About Power Up Power Up
Key features of Power Up
Power Up
Activities are based on real-world skills and situations that learners find engaging and fun. All four skills – reading, writing, listening and speaking – are used to explore interesting topics. The activities scaffold the learning to support both stronger and weaker learners. Grammar and vocabulary are developed through communicative activities which have a clear purpose and encourage learners to use language naturally. All new language is heard, read, written and spoken as learners acquire it and the language is then consolidated throughout, building as the units progress.

What is Power Up? Power Up is an engaging and effective approach to learning which uses: ● Lively activities with clear objectives ● Age-appropriate, engaging topics which support learner progress and collaborative learning ● Real-world contexts and language ● Development of life competencies and test skills ● Scaffolded tasks which support learners of all abilities ● A unifying learner-centred methodology which supports life-long learning. Power Up provides both general English and comprehensive preparation for Cambridge English Qualifications, jointly published with Cambridge Assessment English. Studentcentred learning is a core part of the course, with ongoing unit tasks giving ample opportunity for collaborative learning.

Power Up and the Cambridge Framework for Life Competencies 4 Fun in the jungle In addition to language Power Up develops the life 1 Watchlearning, the video. Ask and answer. What do you like to do outside? competencies of learners. Where’s your favourite natural place?
Power Up is one of the first generation of courses to integrate the Cambridge Framework for Life Competencies. This is an ongoing research initiative into how thinking and learning skills are developed over different life stages. Each unit of Power Up is mapped to a component within the Cambridge Framework for Life Competencies to ensure a wide range of skills are covered. This also provides opportunities for formative assessment and a broad view of each learner’s development.
Missions
Cross-curricular learning The cross-curricular sections also develop life competencies through critical thinking and wider world knowledge. Cross-curricular learning is used in Power Up to refer to any teaching of a non-language subject through the medium of a second or foreign language. It suggests a balance between content and language learning. The non-language content such as natural and social sciences, arts and history is developed through the second language and the second language is developed through the non-language content. Cross-curricular learning can be seen as an educational approach which supports linguistic diversity and is a powerful tool that can have a strong impact on language learning. Why cross-curricular learning is important for language learning

The Life Competencies Framework is a key feature of the unit Missions, where learners are building on social skills by practising collaboration and communication. The enquiryled approach used in the Missions also builds on learners’ thinking and learning skills, through the creativity, critical thinking, problem solving and decision making employed in each stage of the Mission.
Literature The Life Competencies Framework also features in the Literature spread, where learners are building on emotional skills and social responsibilities. Each story holds a message that learners can identify and explore, making it relevant to their own contexts. They learn about emotions, empathy and how to respond to others appropriately through identifying with the characters in the stories.

Plants are living things and grow almost everywhere – from the bottom of the sea to the highest mountain. What plants grow near you?

Each unit is structured around a ‘Mission’ which helps learners to set objectives at the beginning and understand their end goal and learning outcomes. Outcomes are also clearly stated at the beginning of each lesson so that learners can understand and think about them. The teacher’s notes suggest creative ways to share these with the learners. The Missions are based on real-world contexts with a focus on real English. They give learners the opportunity to build up a portfolio of their work as evidence of their learning and help them to reflect and evaluate their own learning even at a young age. As part of this approach, there are frequent opportunities for learners to reflect on what they have learnt and help them plan for the next stage of learning, with practical tips on how teachers can help learners to do this.
Culture
Most plants make food using sunlight. They also need water to survive, just like us! Plants usually have three parts to them: roots, a stem and leaves. The roots take up water from the ground and the leaves take in sunlight and air around them for food. Some plants also have flowers or fruit.

Research on second language acquisition has shown that exposure to naturally occurring language is necessary to achieve a good level of competence in the language. Acquiring a second language is a long and natural process. Learners need to have access to spontaneous speech in an interactive context and the cross-curricular lessons in Power Up provide learners with this access. Learners have to expand their linguistic resources in order to deal with the demands of content learning. Using a second language to grasp non-language content requires a depth of processing which leads to improved language acquisition. Learning is a problem-solving activity and cross-curricular learning requires learners to solve problems through a second language.
vii
The benefits of using cross-curricular learning in the classroom ● Cross-curricular learning relies on intrinsic motivation, that is, the learners are involved in interesting and meaningful activities while using the language. Lessons provide opportunities for incidental language learning. Incidental learning has been shown to be effective and long lasting. ● Through exposure to interesting and authentic content, cross-curricular learning leads to greater involvement and helps increase learner motivation. ● Through the interactive and co-operational nature of the tasks, cross-curricular learning helps boost self-esteem, raise self-confidence, build learner independence and teach learner organisational skills. ● Through the integration of language and content, crosscurricular learning encourages creative thinking. ● Cross-curricular learning fosters learning to learn through the use of learning strategies and study skills. In Primary 3 and 4, learners have developed a linguistic base that allows them to receive input more easily and quickly. At the same time, they are more capable of producing oral output than they could in Primary 1 and 2. Their language production is also more accurate. At this stage the learners have also improved their reading skills and the main objective for reading is now focused on good comprehension. The acquisition of the second language has to develop continuously. At these levels the communicative approach must be kept and the learners need to maintain their reading skills in order to promote accurate writing in the future. The topics covered in the CLIL pages have been chosen to stimulate the learners’ natural curiosity and to encourage them to learn more about the topics.

Power Up contains a motivating ‘test builder’ stage in each unit which develops the skills needed for test success and test strategies for younger learners. It familiarises learners with Cambridge test formats in a positive context which prioritises progress in learning and develops confidence. Learners are fully prepared for A1 Movers and partially prepared for A2 Flyers during level 3 of Power Up. The unique partnership between Cambridge University Press and Cambridge English Assessment means that Power Up has been developed with a new, integrated approach to the Cambridge Exams. Throughout Power Up, learners are given practice in Cambridge exam-style tasks, introduced by the YLE monkey. In level 3 Units 1–4 learners experience test tasks in the style of A1 Movers, and then in Units 5–9 they progress to A2 Flyers. In each unit of level 3, the Pupil’s Book Exam preparation page focuses on one part of the A1 Movers or A2 Flyers test. It breaks down the task and focuses on the skills needed to complete it step-by-step. The lesson trains learners and provides tips and insights into what learners can do to achieve their best. The Activity Book follows on by giving learners an opportunity to practise the task in full, building on what they have learnt in the Pupil’s Book. As a final step, the Power Up Test Generator includes full A1 Movers and A2 Flyers practice tests. This fully-scaffolded approach prepares learners and gives them confidence. It trains them to be adaptable and think actively. It supports teachers with real exam training and it gives you an invaluable measurement of your learners’ progress. This approach also gives Power Up its OFFICIAL badge. A full set of flashcards which can be integrated into lessons for all the new vocabulary items in the 2018 revised tests is available here: worldoffun.cambridge.org

