class, it is important that listening and speaking activities
be done in class. Students can complete activities from
the grammar, vocabulary, reading, and writing sections of
their Student’s Book at home.
Some pages in the Student’s Book do not have a
corresponding page in the Workbook, so there is a gap. In
the timetable, the homework for these lessons is called
Teacher’s Choice.
For homework on these days, you will
have to plan what the students will do. You can choose
what you think is best for your students. You can use the
Supplementary Materials available with the
Prepare
series.
The last column of the timetable shows which skills are
focused on in the homework. These skills correspond to
the activity headings in the Workbook. However, there is
often more than one activity for each of these skills, so it is
important to plan students’ homework in advance so that
it is manageable for them. On some days, the homework is
Projects, which may involve more than one skill.
SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS

CULTURAL CONSIDERATIONS

was written for an international audience.
Wherever possible, it is important to personalize and
localize the content. This will make the lessons more
interesting and relevant to students. Doing this is more
likely to motivate students, which will help their language
learning.
