Part III- Functional Language

Circle the correct words/phrases ( 5x2p=10p)

Most teachers these days will work very hard to have a good relationship with their pupils/people. They
encourage their students/siblings to say honestly what they like and don’t like about their lessons/ clothes and
often discuss together what they can do to make sure both get the most/ the least out of their time at school.

This wasn’t always the case, and many of today’s children would have quite a shock if they suddenly found
themselves in a school a few hundred years ago. Unless they behaved very well/badly, of course!