Lesson 1 opens the unit with a colourful illustrated page which sets up the context for the unit and introduces some of the core language that follows. SA Learners are introduced to their first self-assessment in a self-assessment spot. They are invited to think about how much they can do at this stage of learning. This will allow them to see how much progress they have made by the end of the unit. At this stage: – learners have a chance to think about the topic and what they already know about it – they are asked to assess which language they know and what they can’t say yet. ●● Learners then watch a video and answer a couple of questions to encourage them to think about what will follow in the rest of the unit. This task also personalises the learning and makes it relevant to their lives. ●● The unit Mission is then set up. Three stages and a Mission completion activity are clearly outlined. The Activity Book contains a corresponding Mission diary which is revisited as the learners progress through the Mission.
Lesson 2 Vocabulary 1 presentation The first focus on vocabulary is presented and practised in Lesson 2 based on the topic of the unit and with a colourful cartoon illustration to contextualise the language. This shows the Friendly family and their circus friends in typical real-world situations, and contextualises the vocabulary to present meaning. ●● The learners see and hear the new language in a listening activity and are required to answer a question to confirm understanding. ●● The learners are then encouraged to produce the language accurately in an engaging chant. ●● This is followed by a consolidation task, usually requiring learners to respond to questions using the new vocabulary. ●● SA Learners are then asked to self-assess their progress with the new language.
Lesson 3 Story with new language presented in context Lesson 3 provides a song – the Diversicus song – which is repeated in each unit so that learners can join in. The song is followed by a story or ‘sketch’ which practises the new vocabulary and introduces the language point to follow. ●● Learners listen and read the language using the pictures to help them understand. ●● The Teacher’s Book provides comprehension checks for the teacher to use to support and check understanding. ●● At this stage the learners are only exposed to new language. The sketch and pictures help to establish the meaning. x
Lesson 4 Language practice 1 and Mission Stage 1 In Lesson 4, the new language point is practised and Mission Stage 1 is completed. ●● The Grammar spotlight box highlights the target language which learners have heard in the sketch, and gives learners a chance to say and hear the language. It highlights key features of the language form in a simple, age-appropriate way. Pronunciation can also be corrected at this point. ●● This is usually followed by a task requiring the learners to read and write using the new language. ●● Learners then complete Mission Stage 1 using the language they have learnt so far in the unit. The Mission Stage 1 activities usually involve listening and speaking collaboratively to complete a topic-focused task. It requires learners to make decisions and be creative in order to complete the task. ●● SA Once Mission Stage 1 is completed, learners are directed to complete a reflection and self-assessment from the Mission diary section in the Activity Book.
Lesson 5 Vocabulary 2 and song This lesson uses a song to develop the topic and introduce further new vocabulary. ●● Learners listen to the song and complete tasks such as matching. ●● Learners then sing the song to consolidate the language. ●● This is usually followed by two activities or games that provide further practice and develop one or more skills – listening, reading, writing or speaking.
Lesson 6 Language practice 2 and Mission Stage 2 This lesson begins with a listening task requiring learners to answer a question(s) by understanding the new language. ●● There is a second Grammar spotlight box which again highlights the target language and gives learners a chance to hear the language and say it correctly. ●● The task(s) that follows brings all the new language together and allows learners to try the new language in a natural context. ●● In the final part of the lesson, learners use the new language to complete Mission Stage 2. This builds on Mission Stage 1 and again activities usually involve listening and speaking collaboratively to complete a topic-focused task. ●● SA Once Mission Stage 2 is completed, learners are directed to complete a reflection and self-assessment from the Mission statement page in the Activity Book.
Lessons 7 and 8 Cross-curricular and video / Culture and Mission Stage 3 These two lessons introduce a topic which relates to the main focus of the unit, but which is linked to other subjects in the school curriculum. This encourages learners to think about other learning areas using English and develops their vocabulary further. It also develops critical-thinking skills and encourages broader knowledge of the world around them. ●● In the first lesson, learners watch a video which introduces the topic and provides a context to use it. ●● A task is provided to help learners understand the topic. ●● A variety of practice activities follow: these can involve listening, reading, writing and speaking, and a range of different tasks including choosing pictures, matching, ordering or following instructions. These tasks give learners the chance to practise language, develop their skills and improve their critical thinking. ●● The next lesson focuses on a cultural aspect of the crosscurricular topic, usually concentrating on traditions and facts about the country being studied in the unit. ●● Learners now complete Mission Stage 3, which is the final scaffolded stage of the Mission. This builds on the first two stages and again uses the language and skills that have been practised so far. The activity involves further collaboration to complete a task. ●● SA Once Mission Stage 3 is completed, learners are directed to complete a reflection and self-assessment from the Mission diary section in the Activity Book.
Lessons 9 and 10 Literature – story focus / response to story and social and emotional skills In this section learners read and listen to a story and then respond to it. The story uses language from the unit in a context which learners can relate to. The pictures support understanding and help learners follow the story as they listen. ●● Each story generally begins with an introductory speaking task which helps the learners to focus on the topic and encourages them to look at the title and pictures of the story before they read. Learners then listen to the story as they read, which helps bring it to life and aids understanding of the narrative. ●● Teacher’s notes provide tasks to help support comprehension and to check understanding stage by stage as learners listen and read.
●●
In the second lesson learners complete follow-up activities using reading, speaking, writing and listening skills. Tasks include answering questions, talking about personal experience related to the topic, discussing ideas and identifying how characters feel. The activities help develop learners’ emotional competencies and encourage them to develop social and life skills such as kindness, sharing and politeness.
Lesson 11 A1 Movers and A2 Flyers skills builder In Lesson 11 there is a focus on familiarising learners with the Cambridge A1 Movers and A2 Flyers test. Each lesson focuses on a part of the Listening, Speaking or Reading and Writing test. It allows learners to develop test strategies and provides tips. It enables them to become familiar with the test rubrics and task types. It also allows both the learners and teacher to see how well they might perform in the A1 Movers and A2 Flyers. ●● Learners complete tasks typical of A1 Movers and A2 Flyers. These include matching words and pictures, reading and completing texts, and describing picture sequences. ●● Notes in the Teacher’s Book give advice on how to develop learners’ test strategies including confidence-building tips.
Lesson 12 Unit review and Mission in action The final lesson reviews the language covered in the unit through the final Mission stage. This brings together all the previous stages in a collaborative and practical task. As such, it recycles all the language and skills developed in the unit. ●● Learners are encouraged to follow all the stages of the Mission, which has a final outcome. This might be acting out a scenario, doing a presentation or showing a final piece of work. ●● SA Once the Mission in action is completed, learners are directed to complete a final reflection and self-assessment from the Mission statement page in the Activity Book.
Review units A Review unit is included every three units and appears after Units 3, 6 and 9. Each review is two pages and recycles and consolidates the language from the preceding units. The topics are similar to those in the core units but encourage the learners to apply their new language and knowledge to new contexts. ●● Each review begins with an interactive video quiz which learners can do to see how much they can remember. This quiz can be repeated after the review is completed to measure progress.

This is followed by listening tasks, tasks based on pictures to encourage speaking practice, and personalised writing tasks.

The word stack is a personal record for each learner. At the end of each unit ask learners to spend a few minutes looking back at the unit and find a minimum of five new words they have learnt. Fast finishers and stronger learners can choose more. Learners write the new words into their word stack with an example sentence. Extra support – learners can draw pictures of words they have learnt and check back in their text books to copy the words they have chosen.

The unit opener page in each unit of the Activity Book is actually a page for you and your learners to refer to throughout each unit. It has four key parts: My unit goals, a ‘can do’ statement Diversicus game, My mission diary and a page reference for the word stack. The following section provides you with the teaching notes for this page of the Activity Book which you can return to as you progress through each unit.
My unit goals After learners are familiar with the Mission stages and have finished the first part of the unit, e.g. after the unit opener, ask learners to think what they would like to do by the end of the unit. Stronger learners might come up with their own ideas. Extra support – some learners might need to use the Mission stages to think about something they want to learn. Tell them to think about what they need to learn and do in order to achieve this. You can give an example if you like. Check the ideas that learners have and what they think they need to do. Remember to go back to these at the end of each Mission stage during the unit and review them.
Diversicus game At the end of each unit ask learners to look at the Diversicus game and read the ‘can do’ statements, e.g. start with the bottom square. Ask the learners to add a tick if they agree they have achieved the statement. Quickly check what each learner is doing to get a sense of their own assessment.
xii
Learners go through their word stack and write a selection of words onto small cards. They can draw a picture on the other side of the card. Put the learners into pairs. Their partner holds up the card to show the picture and the learner says the word. Pairs then swap roles.
2. Test each other ●● Learners choose a selection of words from their own word stack. ●● Put the learners into pairs. ●● Learners take it in turns to say a word to their partner. Their partner should draw, mime or give an example sentence of all the words they know. If they are asked a word they don’t know their partner should explain or show it to them. 3. K/M/F charts ●● This is a play on the K/W/L chart. Learners go through their word stack and choose five words they feel confident about, three they think they know, and two they can’t remember. ●● They create a poster with the letters K, M, F at the top. K is for words they know; M is for words they might know, and F is for words they have forgotten. They can write the words into the columns or add sticky notes to each column. ●● Learners then work in small groups of three or four and present their K/M/F charts to the rest of the group. Other learners in the group should remind them of the three words in the F list. If no-one can remember the words, they should check in their books.
4. Learner quiz ● Learners work in groups of four or five. They look at their word stacks and create three questions to ask the rest of the class about some of the words. The questions can be based on drawings (What is this? / What are these?) or on an action (What do I feel? – miming angry or happy) or a question (Is Harry big or small?). ● Once the learners have prepared their questions, they sit in their groups. Each group takes it in turns to ask one of their questions to the rest of the class. ● The first group to answer gains one point. If any group can ask a question the other learners don’t know they get a bonus point.

The focus vocabulary used in these activities is drawn from the first vocabulary set of each unit, as well as any relevant revision vocabulary from prior units and levels where appropriate. The activities are designed to practise key sounds or spellings that occur in the words taught in the unit, so that the words and their meanings are already familiar to the learners, thereby making the focus more about sounds and spelling than reading and comprehension.
Power Up and its methodology Power Up features a systematic approach to language learning in which the learner and teacher are in a partnership. It aims to develop the language and skills of the learner, but also helps them achieve better life-long progress in learning. What does it involve? The Power Up methodology helps teachers and learners to plan learning effectively, measure progress and identify areas for improvement in learning. In practice this means that all activity, inside and outside the classroom, can be integrated with assessment. More traditional summative assessment still continues. External ‘tests’ can be used alongside the classroom-focused formative assessment activities. For teachers this should not feel strange: using external assessments to check progress and performance is familiar; monitoring learners’ progress and adapting teaching to support them is also routine. Power Up simply combines these elements in a systematic way. In Power Up you will see that classroom activity is designed to allow the teacher to monitor for evidence to measure progress and also includes tasks that are similar to those in formal summative tests such as Cambridge English A1 Movers and A2 Flyers.

When learning another language, pronunciation and spelling are two of the most challenging aspects. English spelling can seem very complicated, but there are many patterns and rules which will help learners achieve success. There are sounds and spelling practice activities in Lesson two of every unit in the Activity Book. The activities focus on particular sounds that learners often find challenging, or particular spelling patterns that sometimes pose difficulties, such as certain spelling patterns pronounced in different ways, as well as words pronounced the same but spelt differently.

