7 Discuss these questions with a partner or with 
your class.
Ask the children to read and discuss the questions in pairs, 
• 
using as much English as possible. In a weaker class, you 
may prefer to discuss them as a class. Ask them to justify 
their answers.
If the children have discussed the questions in pairs, finish 
• 
by reading each of the questions in turn and asking the 
children to answer/comment.
More words (page 54)
Some words are often used together in 
collocations. Check the green collocations in your

In a stronger class, use the 
•

section to extend 
the children’s vocabulary.
Ask the children to turn to page 54, section 7 (

). Read the words in green, and give the children 
some time to look up any words they are not familiar with 
in dictionaries. Model and drill pronunciation.
