J strengthen communicative s! a Explore the structures and use of the English language. Recycle and retain previously learned language. Is. Understand language use in context Students must encounter language in context to see how it is used. Every lesson in Attitude begins with exposure to the language in situations which allow the user to make a personal connection with the topic. In order to take a more active role, users are often invited to comment on or discuss an aspect of the theme before any formal explanations are introduced, Strengthen communicative skills ‘Most students evaluate their language ability by how well they can speak. Speaking starts early in Attitude and is often integrated with the other skills to encourage communication. All skills in Attitude are practiced interactively: both the listening and the reading tasks encourage students to actively construct meaning and respond appropriately. Writing is often a forgotten skill, but in Attitude it forms an integral part of each lesson, and is given a special place in Develop your writing sections which present and practice varying aspects of the writing process. In the fourth lesson of each unit, students have an additional opportunity to use newly learned language in the context of a real life task carried out with a group of classmates. Not only do students use English to negotiate the task with their fellow students, they also further extend their command of the language by comparing their process to that of a group of native speakers they hear performing the same task. Explore the structures and use of the English language In Attitude, grammar is presented and practiced in a straightforward yet meaningful way. Students are often presented with an inductive task in which they have to figure out how the structure works in English, discovering both use and form. They then have opportunities to practice that structure and the chance to connect the language with their own world, feelings and memories. The Develop your learning section introduces further learner training techniques to help students become better learners. Gi) Recycle and retain previously learned language Repetition is very important in language learning, but quality repetition is vital. Attitude has three built-in, Unique ways of recycling the language within and between units to ensure recall: * Lesson four in every unit has been written to reintroduce and re-contextualize the language in the previous Unit, taking into account the language accumulated up to that point in the book. The aim is to reinforce understanding of the language and how it is used, through real-world tasks. * Language is also reintroduced by the Language Resource sections found at the end of each unit. These are more than just summaries of grammar and vocabulary, they promote an active, awareness- raising process of review. The Review units are a user-friendly way of revising. They have a test-like quality but are also varied and fun to do. {As each lesson in Attitude progresses, the language needs of the learner evolve. They need more challenging contexts in which to stretch their English to the limits. So Attitude builds on the topics and activities of the lessons ial stages, focusing increasingly on freer tasks where students have the opportunity to explore the language as it relates to their own experience. Attitude gives students a unique opportunity to find their own voice and to be who they really are The Authors FeSUBECE: r=, We'd love to hear how Attitude is working for you.

Check the answers to Exercise 2b in open class and make sure everyone has the correct answers. ‘Although the pronunciation of the English alphabet has been covered in an earlier unit, i is important fo review this potentially difficult area. Take advantage of opportunities to have students spell words aloud in English. Getting feedback on an exercise is a good ‘example. Ask students to spell their answers fo exercise 2b, and write exacily what they ‘soy on the board. For example, if they say sitiing is s-e-t--e-n-g, write setfeng on the board. They will quickly realize that their pronunciation of the letters is incorrect. Encourage students fo correct each other's pronunciation. Ask students to compare their answers to Exercise 2d with a partner or in small groups. Then listen to some of their sentences in open class and correct any errors. Draw attention to the Glossary, and make sure students uriderstand all the words, in the box in Exercise 2e before they do the exercise, particularly called and Jonely.