How does it work in the classroom? In Power Up learners are given more independence to understand their own strengths and weaknesses, both immediate (e.g. in a lesson) and longer term (e.g. over a school term). In the classroom this begins with making sure learning objectives are clear to both learner and teacher. In Power Up these are identified by the outcomes at the beginning of each lesson. Once outcomes are established, both the learner and the teacher think about how each activity can support a learning outcome. After the activity is finished they reflect on performance in relation to that outcome and use this evidence to adjust what happens in later lessons – this might be reviewing and practising some language again or moving on more quickly depending on the performance. Normal classroom activities therefore combine learning with assessment to provide meaningful feedback to learners. Being involved in the process helps learners improve outcomes and gain confidence. In addition, if the activities and content are linked to the language and skills of more formal language tests, classroom activities can also be benchmarked against formal tests. No matter how young a learner might be, this process can help learners develop their skills and learn about the world around them. Power Up aims to develop skills such as collaboration and encourages learners to understand their own progress and think about how they can improve. Learners can begin to do this even when they are young. Power Up therefore includes multistage projects which encourage learners to collaborate and work together helping them develop better life skills, and regular selfassessment stages. What kind of activities are used in class? Power Up methodology can be integrated into everyday learning to support progress in different ways and these have been integrated into the course: Power Up prioritises real-life language and activity. It therefore includes learning activities which reflect real-world tasks and offer topics designed to engage the learners. Power Up asks teachers and learners to understand objectives. Expected outcomes for each lesson are shown at the beginning of each lesson in Power Up and Mission statements are also provided in a learner-accessible style; these can be shared in creative ways with the learners. This helps learners understand what they are trying to achieve in each activity they complete.
xiv
Using Power Up, learners begin to reflect on their own performance and measure progress in achieving those outcomes. Learners complete multistage projects in Power Up and consider how well they have done at each stage of the project using suggested self-assessment techniques. This encourages autonomy. Learners are also given opportunities to make choices during their activities and Missions, which encourages self-confidence and independence. Teachers using Power Up can collect information about the learners through their classroom activities, completion of tasks and self-assessment, and this allows both teacher and learners to plan learning more effectively as they work through the material. Links can be made between classroom activities and some of the performance measures of formal tests so that formative and summative assessment is linked together.
Self-assessment guide It is important for learners to understand the purpose of lessons and to think about how well they achieve learning outcomes. They can begin to do this at a young age: their learning in all areas, not just language, will benefit. In this book, each unit of learning therefore includes stages: ●● asking learners to think about what they will learn – making the outcomes for each lesson clear to them ●● helping them to think about their progress – asking them to self-assess through simple activities. When These stages are labelled Self-assessment. You can use any of the techniques explained below at these stages. Choose one of the techniques each time. You can do this at the beginning and end of each lesson and/or at the beginning and end of each unit. When you do this at the beginning of learning, encourage the learners to be honest – the language will be new, so they should recognise this. They need to be reassured that if you can’t do something, knowing this and showing you need more support is a positive way to help yourself. There is an added benefit: when you repeat this assessment at the end of activities, they will be able to recognise what they have learnt. They can also indicate if they are still not confident, which will help you, and them, to see which areas of learning will need more attention.
Techniques for the classroom Tell the class to use their thumbs to demonstrate how they feel about what they are learning. They can use: ●● thumbs up (+ smiling) – ‘I feel very confident’ ●● thumbs mid position (+ neutral face) – ‘I think I know this’ (optional) ●● thumbs down (+ shaking head) – ‘I’m not confident’.
the W column. If learners choose to put the words into the K column, they should explain or give an example using the word. After the lesson or activity sequence, go back to the poster and review the words in the W column. Learners can move them to the L column if they are confident (L is for words they have learnt) or leave them in the W column if not. You can ask them for examples of all the words in the K and L columns. If any words are left in the W column, you may need to teach them again.
2. Red and green cards
Variations:
These cards can be prepared in advance. Although this takes preparation, these can be reused in class for a long time. Use thick green card and red card and cut these into squares approximately 12 cm x 12 cm. You will need one card of each colour per learner. If possible, laminate the cards. Punch a hole in the top left corner and tie together one red and one green card with string or a treasury tag.
Have one large poster and the words on cards. Use sticky tack and select learners to come up and pin them into the columns. ●● Have several large posters. Divide learners into groups – one poster per group. Choose a group leader to stick the words up for the group or, for a more dynamic activity, allow all the learners to stick up some words. Words can be written on cards with sticky tape on the backs or onto sticky notes – ask the learners to copy the new words out themselves. ●● Have several large posters. Divide learners into groups – one poster per group. Give each group a marker pen to write the words into the columns. (They can cross out the words at the end when they change position.)
1. Thumbs up
Tell the class to use their cards to demonstrate how they feel about what they are learning. Hold up: ●● green for ‘confident’ ●● red for ‘not sure’. Learners can also leave these on their desks as they work, leaving red up if they want help from the teacher.
5. Self-assessment cards
Variation: If you don’t have red/green cards ask learners to draw an empty square on a card and put it on their desk at the beginning of the lesson. During the lesson, stop at an appropriate point and ask them to colour in the square: red for ‘I don’t understand’; green for ‘I understand’.
An example (which can be adapted for different tasks and activities) is below:
3. High fives Tell the class to show how they feel about the learning using ‘high fives’ (the learner holding out their hand and slapping hands with another learner or the teacher): ●● high five (holding the hand up high to slap) – ‘I feel very confident’ ●● low five (holding the hand lower near the waist) – ‘I’m not confident’. Even with a big class you can go around quite quickly to ‘high five’ or ‘low five’ each learner. Alternatively you can ask them to go to one side of the room to ‘high five’ and to the other side of the room to ‘low five’ each other, giving you a quick visual of how learners are feeling. 4. K/W/L charts Before beginning work on new language, create a poster with the letters K, W, L at the top. K is for words they know; W is for words they would like to know. Give the learners different words from the activities they are about to do. Ask them which words go into the K column and which go into
Create a simple self-assessment card and make a ‘post box’ by using a cardboard box with a ‘letter box’ cut in the lid. Learners complete their self-assessment and put it into the post box.
Ask learners which outcomes they are trying to achieve and help them complete the sentences, e.g. I understand words about clothes. Then tell them to think about how close they feel to achieving the outcome and to choose a face that shows this. What we are doing.
How I feel
I understand words about
I can say
I know
I don’t know
6. Sticky notes Put a large poster on one side of the room with Hooray! It’s OK. at the top. Put another on the other side with a confused face (scratching its head) saying Let’s try again. Learners write or draw something, e.g. a word or phrase they feel confident about and something they aren’t sure about, on two different sticky notes. They add the first to the Hooray poster and the other to the Let’s try again poster.
xv
If many learners choose the same word to try again, you may need to revisit it with the whole class. You can ask learners to write their names on the sticky notes to help you identify individual learner’s reactions. 7. Mini whiteboards
Variations: ●●
●●
Give each learner a mini whiteboard if you have these. Variation: ●●
You can make them by using laminated card which can be reused a few times.
At appropriate points, stop and ask learners to draw on the card to show how they feel. You can ask them to draw a smiley or frowning face.
●●
●●
If learners have completed a piece of writing or homework task, they can hand this in by placing it into the baskets to show how they feel they have done on that particular task. Just have red and green, without yellow, to keep reflection simple. Paint or colour three paper plates in the three different colours. Have three boxes or baskets, one with a smiley face card on the front, one with a frowning face and one with a neutral face on it. Learners drop their names/work into these.
11. Traffic flags
They can either hold up their mini whiteboard or leave it on the desk as they work so you can see them as you monitor.
Get learners to make flags. Give each learner paper. They cut out three large rectangles or triangles of paper and colour or paint them red, green and yellow. Give each learner three drinking straws and sticky tape. Ask them to stick the rectangles/triangles to the straws to make flags. When you complete an activity, the learners wave a flag according to how they feel.
8. Jump up / Sit down
12. Washing lines
Variation: ●●
Learners write OK / Not OK OR write a word/phrase they are confident about at the top and a word or phrase they don’t fully understand at the bottom.
Call out some of the words or language learners have been learning, and ask learners to jump up if they are confident but sit down if they aren’t sure. You can do this with more than one item. 9. Paper planes When looking at the outcomes of a lesson, ask learners to copy some of them, e.g. words, word categories or phrases, onto a piece of paper. Collect these in. After you have finished the activities, give the papers out again. Ask learners to read the lesson outcomes they have worked on. Then show them how to fold the paper into a paper aeroplane shape. (Simple instructions can be found on the internet.) Put a bin or large box at the front of the class. If they are confident about what they have learnt, they should throw their planes into the box. If they are not confident, they should throw their planes onto your desk. Variations: ●● ●●
Learners screw their papers up into a ball. Use ping pong balls and write on them with indelible marker pens.
10. Baskets Put three plastic baskets or boxes on your desk (a red, a yellow and a green one). Learners write their names onto pieces of paper and drop their name into the basket that shows how they feel: red – not confident, yellow – OK but need more practice, green – very confident.
xvi
Give each child two pegs – preferably one red and one green. Ask them to write their name on both using indelible marker pens. Set up two string lines at the front of the classroom (e.g. across a display board). After an activity, ask the learners to put either their red peg (‘I don’t understand’) or their green peg (‘I understand’) on the line. If you can’t find coloured pegs, use simple wooden ones for learners to write on; have two lines (one with the sign I understand and one with the sign Let’s try again next to them). 13. Balloons Get three balloons: one red, one yellow and one green. If you have a large group, you may need two or three of each colour. After completing an activity, ask learners to write their names using a soft felt tip pen on the balloon that shows how they feel about the activity. Put the balloons to one side. After you have done some follow up, e.g. re-teaching any difficult areas, bring the balloons out again and throw them back and forth asking questions about the words or language covered. At the end the learners can chant We learnt the words! and burst the balloons. Variation: ●●
Have just two balloons, one red and one green, with no yellow.
14. Sticky spots Create a poster divided into three columns. In the column headings, write Hooray, it’s OK / I’m not sure / It’s not OK – let’s try again. At the end of any activity, give learners a sticky dot or sticky label. Ask them to write their name on it. As they leave the class, they stick their name into one of the columns.
15. Scales Create a long arrow from cardboard and stick it on the side of the board or on the wall. Inside the very top, draw a smiley face and write 100%. At the bottom draw a frowning face and write 0%. (This is re-usable so you only need to prepare it once.) Give out slips of paper and paper clips to the learners. They write their name on the paper. At the end of an activity, ask them to bring up their name and to paper clip it to the edge of the arrow showing where they think they are on the scale.
Teachers’ classroom assessment: As we have seen, Power Up involves assessing learners during everyday activities along with more traditional types of assessment or test-type activities. This information will help the teacher adjust learning aims and lesson plans so that areas of difficulty can be reviewed and areas that are easy can be dealt with quickly. This responsive style of teaching allows better progress. The teacher will also take into account how the learners are feeling: even if a learner answers questions correctly, if they don’t feel confident about a particular area they may still need some extra practice.
The teacher’s role To use this approach successfully, during teaching you need to: a. identify language outcomes clearly at the start of lessons/tasks b. use ‘closing language’ regularly to highlight the achievements made c. monitor effectively during specific activities d. keep formative assessment notes on the group and individual learners e. alternatively use checklists to record assessment of skills and life skills (e.g. planning / collaborating / working autonomously / sharing.) f. encourage learners to engage in self-assessment. After teaching you need to: a. keep or update anecdotal records b. use scoring rubrics to measure achievement against external scales c. use ‘portfolio’ building / record keeping for individual learners. This will give you a full record of assessment for each learner alongside any results from tests. This can help you when writing reports for learners, making them evidence–based and more detailed. It will give you an idea of how well learners are doing against external measures.
Practical techniques for the teacher’s role: in class a) Identifying outcomes Each unit contains an opening stage which shows you how to set up the Mission clearly for learners. There is a Mission poster to help you track progress in the Activity Book. In this way setting outcomes and reviewing them are built into the materials. You can: tell learners what you will do at the beginning of the lesson ●● write the outcomes on the board ●● write the outcomes on a poster and stick it on the wall; at the end of the teaching cycle you can then return to this and tick the items, or encourage a learner to come up and tick them ●● put two posters on the wall: ‘What we are learning’, ‘What we learnt’: write each outcome for your lesson on a large card and stick it under the ‘What we are learning’ poster; at the end of the teaching cycle move the card or encourage a learner to move it to under the ‘What we learnt’ poster. All the outcomes from the term can gradually be added here giving a visual record for learners of what they have achieved. ●●
b) Use ‘closing language’ regularly to highlight the achievement ●● After the activity go back to the outcomes and use this to ‘close’ the task, e.g. Well done. You have talked about school. You have listened and answered. ●● You can use the language from the outcomes to help close the task. ●● If the learners have found something difficult make sure you praise their work even if you need to do more on this area, e.g. Well done – you have worked hard. You talked about school. Let’s try again later and do even better. c) Monitor effectively during specific activities ●● Once you have set up an activity do a quick check around the room to make sure the learners are ‘on task’ and provide more guidance if any have not understood what to do. To keep the activity moving it might be necessary to use a little L1 to help them. Try to avoid doing this too much or you will find learners ‘switch off’ during English instructions as they know you will repeat in L1. ●● Once all the learners are on task monitor the group, listening carefully to what they say and looking at their work especially if they are writing words. You may need to feed in words in English or answer questions if they ask you for help.
xvii
●●
●●
If everything is going well you might want to praise their progress briefly in English but don’t step in too much. If you always step in, learners will stop doing tasks and expect you to be involved. This is fine sometimes but you want to see how they work and collaborate together and if you are involved all the time you can’t do this. Learners will soon get used to you monitoring without intervening. Use this time to note how they are doing. If you have a large group make a list of all the learners and plan to monitor different members of the group closely during each activity, e.g. monitor learners 1–5 closely in Activity 1, monitor learners 6–10 closely in Activity 2 and so on. In this way over a few lessons you will have monitored each individual closely.
d) Keep formative assessment notes on the group and individual learners ●● You can use monitoring, the activities learners complete and any classroom-based tasks and homework to gather evidence about learner progress. ●● Keep a notebook and pen with you during lessons to make notes; alternatively use a mobile device, e.g. tablet. ●● You can prepare your notebook in advance with a page or half page for each learner. This can be updated during and after activities. See below for examples of notes on language and the skills of speaking and writing (you could include listening and reading).

