Allocate 12 hours for each two-week lesson�

• Listening and speaking: 2 hours • Reading and viewing: 5 hours • Writing and presenting: 4 hours • Language structures and conventions: 1 hour

Each activity in this book has been developed to meet these times�

In your personal timetabling, account for 12 English lessons (6 hours) per week; 24 English lessons (12 hours) per two-week lesson�

Week 1

• 2 x 1-hour listening and speaking activities • 3 x 1-hour reading and viewing activities • 1 x 30-minute reading activity for independent reading • 1 x 30-minute language structures and conventions activity

Week 2

• 1 x 1-hour reading and viewing activity • 1 x 30-minute reading activity for independent reading • 4 x 1-hour writing and presenting activities • 1 x 30-minute language structures and conventions activity
