this reason Friends offers two possible entry points

Friends Starter entry is suitable for complete

beginners or students who have had a small

amount of exposure to English, perhaps through oral work or songs Friends 1 is a suitable entry point for students who have experienced a minimum of two years of primary English While these students are still very young, they can now

cope with the more difficult aspects of Friends 1 due to their previous exposure to the language The first half of Friends 1 covers the same grammatical

items as Friends Starter, but with a wider scope of knowledge and lexis; the second half introduces new language This dual entry system makes Friends a very flexible course, appropriate for

groups of students at varying levels

Introduction

Principles behind the course

1 Motivating students

Memorable materials

Language is made memorable through exciting and memorable materials For this reason great care has been taken in Friends to present language items in distinct thematic unit types There are three such unit types in Friends Starter, and four thematic unit types in the other books of the series In this introduction the different thematic units are called strands

The common denominator of the four strands is that they are all about friends There are friends who learn together, those who experience crazy adventures together, those who keep in touch through a Friends’ Club and those whose friendship grows through episodes of two stories It is the friendship between the characters which makes their lives interesting and ensures that Friends is always very motivating for students

The four strands in Friends 1 are:

¢ The Londoners The first strand follows the lives of a group of schoolfriends living in London Students can identify with the Londoners, who are of the same age as them Through this strand students learn the language they need for everyday situations Students also learn about life in Great Britain

® Crazy Gang In the second strand, five cartoon characters and a naughty cat allow language items to be presented in a humorous context Students always enjoy humour and the language is made memorable to them through funny situations, songs and jokes

© Friends’ Club The third strand is a magazine for friends around the world The magazine is run by two editors and features letters and interviews from children all over the world Students can identify with the lives of other children in the world

and learn the language presented in situations

common to all the children at a similar age ® Story Time In the fourth strand, two fiction stories are used to introduce new language items The first story is set in a legendary land of Norland and the second one in a mysterious house in Blackdown Wood As the students become involved in the stories the new language items are imprinted on their minds for easy recall

Fun in Friends

In addition to the four strands which make the book very varied, Friends is bursting with new ideas, activities and exercises which are so

interesting that students will be tempted to read the book and do the exercises in advance! The book has songs, chants, games, puzzles, projects, quizzes and two plays to perform The very high quality of photos, illustrations and audio material will add to students’ motivation and desire to learn These factors make Friends lively and inspiring, and in such a rich context language is easier to remember

2 The three-step methodology

Each input unit is divided into three steps - Presentation, Comprehension and Practice These clear headings make the teaching sequence very easy to follow

The type of Presentation differs according to the strand It is either a photo story, a cartoon, a

magazine with letters and interviews or an episode

of a story Comprehension tasks are varied and include matching, multiple-choice exercises, true/false sentences and answering questions Practice sections progress from guided exercises to freer activities towards the end of the unit as students become more confident with the new language they are learning Activities exploit listening, reading, writing and speaking and thus as well as practising the new function or grammar item, they also practise the four skills

3 A strong grammatical syllabus

While Friends is a multi-syllabus course, covering communication, vocabulary and skills, special emphasis has been placed on the grammar syllabus

Grammar is introduced methodologically and gradually It is always followed by thorough practice exercises This approach organises the framework of the language in the minds of the students

The Activity Book units offer the unique feature of a Language Diary, which complements the Students’ Book units The difference is, however, that students are asked to complete the grammar paradigms they have learned They can use the Students’ Book for reference and check if they remember the new grammar

Finally, attention is also paid to exceptions to grammar rules and common mistakes for young learners Be careful boxes highlight potential grammatical errors Subsequent activities then help eradicate such mistakes in students’ work

4 Teaching vocabulary

Vocabulary is taught in a highly controlled manner New words are presented in the Presentation sections No new words are introduced in the Activity Book or in the Revision sections The very

few new words used in the Culture and Reading

Corners are introduced in the context of

illustrations Numerous exercises in the input units, Revisions and the Activity Book help students to retain the new words

Study Skills boxes within the units introduce students to various ways of remembering new vocabulary

5 An emphasis on skills

Trang 5

No new grammar items are presented in these units, so students can focus on the skills themselves For

the same reason, the vocabulary in the Culture, Reading and Skills Corners is carefully controlled