f) Encourage students to engage in self-assessment
b) Use scoring rubrics
See notes on self-assessment.
You can combine in-class assessments with results of class tests, e.g. percentage scores, and all this information can be matched against external standards to give you an idea of how well learners are doing overall. For example, you can look at the ‘can do’ statements for each skill in CEFR scales.
Practical techniques for the teacher’s role: after class After teaching you can use the information and evidence you have collected to ensure you have full records for learners. This information can be reviewed, along with the learners’ self-assessment, to decide on what kind of teaching and learning will follow as well as to produce reports.
We really hope you enjoy teaching with Power Up and look forward to supporting you throughout this journey with your learners.
a) Keep or update anecdotal records You can use your notes to add to any records you keep for learners. If you used a digital device you can cut and paste the notes you made. Along with formal test results, this will give you evidence and detailed information if you need to write reports for your learners.

Can you ride a bike? Do you like ice skating or doing gymnastics? When you do these activities what helps you not to fall all the time? It’s your sense of balance. Your brain controls your sense of balance. The brain is a very complicated organ. Different parts control different cerebellum things. The cerebellum is the part of the brain that controls balance. Without this, it would be diff icult to walk or even stand up. Which other activities need a sense of balance?

Listen and read the text about a Russian athlete. Answer the question. What new move did Olga Korbut perform in 1972?
Olga Korbut One sport that needs a really good sense of balance is gymnastics. And who is the queen of balance? Russian
Olympic gymnast, Olga Korbut! Olga Korbut was born in 1955 in Grodno. At the time Grodno was part of the USSR (the Soviet Union). She studied in a school that had a special programme for sports people. She began to train for the Olympic team. At the Olympic Games in 1972, Olga was 17 years old and the youngest member of the team. She was also very small, only 1.5 metres tall, but she was very strong. Her routines were fast and exciting and she was everyone’s
favourite gymnast. Olga Korbut won four gold medals and two silver medals for the USSR in the 1972 and 1976 Olympics. In 1972, she performed new moves including the Korbut Flip. They don’t do this move in competitions now because people think it is too dangerous! It is still exciting to watch Olga Korbut’s routines, but don’t forget that she had to train for many hours every day to become a top gymnast. Would you like to be a gymnast?

THE CIRCUS CHILD
Can you imagine being in a circus? Travelling all over the world, playing with clowns, flying through the air on a trapeze, or jumping on trampolines all day? No? Well, let me tell you about it. My name is Anastasia. I was born in the circus. My parents are Russian acrobats with Captain Adventure’s Travelling Circus and my dream was always to be just like them and perform on stage.
Every day I wanted to ask Dad when I could go on stage with him. But I was afraid to. I didn’t know if I was ready. In the mornings I had classes with a teacher online. They started at nine o’clock. My parents said I had to do well at school. In the afternoons I practised acrobatics with my dad for hours. We practised until dinner at half past seven.

After training, my friend Yuri usually came over to give me support. ‘Soon,’ he always said, and hugged me. I practised really hard every day for years, then last month it finally happened. Dad said, ‘I think you are ready to go on stage now. How about Saturday?’ ‘Really?’ I shouted and jumped up and down. Immediately, I ran to tell Yuri the good news. ‘I told you!’ he laughed. ‘You practised a lot, and practice makes perfect.’ And that was how my dream came true.

