Because they still work Consequently, the changes you will find in this new edition have been influenced by three important factors: 1) Your feedback, which we are happy to say has been overwhelmingly positive and extremely helpful in identifying areas to focus on 2) Changing circumstances, where we have responded to the continuing evolvement of some exams – for instance: a stronger focus on Use of English tasks 3) New opportunities, in particular the strategic partnership between our publisher Pearson and the BBC This has enabled us to include some delightful BBC clips in each unit, adding an exciting new dimension to the course All that said, we still believe that writing language learning materials is not an exact science A ‘one size fits all’ set of materials just doesn’t exist It can’t There are too many variables: • The students – number, age, personality, attitude, life and learning experience, home support, class dynamic … • The school – syllabus, timetable, policies, Ministry reforms, classroom environment, equipment … And most importantly, you: • The teacher – your experience, your training, your beliefs, your motivation … So we accept that everybody’s teaching context is unique and the perfect English course is an unattainable dream However, our own experience in the classroom has taught us to value three things above all when using teaching and learning materials: reliability, flexibility and credibility Reliability Quite simply, we want the materials to work We don’t want the course to let you down in the classroom So we continue with our clean design, clear, easy-to-understand instructions and a wide variety of engaging topics, texts and tasks that have been combined in a logical way that will make sense to you and to your students We are pragmatic We’ve made it clear when a lesson starts and when a lesson ends We don’t want to give you any nasty surprises We don’t want to overcomplicate things The less time you spend setting activities up, the more time your students spend practising the language And maximising language practice time is key – particularly for the core skills Students learn by doing They learn reading by reading more; listening by listening more; writing by writing more; and speaking by speaking more Let’s give them more time to ‘do’ Needless to say, the course covers all the necessary language work appropriate for the level and follows the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) We hope you will appreciate the stimulating and memorable way in which each carefully selected grammar structure and vocabulary item is presented But we are well aware that presenting language is not even half the story We have designed these materials so that they systematically recycle the language that has been presented ‘Use it or lose it’ is our motto You will discover that this course, with all its supporting print-based and digital materials, provides your students with the repeated exposure and practice they require Reliability = trust We are confident you will be able to trust Focus Second Edition Flexibility One of the things we learnt early on in our careers is that you teach the students, not the lesson plan There is no point in slavishly following a prescribed ‘teaching path’ through a set of materials if the students are not with you Your ability to react to emerging classroom situations and adapt your lesson accordingly is a vital teaching skill So while a course might provide you with a reliable framework that you feel comfortable with, you will always need options, you will always need variety, you will always need alternative ways of presenting and practising language We strongly believe that a rigid unit structure does NOT have to be a teaching straitjacket The lessons themselves are brimful of different ideas, task types and interesting information Then the supplementary material we have developed, both print-based and digital, offers you almost limitless flexibility You can give extra multiple choice grammar exercises, a communicative A/B information-gap activity or watch a specially selected BBC clip Flexibility = choice We think you will appreciate the range of choice in Focus Second Edition T4 Credibility So, while we are sure that a reliable and flexible course will help you, it’s this third characteristic that really counts You have to believe in the materials You have to understand and assess the broad educational and methodological principles that underpin our materials and decide: are the ideas and the approach credible? Do they reflect your own views of how languages are learned? We’d like to take this opportunity to summarise our thinking on this and explain what lies at the heart of Focus Second Edition We can this by grouping our thoughts under three words beginning with ‘M’: Motivation, Memory and Meaning Motivation The American linguist and philosopher Noam Chomsky once said that almost everything in the education process was about getting the students’ interest in what they’re being taught This is our starting point: students learn best when they are interested in the material It’s as simple as that We may not have got it right every time for your particular teaching context, but our overriding concern has been to select topics, texts and tasks that engage students both emotionally and intellectually You need to organise the learning around things your students can relate to – things that are part of their life experience or things that they aspire to An engaged learner is a more successful learner We think course materials can play a big part in this key area of engagement Memory ‘Learning is remembering’, or so the adage goes With the pressure all teachers are under to cover the syllabus, complete the course and finish the book, we worry that not enough time is spent on recycling Too much presentation, not enough practice Systematic recycling of new language is a core feature of Focus Second Edition There is a particular emphasis on vocabulary The linguist David Wilkins noted back in the 1970s that while we can convey very little without grammar, we can convey nothing without vocabulary Words are the basic building blocks of any language, but how many times you need to see a new word before you truly acquire it? Ten? Twenty? Thirty times? It’s definitely more than once! In the new Word Store sections, students using Focus Second Edition will devote valuable time to new vocabulary, as well as learning a variety of ways of recording it Meaning As the linguist and academic Rod Ellis reminds us, motivation in second language learning is derived from getting meanings across successfully We are strongly opposed to mechanistic practice and drills where form dominates and meaning is irrelevant If you ask your students to choose the correct quantifier in the question: How much/ many petrol is there in the car? I’m sure most of them will correctly choose much But they might also legitimately wonder whose car we are talking about And then think, ’But I don’t have a car I’ve never bought petrol in my life I can’t even drive …’ Why not ask them to choose the correct quantifier in this question: How much/many water do you drink? Then, when they have chosen the correct quantifier, they can at least ask their partner the question Information is exchanged; students practise their speaking; the exercise is meaningful, not meaningless This is one tiny example of an approach to learning that we passionately believe in Don’t practice language for the sake of it Language exists to make meanings, and our learning materials should reflect this These are some of the more important ideas that we hold dear Over the years, they have influenced our teaching and our writing Credibility = belief We want you to believe in Focus Second Edition So, now it’s over to you We’d like to take this opportunity to wish you and your students every success Our warmest regards, Sue and Vaughan T5 Focus Unit walkthrough VOCABULARY LESSONS Inspiring quotations to be used as conversation starters or to find out what students already know 1.1 The SHOW WHAT YOU KNOW boxes revise vocabulary students should already know, thus enabling all the students in the class to start at the same level VIDEO VOCABULARY 1.2 SPEAKING Look at the photos and discuss the questions Then listen and check your ideas Personality • un-, in-, im-, ir-, dis• questions with like What is the purpose of the charity organising these activities?
