Northstar Listening And Speaking 5 With Interactive Student Book Access Code And Myenglishlab

Unlock is a four-level academic skills course that combines thought-provoking video from Discovery Education(TM) with carefully scaffolded exercises and a fresh approach to critical thinking skills. Unlock Listening and Speaking Skills Level 1 provides 60-90 hours of classroom material. Access to the Online Workbook is provided via a code packaged with the Student’s Book. Critical Thinking sections give students frameworks to formulate their own opinions and express themselves effectively in the end-of-unit academic tasks. Unique research into common learner errors (using the Cambridge English Corpus) focuses the language used in Unlock on those areas learners find most challenging. Videos from Discovery Education(TM) (accessible via the Cambridge Learning Management System and supplied on the Teacher’s Book DVD) provide new angles on a range of academic subjects.

Part A consists of five complete listening tests. The recordings are based on authentic listening material and contain a variety of accents and sound effects. Part B consists of five speaking tests and covers a wide variety of topics such as the media, the environment, unemployment, etc. Each speaking test is preceded by a speaking practice section. In this section students are familiarised with the essential language and ideas necessary for the test itself. Students are also trained to organise their speech coherently and to display a wide variety of linguistic resources. Both the speaking practice sections and the speaking tests include peer assessment tasks in order to prepare students for Part C of the speaking exam. Key to the Student's Book contains all the answers, as well as tapescripts of all the Listening sections in the Student´s Book and suggested answers for the Speaking Tests.