The old man and the small fish
My name is Ching-Yun. I am an old man. I live in a village near the Huangshan Mountain. My granddaughter calls me ‘The Happiest Man in China’.
Every day my granddaughter comes to visit me before she goes to school. Her name is Wen. She is eight years old. Wen makes breakfast for me. I have the same thing every morning – noodles and a cup of green tea. After breakfast, I tell Wen the old stories my grandpa told me when I was a boy. It was cold that morning. Wen arrived early. ‘Yéye,’ she said, ‘do you want something different for breakfast today – perhaps some rice or some bread?’ I said, ‘No, thank you, Wen. I’m very happy with my noodles and my tea.’ ‘Why do you have the same thing for breakfast every day, Yéye?’ Wen asked me. I finished my breakfast and then I told Wen the story of ‘The small fish which swam in the same part of the lake’. 26

Literature
Learning outcomes By the end of the lesson, learners will have talked about the meaning of a story and learnt about constancy and contentment. Recycled language language from the story, questions and short answers Materials coloured pens or pencils (optional), audio Social and Emotional Skill: show respect for the decisions of others ● After reading the story, ask learners questions: What does Wen call her grandfather? (The happiest man in China) Why is he happy? (Because he likes what he does every day) Does he want to do new things? (No) How do we know? (Because he doesn’t want to change his breakfast – he’s happy with his noodles and tea.) Does Wen respect her grandfather’s decision? (Yes) ● Say Yes, she does. Explain that it is important to respect other people’s decisions and not try to make them do what we want. For example, when learners are all playing a game and one of their friends prefers to read a book, do they make the friend join in, or do they respect their decision and let their friend read? Explain that it’s good to understand other people’s decisions. Wen respects her grandfather’s decision, but she wants to know why. Her grandfather tells her a story to show why he is happy with his routine. ● Point out that her grandfather has tried lots of things in his life and he has learnt what he likes. ● Divide the class into two teams. One team thinks of why it’s good to do new things. The other team thinks of why it’s OK not to do new things. The teams take turns to give a reason. ● Say to the class Hands up the people who think it’s good to do new things. Explain that when you are young, it’s important to try new things because that way you find out what you like. ● Also remind the class of the importance of sticking to things. For example, if you play the guitar, don’t give it up to play the piano. Continue with the guitar and try playing the piano too. ● Hand out paper. Learners think of and write one thing they like from their routine that makes them happy and one thing new they would like to try. They share their ideas with the class.

2 Read and discuss with a partner. Are your answers the same or different? ●

Read the first question. In pairs, learners discuss their ideas. Talk about what type of person Ching-Yun is and ask What does Wen call him at the start of the story? (The happiest man in China) Why is he happy? (Because he likes his life, he enjoys his daily routine) Explain that he might be happy because he doesn’t feel frustrated that there is nothing new in his life. He isn’t bored because he doesn’t want to be excited by changes. Read the second question. Learners discuss their ideas in pairs and then feed back again. Ask learners for examples of things they do or eat every day which they don’t want to change – things which make them happy. Ask for examples of new things they want to do or try. Have they ever got a new thing and then found out that it wasn’t as good as they expected? Talk about the way modern life encourages us to always want new, different and ‘better’ things – the latest toy, craze or phone. Point out that things do not have to be new to be exciting, and if you are always looking for something new, you don’t enjoy your life today. Ask Why does Ching-Yun tell Wen the story of the small fish? (Because he wants her to see that enjoying ordinary, everyday things can make you happy.)
Activity Book, page 27 See pages TB128–140
Ending the lesson ●
Say sentences about the story, each with a mistake. Choose learners to correct the sentences, e.g. Ching-Yun is a young man. (He’s an old man.) He lives near the sea. (He lives near the mountains.) His grandson’s name is Wen. (His granddaughter’s name is Wen.) She calls him ‘the saddest man in China’. (She calls him ‘the happiest man in China’.) She visits him every day after school. (She visits him every day before school.)
There was once a small fish, and every day the small fish swam in the same part of the lake. Its friends didn’t understand. They said, ‘Come with us to a new part of the lake, small fish.’ But the small fish said, ‘No, thank you. I’m happy here.’
2
One morning, the friends of the small fish didn’t go to a new part of the lake. ‘Why didn’t you swim to a new part of the lake today?’ said the small fish. ‘We know every part of the lake now,’ the friends of the small fish said, happily. ‘But this part is still the best, so we’re staying here with you.’
The next morning, Wen made me noodles and green tea. This time, she didn’t ask me if I wanted something different for my breakfast.

Literature
Learning outcomes By the end of the lesson, learners will have summarised and acted out a play and learnt about showing empathy with others and respecting wild animals. New language summary Recycled language language from the story Materials audio, a bowl, a packet of rice and a packet of porridge for each group of four learners (optional) Social and Emotional Skill: show empathy for others After reading the story, ask some simple questions: Why does Too-too-moo share food with the dragon? (Because he’s hungry) Does the mother like the dragon? (No) Why do you think that is? (They haven’t got much food and the mother thinks the dragon is greedy.) ● Point out that Too-too-moo defends the dragon to her mother when she calls it greedy. Too-too-moo is a kind person because she shares food with the dragon. She thinks about what the dragon needs and feels empathy for him. She understands he is hungry. Empathy is when you understand how someone else is feeling. ● Write the following situations on the board: You are running in a race. You are running faster than the other runners. You are going to win. Then the person just behind you falls over and hurts himself/herself. Do you stop and go to help the person who has fallen over and someone else wins the race? Or do you carry on to win and not think about the person who has fallen over? There’s a new boy at school. He doesn’t speak your language very well. There are some children who are laughing at the way he speaks. ● Ask learners how they think the people in the situations feel. Ask Who do you feel empathy for? What would you do? Would you help the new boy? ● Learners work in pairs. They ask each other what makes them happy/sad/worried/nervous. They write down the answers. Encourage learners to identify similarities in their feelings with their partner.

Remember and write.
Read the instructions. Teach summary and explain that a summary gives just the most important information about a story (the main events). Write a model sentence on the board to start the summary, e.g. Too-too-moo and her mother gave breakfast to a dragon every day. Put the class into groups of three or four. Learners work together with books closed to write seven sentences in their notebooks. The class share their sentences. Invite a learner from each group to write a sentence on the board. Extra support Write words from the story on the board for learners to use in each sentence: 1 Too-too-moo, mother, dragon, breakfast, every day; 2 market, sell, firewood; 3 weather, hot, get poorer; 4 no food, dragon, angry; 5 weather, cold, people bought firewood; 6 food again, dragon didn’t come; 7 Too-too-moo, left porridge, forest. Key (suggested summary): Too-too-moo and her mother gave breakfast to a dragon every day. Too-too-moo’s mother went to market to sell firewood. The weather was hot so people didn’t buy wood and they got poorer. There was no food for the dragon and it was angry. The weather got colder and people bought more firewood. Too-too-moo and her mother had food again, but the dragon didn’t come. Too-too-moo often left porridge in the forest for the dragon.

SCENE THREE Narrator: The weather was hot. Nobody wanted firewood so Too-too-moo and her mother couldn’t make any money. They got poorer and poorer. Soon there was no food in the little house. But still the Komodo dragon came for his porridge. Dragon: Too-too-moo! Where are you? I’m hungry, and I need my breakfast. Open the door! I’ve got a stomach-ache. I can’t wait any more! Narrator: Too-too-moo opened the door. Too-too-moo: There isn’t any porridge. Narrator: The dragon was angry. He pushed Too-too-moo. He showed his terrible teeth, and he gave a terrible roar. Dragon: Too-too-moo, you aren’t my friend any more!

SCENE FOUR Narrator: At last the weather got colder. People bought firewood again. Too-too-moo’s mother came home with rice and porridge. Mother: I’m happy that greedy dragon doesn’t come here now. There is more food for us! Too-too-moo: He wasn’t greedy, Mother. He was hungry. Mother: He’s dangerous! He needs to stay in the forest where he belongs. Narrator: The dragon never came to the little house again. But Too-too-moo often left a bowl of porridge in the forest for his breakfast.

Legs can help us to jump or , for example, when we need to catch a bus. When you play a sport like football or tennis, you sometimes hurt your knee or a foot. If it’s very sore, don’t worry doctor in a hospital can make you better. Most people have two legs, two knees, two feet and ten toes. Did you know that there are 52 bones in our feet? Are you surprised? 40

A1 Movers Learning outcomes By the end of the lesson, learners will have practised identifying word classes and completing cloze texts (A1 Movers Reading and Writing Part 4). Test skills Reading for specific information and gist Recycled language parts of the body, health problems, action verbs, animals, comparatives and superlatives, have got Materials Parts of the body flashcards, word cards (optional)
●

Put up the Parts of the body flashcards on the board. Call a learner to the front. Ask Which part of the body is this? Point to the flashcards on the board. Spell out one of the words by drawing letters on the learner’s back (e.g. s-h-o-u-l-d-e-r). The learner guesses the word. Now put learners into pairs. One learner draws a word on the back of the other, who guesses. Then they swap roles. SA Use self-assessment techniques to check how well learners think they understand the vocabulary. See Introduction. Say Let’s practise for a Reading and Writing exam. Say In Part 4 of the exam you need to complete texts by choosing a word from different options. You need to look at the options carefully and at the words around the spaces.

