Oxford Word Skills is a series of three books for students to learn and practise new vocabulary. Oxford Oxford Word Skills Word Skills Level 1: Intermediate (CEFR level B1) upper-intermediate/advanced (CEFR levels At and A2) (CEFR levels B2 and C1) There are over 2,000 new words or phrases in each level, andl all of the material can be used in the classroom or for self-study. How are the books organized? Each level contains 100 units cf vocabulary presentation and practice, with a unit being 1-2 pages, depending on the size of the topic. New vocabulary is presented in manageable chunks, then immediately followed up with practice exercises, usually on the same page. The units are grouped within modules containing 3-10 units. A majority ofthe modules are topic-based, eg, People, Food and drink, Study and work, but some modules have a language focus, £9. Prepositions, Adjectives and adverbs, Verbs. The Elementary level also contins: © alist ofall the'spotlight’bores * alist of word:-building tables * alist ofirregular verbs an answer key forall the exercises * Word list an index of all the vocabulary taught with a unit reference to where the item appears Orford Word Sklss directly linked to the Oxford Advanced Leamers Dictionary app, which allows leamers to find the meaning of new words in Englsh and provides a pronunciation model forthe words. You will ind pronunciation ‘exercises throughout the bookwhich refer you to the @ to check the correct pronunciation. HEE troduction What vocabulary is included? ‘At Elementary level, the vocabulary includes: ‘a wide range of common topics, eg. clothes, ree time, at the airport «© words and phrases needed in social interaction, eg. inviting people, meeting and greeting + areas of lexical grammar, eg prepositions, verbs, adjectives and adverbs ‘Throughout the three levels the main focus is on high-frequency vocabulary in everyday spoken English, although the bigher levels increasingly add more language from different styles of English as well as more figurative use of language. ‘The selection of vocabulary at each level is based on frequency and usefulness, with the foundation being the Oxford 3000™. This is lst of 3000 words identified by the Oxford YY} University Press ELT Dictionaries team as the most important words for learners f English ‘These items have been divided into four levels in accordance with the CEFR leves (AI, A2, B1 and B2). ‘© The Elementary level includes many iterns from Al, but with the majority of items at A2 level ‘© The Intermediate level has afocus on B1 items from the Oxford 3000, as well as recycling some items from the Allevel ‘© The Upper-ntermediate/Advanced level concentrates on B2 items from the Cxford 3000, but also includes 82 and CC items from the enlarged Oxford S000™ word lst The Oxford 3000 word isis supplemented by the Oxford Phrase List™, containing just under 1,000 phrases considered important for students at these levels; and topic lists from OUP learner's dictionaries, which identify key vocabulary items across a range of 60 topics. By using the Oxford 3000 alongside the topic lists, we are able to focus on high- frequency vocabulary, but alsoto include vocabulary items that may not have a high frequency overall, but will have great value in particular contexts, eg. main course in a restaurant, or hand luggage at an airport. By using the Oxford Phrase List, we are also able to ensure the best coverage of both words and phrases at each level ‘We have taken great care to ensure that learners will be able to understand the meaning of all the new words and phases by supplying a clear illustration, a simple definition, or an example of each word or phrase. Learners should bbe aware that many English words have mote than one meaning They should refer to the Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary for information on other meanings. In the Elementary level, there is also alist at the back of te book of al the Al items from the Oxford 3000 that have ‘not been taught. The reason fortis is that the Elementary level makes some assumptions about very high frequency level ters which learners should already be familar with. if there are words here that students do not know, they can goto the @ to check the meaning and pronunciation. ey words are sometimes repeated in later units in the book, but may not be highlighted in bold. students do not recognize the word, they should lookin the Word List to see where the itern was introduced and defined, or use the @. Such recycling is usefulfor leamers. To the teacher How can | use the material in the classroom?

I don't know why, because we've got a er Visuals obviously provide a clear guide to meaning; the tables and texts show words being used in natural sentences, with the meaning explained in a glossary (within a table or beside a text). As the input in most sections occupies a page and does not usually exceed 15 items, itis very straightforward to use in the classroom, Here is a procedure you could follow: «Students study the visuals or written text in the presentation for at east ten minutes. This allows time for them to reinforce the connection between the visual input and the meanings, oF to read through the glossary carefully to check the meaning of the new itersin the presentation sentences, dialogue or extended tex. Tell students to look at the extra words includec in the glossary (opposites, synonyms, derivatives, collocations and further examples) as this will help them to expand their vocabulary with minimal effort in many cases. Iti also important to look at the spotlight boxes. This san adcltional feature which picks out an item or items of particular valve, for example, these spotlights on else anc on the difference between far, house and home HDS rocction ‘While students are working trough the presentation, you can answer any questions they may have about the items. This is also an opportunity to provide a pronunciation model for your students to repeat; otherwise the presentation stage is going to be a long silent phase. You might want to read a text aloud, or get students to read sections oft etc. ‘* Students can move on to the fist exercise, which they can check for themselves using the Answer Key, or you ‘can go over the answers withthe whole class. This is probably a better approach as you can also discuss why they ‘might have arrived at a wrong answer and focus on / practise pronunciation tis sensible fo work through the exercises chronologically as they tend to progress from receptive practice to controlled productive practice, and then quite often to freer productive practice in the ABOUT YOU / ABOUT YOURCOUNTRY activities '* When you are satisfied with their answers to the first exercise, you can ask students to go on to further exercises, while you monitor them as they work individually or in pairs, and assist where necessary. When they have finished an exercise, you wil find that many of them ~ sentence completion and particularly dialogue completion ~ lend themselves to controlled speaking practice. Students can practise dialogues in pairs or take tin turns to read out complete sentences to eachother, + Student shoul look out fort ff AEM con in each unit When they have completed the written exercises, students cen test themselves on the new vocabulary. The material has been designed so that students can cover the new words beneath a picture (using a book, notebook or piece of paper) while they.

Students can write answers to these, but they make ideal pairwork activites for learners to practise their spoken English while using tye new vocabulary. I you use these as speaking activities. students could then write ‘their answers (or their partners answers) as follow-up. In the Answer Key, possible answers for these activities are provided by both native speakers and proficient non-native speakers from different parts of the world. This may be ‘of particular value toa self study learner, as a way of comparing answers. (BREET How can students use the material on their own? ‘The material has been designed so that it can be used effectively both in the classroom or by learners working alone. IF you want your learners to usethe material for self-study, you can recommend that they use the book alongside the pp, ast gives them a pronuncation model for items of vocabulary, as well as futher practice exercises. For self-study teams in particular. itis also a 300d idea to start with the fist module, which wil help them use the book more effectively, Self-study learners can check their answers to exercises using the Answer Key, and test themselves using the over and check’ procedure explained above. One advantage of self study learning is that students can select the topics that interest them, or the topics where they most need to expand their knowledge. in addition, they have the ‘opportunity with this book to test themselves, as explained above.