For further exposure to spoken and written language outside the classroom, plenty of reading and writing is provided in Friends to consolidate

oral work

6 Friends Reading Programme

Although all four skills are thoroughly developed in

Friends, there is special emphasis on reading Reading is an especially important skill as it enables

students to become independent learners Through

reading, students learn new vocabulary and spelling, recycle grammar and learn how to

structure written texts The Reading Programme in

Friends 1 has been developed in recognition of the importance of reading and it consists of:

© Story Time strand - two captivating stories

introduce students to fiction;

© two Reading Corners - introduce Penguin

Readers to students;

© eight Skills Corners in the Activity Book focus on

reading Stickers are used for reading

comprehension to make reading an active task The interest in the stories in the course encourages

students to have a positive attitude to reading

outside the classroom

7 Communication Programme

Speaking is the most difficult skill to teach and it

requires a lot of practice Friends offers step-by-step

speaking development, from very controlled exercises which practise the language to less guided

activities and games A photocopiable speaking

activity is included for each unit, there are games in

Revision sections and there are projects in Culture and Reading Corners In addition to all these components, there are two plays which are

designed in such a way that all students in the class can participate All of these activities require pair

work or group work They develop speaking as well

as communication skills They create an

environment for co-operation and friendship in the classroom

8 Exposure to culture of English- speaking countries

Skills practice in Friends is connected to familiarisation with English-speaking countries

There are two Culture Corners in Friends Starter and Friends 1, and four Culture Corners in Friends 2 and

Friends 3 They introduce students to the idea of English being spoken in many countries, not just Great Britain By introducing children from these

countries, students become familiar with the

lifestyle of their friends around the world

Introduction

9 Testing system

Frequent testing and evaluation gives students a sense of achievement and prepares them for

difficult exams in the future It is also a source of information for teachers as to whether remedial

teaching is necessary The Friends testing system comprises:

© Check Yourself tests in the Activity Book;

© Check Tests in the Teacher’s Resource Book;

¢ A and B Language tests in the Test Book;

¢ A and B Skills tests in the Test Book

Check Yourself tests and Check Tests test the same

material and are a short and quick way of assessing

progress

Tests in the Test Book have an UCLES exams orientation In addition to the Language tests which

cover every module, there are Skills tests after every

two modules

The grading chart which is included in the Test Book introduction offers a way of evaluating students that shows how they do separately in every skill, and in grammar and vocabulary Using the chart, teachers can easily find out about their

students’ strong and weak points and can be more constructive in their feedback

10 Building confidence

Building confidence has also been given special consideration in Friends as it is a very important factor for young students who are just starting to learn a language

The input units all follow the same pattern so that students can quickly recognise and learn what is expected of them Activities are as simple as possible to set up and rubrics are clear and short This helps students to feel in control of their

learning and therefore confident

Most importantly, the expectations of the Friends

course are realistic for students of this age The

objectives of each unit are achievable and exercises

are manageable The number of new words

introduced is controlled to make them manageable

Nothing seems too difficult to understand to the students and their confidence is reinforced for successful learning

The components of the course

The components at each level are:

* a Students’ Book;

* an Activity Book;

a Teacher's Resource Book; © a set of class cassettes; ® a Test Book with a cassette

They have been very carefully planned to create a coherent system of materials catering to all of a

teacher's and a student’s needs The chart How

Components

The Students’ Book

The Friends 1 Students’ Book contains eight

modules Each module consists of four input units, where language items are introduced and practised Each of the four input units is part of a distinct strand The Londoners follows the everyday life of four schoolfriends from London Crazy Gang portrays a group of crazy cartoon characters and a naughty cat in humorous situations Friends’ Club presents letters and interviews with children all over the world Story Time includes two stories: The Monster of Norland and The Mystery of Blackdown Wood Every module is followed by a Revision unit, which recycles material from the module Revision units are divided into Vocabulary, Pronunciation, Grammar and Fun Time sections

Every second module is followed by a Reading Corner or a Culture Corner - an integrated skills unit in which all four skills are systematically exploited

In addition to the above, the Students’ Book

contains:

* Starting Point to introduce students to classroom language, colours, cardinal and ordinal numbers, months and articles;

© Festival Pages to be used as a nice break from the regular pattern of input and revision units The units are graded in language difficulty so that they are appropriate to tackle at the right time of the year;

¢ Two Plays for the end of the term and the end of the year school performances;