Read and put the words in the table.
Write the following words on the board: foot, feet, angry, fall. Ask Which word is an adjective? (Angry) Repeat for the other words and teach the word classes: noun – singular and plural, verb. Ask learners to give you more examples of each category (more nouns in singular and plural, more adjectives and more verbs). Say Open your Pupil’s Books at page 40. Read the instructions and the headings of the table. Ask what the abbreviations s and pl mean (singular and plural). Learners work individually to categorise the words in the box, writing in their notebooks. Encourage learners to look at clues like articles and comparative forms. Copy the table on the board and check answers. Key: Noun (s.) a bus a horse a sport
Adjective better older long
Verb jump hurt needs know
Focus on the spaces in the text. For each space ask What type of word is missing? Is it a noun, an adjective, a verb, a conjunction? Learners discuss in pairs. Remind them that they don’t need to think of the exact missing word, as in the exam they are given three choices for each space. Point to the list of options on the right. Learners choose the words. Check answers. Remind learners that in the exam the missing words can also be comparatives, superlatives and singular/plural nouns. Key: 1 haven’t 2 run

Show the Health flashcards. For each one, ask What’s the matter? I’ve got (a) ... Learners say the word. Mime a health problem from the flashcards or a problem with a part of the body in the unit (e.g. a sore knee). Learners guess, e.g. You’ve got a sore knee. Put pieces of paper with health problems written on them in a box or bag. Call a learner to the front. Let him/her choose a piece of paper. He/She keeps the piece of paper, looks at it and then mimes having that problem. The rest of the class guess, e.g. You’ve got a headache. If you don’t have pieces of paper, whisper the health problem to the learner instead. You can make this a competitive team game. Put the class into two teams. Two learners come to the front and each chooses a piece of paper. They both mime at the same time and only members of their team can guess what the health problem is. The team who guess first get a point. Repeat with two different learners at the front.

SA Ask Was it easy being a health expert? Which part of the Mission did you like best? Learners look back through the unit and their notebooks/worksheets and choose 1, 2, 3 or 4. Encourage them to give reasons for their answer (e.g. Stage 2 because I liked visiting the doctor). Say Our next Mission is ‘Create a jungle adventure park.’ Ask Have you ever been to an adventure park?
Key: 1 He dropped a weight on it. 2 It’s the highest mountain in Indonesia. 3 The dad has backache. 4 She wants to go to a party. She can’t because she has a temperature. 5 You need to wear a helmet. 6 Because she didn’t give him breakfast any more.
Pupil’s Book, page 41 in action!
Read the instructions and the speech bubbles. Check comprehension of Do you agree? Put learners into groups of three or four and hand out the Mission worksheets or refer learners to the work they have done for the Mission in their notebooks. In their groups, learners ask each other questions about their health plan. Each group chooses one piece of advice or health tip to make into a poster. Monitor and help. Learners work together to think about the design of their poster and the text. Tell each group to write a rough version of their text first, before they transfer it to a poster. Hand out large pieces of paper to the groups. Make sure everyone in the group has a role (e.g. making the heading, copying out the text or drawing pictures with labels). Groups present their poster to the class and explain why they chose the pictures / what the text is about. Display the finished posters around the classroom.
Go back to the completion stage on the digital Mission poster. Add a tick or invite a learner to do it. Use selfassessment (see Introduction). Tell the learners You have finished your Mission! Well done!

Plants are living things and grow almost everywhere – from the bottom of the sea to the highest mountain. What plants grow near you? Most plants make food using sunlight. They also need water to survive, just like us! Plants usually have three parts to them: roots, a stem and leaves. The roots take up water from the ground and the leaves take in sunlight and air around them for food. Some plants also have flowers or fruit.

Carnivorous plants
Like most other plants, carnivorous plants need sun, air and water to make their own food. But they also get extra nutrients by eating small animals! Here are two examples:
The Venus flytrap
The Sundew plant
Venus flytraps grow naturally in the USA but are used as house plants all over the world. They use their leaves to catch insects, like flies. The leaves close when an insect touches the tiny hairs that grow on them. The plant can then slowly eat the insect.
Sundew plants are found in the Indian rainforests. They can grow in soil that is underwater. Their leaves have sticky hairs and when an insect lands on the leaves, the sticky hairs trap them. Large sundew plants can trap and eat spiders.
Which plant … 1 is from India? 2 is from the USA? 3 eats flies?

sometimes eats spiders? has got sticky hairs?
6
has got tiny hairs?
6 Create your own carnivorous plant.
Draw and colour a carnivorous plant on a sheet of paper. Make notes about where it grows, how it catches its food and what it needs to survive. Think of a name for your plant. Then present your plant to the class.
STAGE 3 Add a nature area to your park. In your groups, discuss what plants and animals you can see in your park. Let’s have some OK, then we need some trees tigers and bears. with fruit for the bears to eat. Add this information to your brochure.

THE STORY OF RAMA AND SITA
Long ago a king lived in the town of Ayodhya. He had four sons. One day he said, ‘I am getting very old now and I want my oldest son Rama to be king.’ ‘No!’ Rama’s stepmother cried. ‘My son must be king!’ The King listened to his wife, and he sadly told his oldest son to leave. Rama couldn’t return to Ayodhya for 14 years.
Rama and his wife, Sita, left Ayodhya. They travelled for many days until they came to a forest. ‘This looks like the perfect place to live,’ said Rama. For many years, they lived happily in the forest. But there was a terrible man called Ravana in the forest. He saw Sita one day and he wanted to take her. He had a plan. One day, Sita saw a beautiful golden deer. ‘Rama, catch it for me,’ she said. When Rama left to catch the deer, Ravana came to the house dressed in a costume. He caught Sita and took her back to his palace. When Rama returned and saw that Sita wasn’t there, he searched but he couldn’t find her. He decided to ask Hanuman for help. Hanuman was the great leader of the monkeys. He could fly over mountains, change size and he was very strong. ‘Don’t worry. I can find her quickly,’ he said to Rama. 52

Learning outcomes By the end of the lesson, learners will have talked about the feelings of characters in a story and learnt about being resourceful and helping others. New language brave, characters, clever, unkind, How do(es) … feel? He/She feels … They feel … Recycled language language from the story, adjectives to describe feelings: afraid, angry, frightened, happy, sad, surprised, tired Materials audio Social and Emotional Skill: helping others ● After reading the story, ask the learners some simple questions: The characters in the story all feel different emotions. The king feels sad. The queen feels angry. Rama and Sita feel sad and angry but happy when they return to Ayodhya. Rama feels sad when Ravana takes Sita. Rama asks for help. Ask Who does he ask? (Hanuman) Does he help Rama? (Yes) Who does Rama help? (Sita) ● Point out that it is good to help people and that helping people makes you and the person you help feel good. Tell learners to think about what they do to help. Ask Do you help at home? At school? Your friends? How do you help? ● Give the learners different situations and ask for their opinions. They answer Yes or No and say why. Imagine you are in a race and someone falls over. Do you stop to help and perhaps lose the race? Imagine you see an old man or woman carrying heavy bags. Do you help them? Imagine your little brother or sister loses their favourite toy. Do you help them find it? Imagine your mother is doing the shopping. Do you go with her to help? ● Encourage learners to think about how the people would feel if they were helped and if they weren’t helped. ● Learners work in pairs. They think of situations where they can help people. Then they act out situations for the rest of the class. Learners can invent a situation or act out one that really happened. ● Alternatively, set a class challenge. Assign each learner with a classmate they have to help once a day for one week. At the end of each day, have a class discussion of how the learners have helped each other.

Warm-up ●
Tell learners that the story of Rama and Sita comes from a very old Indian poem called Ramayana. The original poem is written in Sanskrit. Ask How long do you think the poem is? How many chapters does it have? Explain that the Ramayana has 500 chapters and fills seven books. SA Use self-assessment techniques to check how well learners think they understand the vocabulary. See Introduction.
●
Review adjectives to describe feelings. Mime feeling sad and say I feel sad. Be sad. Learners mime. Write sad on the board. Repeat for happy, angry, frightened/afraid and surprised. Check comprehension of feel. Read the first question: How do you think the characters feel when the king tells Rama and Sita to leave Ayodhya? Learners can look at picture 1 to help. Encourage them to talk about all the different characters and to use feels, e.g. The king feels sad. The queen feels happy. Rama and Sita feel sad, angry and surprised. Rama’s brothers feel surprised and maybe angry too. Rama’s stepbrother feels happy. Read the rest of the questions and encourage complete sentences as answers in the same way.

On her way to Ravana’s palace, Sita carefully dropped her jewellery. As Hanuman flew in the sky, the pieces of jewellery were like little lights showing him the way. Soon he found Sita. She was in the garden of Ravana’s palace. Hanuman quickly told Rama where Sita was. He organised a great army of monkeys and bears. Together, they rescued her from Ravana. Rama and Sita were happy again, and finally, after 14 years, they went back to Ayodhya. There were flowers and lanterns in the streets. The people cheered loudly and were very happy to see their real king. In some parts of the world today, people still celebrate Rama going home.

