Classroom implementation
Listening focuses on developing the key skills of:
• listening for general understanding, and
• listening for specifi c details
It also aims to widen students’ range of vocabulary and
awareness of clear usage and grammar in line with A2
expectations.
There are twenty units divided across four sections:
1. Who are you? dealing with personal topics and
self-description.
2. Where do you live? about home
and other topics in the
immediate environment.
3. What do you do? dealing with work and study.
4. What do you enjoy? about hobbies and free time.
All the units in Listening have a broadly similar structure and
similar features and below you can fi nd explanations of how
these features can be implemented in the classroom.