© Word list organised unit by unit and covering all the vocabulary of Friends 1

1 Specific features of the Students’

Book input units

Warm up

Most units in Friends 1 begin with a warm-up activity, which introduces the main topic of the unit to the students In The Londoners it’s often an informative text about London or the Londoners’ lifestyles; in Friends’ Club it is an Editors’ Letter introducing the main topic of the unit; and in Story Time it’s Remember the story!, which summarises previous episodes of the story

Presentation

The four thematic ‘strands’ expose students to a variety of text types Target language is presented in a meaningful and interesting context, making learning a pleasurable experience The dialogues or texts are always recorded and can be presented in a variety of ways You may decide that students should listen to them first with their books closed - or that they should follow the text in the books It is advisable to play the text twice or make students

WW

repeat the phrases of the dialogues so that they can read or act them out fluently

Beginning from Episode 2 of every story there are

short pre-reading tasks called Remember the story! in the Story Time strand They concentrate on the content of the story rather than on the language, as their role is to motivate students to read on Ask weaker students to answer Remember the story! questions It will help them to see that they remember the vocabulary and the story and thus will build their confidence

Comprehension

Every input text is followed by a comprehension exercise which develops understanding It is a very important step which helps teachers see if students understood the text or dialogue and whether some words or phrases still need to be explained There

are several types of comprehension exercises -

questions, true/false sentences, multiple-choice and matching tasks

Language boxes

Language boxes focus on new language items introduced in the presentation texts and dialogues

Language boxes usually follow the comprehension exercises However, in some modules of the Students’ Book, there are examples of Language boxes preceding comprehension exercises because students will need the new structure in order to answer the comprehension questions

In some units there are two Language boxes Be Careful boxes

These boxes highlight special difficulties in order to help students avoid certain language errors

Study Skills boxes

These boxes help students memorise vocabulary by providing them with various ways of retaining new words

Practice

All Language or Be Careful boxes are followed by practice exercises Grammar exercises consolidate the target structure They also enable the teacher to see if students are able to manipulate the target language They start from very controlled practice, which is a comprehension of the box, and move on to freer exercises at the end of the unit

The Practice exercises are varied and consist of listening, speaking and writing exercises They can

be done individually, in pairs or in groups

Listening exercises

Trang 11

experience of the sound system, rhythm, intonation

and stress of English

There is a variety of listening exercises in Friends, some of which check the general

comprehension of the text and some of which train students to listen for specific information

Speaking exercises

The ability of learners at this stage to express themselves fluently in spoken English can be hindered by their lack of an extensive vocabulary and incomplete knowledge of the English grammar system

Most students will know little or no English at

the beginning of the course, so a lot of the early

speaking exercises are controlled Fluency materials are introduced slowly in the course As students’ linguistic resources develop and their confidence increases, the emphasis of speaking exercises gradually changes from practice of the underlying grammar or structure to freer oral expression in

communicative contexts

In addition to the speaking exercises in the

Students’ Book, in the Teacher’s Resource Book

there is a photocopiable communication activity to

go with each input unit The activity gives yet

another opportunity to recycle the vocabulary and

grammar introduced in the unit and build students’

confidence in speaking

Writing exercises

The writing exercises in the Students’ Book begin with practice at sentence level This language has usually been practised orally first Students then progress to longer texts consisting of paragraphs

It is very likely that the written tasks will be used

for homework, but it is useful to do some writing

exercises in class so that you can monitor and help students while they work

Songs and chants

The songs and chants focus on, or consolidate, new language items They are often used for listening

activities, but they can also be sung and chanted by the students The songs and chants in the input unit are linked to the content or topic of the particular unit in which they occur, so they can be a

meaningful and enjoyable part of the lesson for the

students

2 Specific features of the Students’ Book Revision units

Revising material very often is very important at this young age Revision sections are after every four input units in Friends 1

Vocabulary revision

Vocabulary exercises in the Revision sections consolidate vocabulary from the whole module By using various types of exercises (organising words into sets according to topic, dealing with synonyms and antonyms, selecting odd words), they help students remember the vocabulary better

Components

Pronunciation revision

Pronunciation exercises are worthwhile activities

because clear, intelligible pronunciation can be achieved by young learners Exercises include thymes, tongue twisters and word repetition These exercises are designed to build in an awareness of individual sounds to prepare learners for the more

in-depth phonological work in the upper levels of

Friends They are also a nice break after vocabulary exercises and before the hard work awaiting

students in the grammar section

Grammar revision

Grammar sections consolidate the language from the input units The exercises are very varied and very often practise language through games and

activities

Fun time

After some hard work on grammar, students can

relax by playing a game and they will not even realise that this is, in fact, another way of practising the language they have just learned! Learning English can be great fun!