Introduce the new materials and items using real objects and/or Materials flashcards. Put objects made of different materials on a tray, e.g. a mask or crown made of card, a glass bottle, a plastic ruler, a wooden box, a wool scarf, some metal scissors. Show each item in turn and ask What’s it made of? Learners help you to make two sentences for each item, e.g. It’s a mask. It’s made of card. The class repeat the sentences for each item until they are confident. Say Look and remember. Give learners a minute to look at the items on the tray, and then cover it with a cloth. Ask What is there on my tray? Learners put up their hands and make two sentences about an item they can remember (e.g. They’re scissors. They’re made of metal.) Repeat until the class has remembered all the items. You could make this competitive: the class get a point for each correct sentence; you get a point if they make a mistake.

A theatre workshop In our theatre group, we use different materials to make our costumes, props and sets. We use materials with different properties. Some materials are flexible and light. Some materials are rigid and strong. It’s important to use materials that are safe. We make masks with papier-mâché. It’s flexible and light because it is made of paper, glue and water. You can paint the masks and decorate them with lots of different things. Today we’re making Greek masks. Theatre was very important in Ancient Greece. Most cities had a theatre and people went there to watch comedies (funny shows) or tragedies (sad or serious shows). The actors used masks to show different emotions more clearly. Some masks were double-sided, which means they could have one face on one side and a different one on the other side. Let’s make happy and sad double-sided masks!

One morning on the island of Crete, Icarus and his father Daedalus were in their workshop. Daedalus uss was an inventor. Suddenly, King Minos arrived and he spoke to Daedalus. ‘I’d like you to build me a labyrinth,’ he said. ‘I want to put that Minotaur inside it.’ The Minotaur was a terrible monster. He had the head of a bull and the body of a man. King Minos was pleased when he saw Daedalus’s us’s work. He put the Minotaur inside the labyrinth. h. Then he locked Daedalus and Icarus inside a tower. ‘What are you doing?’ said Daedalus.. ‘Well,’ said the King, ‘you know the secret of how to get out of the labyrinth. And I don’t want anyone else to know it.’

Daedalus told Icarus what to do. ‘Follow me. Don’t go too high because the sun will melt the wax in your wings. Don’t go too low because the sea will make the feathers in your wings wet. Are you ready? Go!’ Daedalus and Icarus jumped out of the window. They flew away from the island, and away from King Minos. Daedalus flew in front, Icarus followed behind. Icarus loved flying. He was just like a bird! He forgot his father’s words and he flew higher and higher. But as he got nearer to the sun, the wax between the feathers began to melt.
4 When Daedalus looked behind him, he couldn’t see his son. ‘Icarus!’ he shouted. ‘Icarus! Where are you?’ Daedalus looked down. There were feathers in the sea. Daedalus went to the nearest island. He sat and looked at the sea for a long time, and he felt sad for his son. That island is now called Icaria, and the sea around it is called the Icarian Sea.

Listen and read. Then look at the maps and match.
In geography, we learn about maps. We need maps to find places and show distances between places.
2
There are different types of maps, including: a political maps, which show borders between countries or between areas inside a country; b street maps, which show the different roads in an area;
3
c physical maps, which show natural features in an area, like rivers, mountains and lakes.
3
2.41
Listen and read the information about maps. Answer the questions.
Maps All maps have a title which tells us the name of the place on the map. The scale shows the real distance between two places. The pictures on a map are called symbols. They represent real things, like mountains or buildings. The key explains what each symbol or colour means. 1 Find these things on the map: a river, a mountain, a lake and a forest. 2 What is the scale of the map? 3 How far is it from the forest to the lake? Use a ruler to find out. 74

Call a learner to the front and ask Where’s the (waterfall)? The learner points. Say We’ve got a map of the island now. I used symbols to show places on the map. Teach symbol. Call a learner to the front and whisper a feature for him/her to add to the map. The learner draws a symbol wherever he/she wants. The class say what it shows. Add jungle, mountain, field, city and lake to the map in this way. Learners can suggest other natural features (e.g. volcano, beach). Show some real maps, if possible (e.g. a political map of a country or continent, a physical map of a region or country, and a street map of a city). Alternatively, draw different simple maps on the board (one showing borders between countries or regions, one showing streets in a city, one showing mountains, rivers, etc.) For each map, ask What does this map show? What can you see? When do we use it?

Listen and read the information about maps. Answer the questions.
Read the instructions and the questions. Teach mountain range, peak, scale and How far is it from … to … ? Play the audio for learners to listen and read. They answer the questions individually or in pairs. Monitor and help (make sure learners know how to translate the measurements from the ruler into real distances, using the scale).
Check answers. Key: 1 Learners find the features and label them. 2 1cm = 2 miles 3 1cm = 2 miles Extension Hand out paper with a large 6 x 6 grid drawn on it, with letters A to F on the horizontal axis, and with numbers 1 to 6 on the vertical axis. Learners draw the outline of an island within the grid, and then add features wherever they want. Write a list on the board for them to choose from (e.g. forest, waterfall, city, lake, mountains, national park). Tell learners that each feature needs to be in a different square of the grid. Learners then play ‘Battleships’. Put the class into pairs. They sit back to back or stand a book between them so they can’t see each other’s maps. Learners take turns to try and guess where the features are on their partner’s map by saying a grid reference, e.g. C5! Their partner looks at his/her map and says Yes. There is a (river) in C5 or No, there’s nothing in C5. The winner is the first learner to find all six features on their partner’s map.
Watch the video.
Say Let’s watch the video. Learners watch the video about maps. Pause the video to check comprehension and learners answer the questions at the end. Watch the video again, this time without pausing.

Listen and read. Where is Cappadocia?
Cappadocia, Turkey, is different from any other place on Earth. It is a very high area: over 1,000 metres above the sea. There are many mountains across this area which are thousands of years old and made from volcanic rock. Some of these mountains are really high, like Kayseri, which is the highest at 3,916 metres!
Because Cappadocia is so high, the weather can change a lot. It can be very hot some days and very cold other days. The people who lived in Cappadocia many years ago made small houses inside the mountains and rocks. You should visit it because you can explore inside the exciting houses and see how the people lived!

THE PROJECT
Katy, Mike and Harold were in the library talking about a project about Turkey. Mr Carlton, their teacher, said they could choose any topic for their project, but it should be about Turkey. ‘Betty’s group is doing their project about the geography of Turkey,’ said Katy. Harold was reading about Turkey on a website. ‘The history of Turkey is very interesting. It was part of the Ottoman Empire!’ ‘Freddy’s group’s doing their project about that,’ said Katy. ‘What about science?’ ‘No,’ said Harold. He didn’t like science. Katy looked at her timetable. ‘The project’s for Friday,’ she said. ‘Let’s hurry up!’ Katy had an idea. ‘Our project can be about Turkish literature. I’m sure that Turkey has lots of stories and myths. These can teach us a lot about a place.’ ‘Great idea! We should find one on the Internet. Mr Carlton likes us to use IT,’ said Mike. ‘Why don’t we do something original, like re-write the story as a poem? I’m good at writing poems,’ said Katy. ‘Mike’s good at art. He can draw the pictures. And you’re good at acting, Harold. You can read it to the class!’ ‘Perfect,’ said Mike. So that’s what they did! 76

Set up groups of three learners. Put several different coins in a bag. Each learner takes one. In their groups of three, they use the three coin designs to come up with a new coin design of their own. They do an illustration of their design. Then, in their groups, they explain to the rest of the class the meaning of their coin logo. Encourage learners to use expressions like What about … ? Great idea! Why don’t we … ?
With books closed, ask Which animals were in the story we read? (A camel and a mouse) Let’s see what you remember about the story. Make sentences about the story which are all wrong. Learners correct you. Example sentences (corrections in brackets): The children need to do a project about Britain. (Not about Britain, about Turkey) Harold read about Turkey in a dictionary. (Not in a dictionary, on a website) Harold loved science. (Harold didn’t like science.) Katy hasn’t got any ideas. (She’s got good ideas.) Mike is good at acting. (Mike is good at art.) The camel is running. (Not running, walking) The mouse pushes the camel. (It pulls the camel.) The mouse is good at swimming. (The mouse can’t swim. / It’s scared of water.)

A mouse came out of his hole in the ground, Into the sunlight, and looked around. He saw that a camel was walking by, With rope around it. The mouse didn’t know why. So he took the rope, and feeling happy, He pulled the camel along, singing loudly!
But soon they came to a river wide, And the mouse felt sick and strange inside. ‘Oh please, Mr Camel, please help me, I don’t like water, as you can see!’ So the camel told the mouse to jump Onto his back, and sit on his hump.
But when they got to the other side, He said ‘Get off! That’s the end of your ride! And understand, you silly little thing, That in the deser t the camel is king!’
Their project was a great success. Everyone loved it!