At the end of each Revision unit, after completing the relevant section in the Activity Book and Check Yourself test, teachers may wish to set one of the relevant photocopiable tests from the Teacher's

Resource Book

3 Specific features of the Students’ Book Culture and Reading Corners Both Culture and Reading Corners are a vehicle for skills practice The four skills are practised

thoroughly Grammar structures and vocabulary from previous input units are recycled and new

lexical items are controlled to enable students to

focus on skills development and increasing fluency

Culture Corners allow students to learn about and

engage in cultural topics through the medium of

English

Reading Corners introduce short stories to show students that they can read and understand quite long and complicated texts at their level

Projects

Reading and Culture Corners conclude with projects These provide students with opportunities to work individually, in pairs or in groups on a piece of work which incorporates their own ideas All of the students’ projects, not just the best ones, should be displayed so as to encourage the less able

students

Students’ Book cassettes

The class cassettes contain all the recorded material from the Students’ Book This includes all

presentation texts, listening comprehension

exercises, pronunciation exercises, songs and

Trang 12

Components

Activity Book

The Activity Book exercises are intended to be used for homework However, if time allows, they can be

done in class and treated as an additional revision of the unit

Certain parts of the Activity Book, such as Skills

Corners, require the teacher’s guidance, particularly when they are done for the first time They may contain exercise types that have not been

introduced in the Students’ Book

Friends 1 Activity Book contains the following sections:

Input units

The four double-page units in the Students’ Book have corresponding double-page units in the Activity Book Each unit in the Activity Book opens

with a Language Diary, which is a précis of a unit

in the Students’ Book and includes the following

sections:

* I can complete Grammar boxes to complete

Students should be able to complete these boxes

without referring to the Students’ Book

However, there is always the Students’ Book to

check in case of doubt

® I know these words New vocabulary for students to remember from the unit They can translate these words into their first language The Language Diary should be treated as a personal section which helps students to better remember

new language They should be allowed to complete

the boxes on their own It is also meant to help

them do the exercises that follow

The Language Diary is then followed by the exercises organised in Vocabulary and Grammar

sections, which reflects the Students’ Book Revisions

There is a Use your English exercise at the end of

each Revision section This is an exam-oriented type of exercise, which is also quite difficult and could

be treated as an extra activity for better students

Check Yourself tests

Every cycle of four units is followed by a one-page

self-assessment test Through these regular tests

teachers can encourage students to evaluate their own progress and understand what they need to review On completion of the test, students evaluate

themselves using the key from the back of the Activity Book Then they can use a sticker from the

stickers page at the back of the Activity Book to mark the completion of a module

Please note that there are corresponding tests in this Teacher’s Resource Book The Check Yourself

tests and the Teacher’s Resource Book tests are A

and B versions of the same test The tests in the

Activity Book should be treated as practice before

the ‘real’ test

Skills Corners

Every Check Yourself page is followed by a Skills

Corner page Its aim is to practise reading and writing skills Stickers are used for reading

comprehension and for motivating writing Stickers

_H

are a very powerful tool at this age They are motivating and turn difficult tasks into memorable

and fun activities

Please note that the stickers are at the back of the

Activity Book

Friends 1 Quiz

The quiz at the back of the Activity Book is a summary of the material from the Students’ Book Students are expected to answer questions about

the characters and friends they have met in the

course Test Book

In addition to the tests in this Teacher's Resource Book, the Test Book offers additional Language tests

and Skills tests The task types are similar to the ones in UCLES exams, particularly at KET level The level of Friends 1 is obviously lower than that required for the KET exam, but the idea is to slowly introduce students to exam requirements

The tests allow teachers to keep a thorough and regular check on students’ progress and evaluate the need for remedial teaching As they test skills as well as grammar and vocabulary, they provide an opportunity to asses students’ progress in all areas of language learning, including listening

Both the Skills tests and Language tests have two versions ~ A and B These two versions can be used so that students sitting next to each other are not able to copy Alternatively, Test A can be used first

and Test B can be used to check improvement after

remedial teaching

The following sections are in the Test Book: ¢ Introduction which offers help with grading