Beautiful paintings My dad is an archaeologist. Last year, he visited Spain. There is lots of work for an archaeologist in Spain because it’s got many examples of how people lived in the past. Its history is very old! My dad went to the Altamira Caves. The caves are famous because archaeologists discovered the first cave paintings there in 1895. My dad says that in the past, people told stories using art. They didn’t write like we Bison, Altamira Caves, Santander, Spain do. The paintings are over 14,000 years old. Many of the paintings on the cave walls show animals and people hunting. In one cave, a really big painting showed a bison (a type of animal). We think the paintings tell the story of how people hunted. There were no paints or paintbrushes then so the cave people used the things they found around them. They used sticks, leaves and animal hair for their brushes. They made paint with fruits, plants and blood! When I grow up I want to be an archaeologist like my father. He has a very interesting job and he sees amazing things! Paula White 1

DON QUIXOTE, SANCHO AND THE WINDMILLS
Narrator: A long time ago in Spain in a land called La Mancha, there was a quiet village with a large house. The man who lived in the house was called Alonso Quijano. Alonso read books all day about brave knights. He read so much that sometimes he forgot to eat or sleep. He dreamed about saving women in danger and fighting dragons. One day he decided to become a knight and he changed his name to Don Quixote. He put on his grandfather’s armour and he rode his horse Rocinante. He asked his good friend Sancho Panza to join him and he promised to pay him lots of money in return. This story is about one of their fantastic adventures …

After reading the play, ask the learners What does Don Quixote think the windmills are? (Giants) What does Sancho say? (He says ‘Dear friend’) Does he laugh at Don Quixote? (No) Say Don Quixote is imagining the windmills are giants. Sancho shows understanding and is kind to his friend. In the end, Sancho helps his friend too. Say Imagine someone you know is upset or does something strange. What do you do? (I talk to them. I help them. I listen to them.) Point out that people get upset about things you could think are silly, but you have to respect their feelings and show understanding. Try to comfort them or help them.
Give the learners three situations and they match two of the phrases with each situation: Situation 1: A friend of yours wins a tennis match. He or she is very happy and comes to tell you. What do you say? Situation 2: A friend of yours gets a bad mark in his English exam and he’s very sad. What do you say to him? Situation 3: A friend of yours loses her gloves. She’s very worried – the gloves were new. What do you say to her? You can ask learners to think of other situations when they could use these phrases.
With books closed, ask Who were the two main characters in the story? Write Don Quixote and Sancho Panza on the board. Say Read and think. Don Quixote or Sancho Panza? Write Q or S.

Put the brave flashcard on the board. Write Don Quixote is brave on the board and ask Is that true? What do you think? Learners talk about what the character does in the story and say if they think he is brave. They might say that he wants to be brave but he doesn’t have anything to fight or anyone to save. Ask Is Sancho Panza brave? Learners may disagree. (He is brave because he goes with Don Quixote, but he wants to be paid – brave people don’t usually ask for money. Also, he doesn’t ride towards the windmills.) Ask learners to look at the stories in the units they have done so far. Ask Who is brave? Learners find examples of brave characters (Anastasia, the acrobat in Unit 1; Too-toomoo in Unit 3 because she feeds a dragon; Rama, Sita and Hanuman in Unit 4; Daedalus and Icarus in Unit 5 when they escape from the tower).

Point to the Mission box or show the learners the last stage of the digital Mission poster. Say Let’s put our Mission in action! Let’s go to a job fair. Explain that a job fair is a place where people who want a job can go to find out about different jobs from people who already do these jobs. Put the learners into two groups. Say to one group You are the job experts. You need to use the information about jobs from our Mission. Say to the other group You are looking for a job. You don’t know which job you like. You ask questions and then choose your favourite job. Learners complete the Mission worksheets in the Teacher’s Resource Book. Alternatively, if you do not have the Teacher’s Resource Book, learners use the table they have drawn in their notebooks, with information about jobs. These learners get into pairs who have written about one of the same jobs. Explain that they are going to talk about what the job is and describe the personality of someone who works in that job. Give them time to read their notes and prepare. They also look at the example speech bubbles on the page. If possible, clear space in the classroom, so that each pair can stand at a different desk, as if they were at a stand at a job fair. They make a sign with the name of their job. You could put the flashcard or a picture of the job near each ‘stand’.
TB93
Write the example question What does an actor do? on the board. Practise the question with the ‘job seeking’ group while the other group prepare their ‘stands’. Ask learners for other questions, e.g. Do (actors) work outside? Is it a difficult/dangerous job? What are the best things about the job? Learners in the ‘job seeker’ group move around the classroom in pairs, stopping at different ‘stands’ to ask the ‘experts’ questions. The ‘job experts’ and the ‘job seekers’ swap roles. Extra support ‘Job experts’ prepare a written description of their job and read it out to the ‘job seekers’ who come to the stand. At the end of the activity ask different learners Which is your favourite job at the job fair? Why? For ideas on monitoring and assessment, see Introduction.

SA Ask Which was the most interesting stage of the Mission? Learners look back through the unit and their notebooks/worksheets and choose Stage 1, 2, 3 or 4. Encourage them to give reasons for their answers, e.g. Stage 1 because I learnt about different jobs. Say Our next Mission is ‘Create a guide to a town.’ Ask Do you ever use a map to find the way?
Focus on the ‘Can you remember?’ box. In pairs, learners answer the questions. Check answers. Key: 1 Su-Lin 2 He bought them online. 3 Because he loves taking photos and he wants to buy a new camera 4 Rex 5 Investigates the past 6 Giants

Put the learners into their Mission groups and hand out the maps they made in the earlier stages (or the Mission worksheets, if you have the Teacher’s Resource Book). Each group prepares their presentation in three parts (description of the town and where things are, giving directions, talking about the green spaces). Monitor and help with the preparation stage. Point out that learners need an introduction to the presentation (e.g. Today we’re going to talk to you about our town …) and an ending (e.g. We hope you enjoyed our presentation. Are there any questions?) Make sure each learner in the group will be taking part in the presentation.

Saturday July 15th Day five in Mexico! Today was very interesting. We went to visit a pyramid at the top of the Tepozteco Mountain in Morelos. It was a beautiful walk. We went past waterfalls and amazing rainforests! We walked very far because the pyramid is very high up the mountain. On the way, we saw lots of lizards. We rested at the top of the mountain and we had a picnic. The view was lovely; we could look down on the beautiful town of Tepoztlan. Danny took lots of pictures.
When we were preparing to go back down the mountain, disaster happened! Danny fell and our compass broke. Oh no! How could we find our way with no compass?
We arrived back at the hotel hot and dirty, but safe. Mum is now the superhero of the family. What’s going to happen to us tomorrow?
We couldn’t look at the stars because it was day time. Danny wanted to make a compass but we didn’t have the right materials. Then Mum found the solution. The sun was getting lower in the sky. Of course! The sun rises in the east and it sets in the west. Now we knew where west was and it was easy to find south.

THE STORY OF POPOCATEPETL AND IZTACCIHUATL
Harry and Sophie were on holiday in Mexico with their cousins, Jaime and Alicia. Before they went home, they wanted to climb Popocatepetl. Popocatepetl is a volcano not very far from Mexico City. The night before the climb, they camped at the bottom of the volcano with their mountain climbing guide. Harry and Jaime looked up at the volcano covered with snow.
‘It’s going to be exciting tomorrow,’ said Jaime. Harry was excited, too. ‘What a strange shape that other mountain is,’ said Sophie suddenly. ‘It looks like a woman lying down.’ The guide looked where she was pointing. ‘Yes,’ he said. ‘It does. That’s a volcano, too. Let’s put up the tents before it gets dark, and then I can tell you the story of the two volcanoes.’ After they put up the tents, they all sat down and they listened to the story of Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl.

This is a nice picture. Yes, there are lots of my friends and some of my family in the park. Look, can you see my Aunt Katy? No, which one’s she? She’s the woman with the striped T-shirt. Can you see her? She’s standing near the small boy. Oh, yes. She looks nice. And who’s the little boy with her? The one who’s riding the bike? He’s my young cousin George. He looks great fun. Do you like him? Yes, he’s very funny, but sometimes he’s a bit naughty. And who’s that over there next to the ducks? There are two people there. Which one do you mean? The man. He looks like a photographer. Oh, that’s William. And who’s the woman who’s feeding the ducks? Feeding the ducks? Ah, that’s Sophia. She’s my maths teacher. She looks very kind. Yes, she is. What about the girl who’s climbing the tree? Do you know her name?

Key: George – boy riding a bike William – man taking photos Sophia – woman feeding ducks Holly – girl climbing tree Helen – girl reading comic
Learners move around the board according to the number they roll on the dice. If they land on a question square, the player to their right picks up the card and asks the question. If they answer the question correctly, they stay where they are. If not, they return to their last square. On a green, orange or purple square, they have to say and spell the word (job or past tense form) to stay where they are (they move back to where they were if they can’t remember it). If they land at the bottom of a ladder they go up, and if they land at the top of a rope they go down. The game finishes when one learner gets to the final square, or when all learners finish.

Helen: Great idea! 3 Where is Helen going to go first? Girl 2: Have you got any homework or shall we go to the shops? Helen: I have got some homework.

Page 105 1 Learners work in groups. They need a dice, and a counter each. They choose four things from the green squares and write them in their notebook – they must collect these. Learners move around the board according to the number they roll on the dice. If they land on a question square, the player to their right picks up the card and asks the question. If they answer the question correctly, they stay where they are. If not, they return to their last square. On a green or orange square, they have to say the word or change the verb to the past to stay where they are (they move back to where they were if they can’t remember it). The game finishes when one learner collects all four things written in their notebooks.
