INTRODUCTION
It is not expected that teachers/lecturers need work through all sections
from beginning to end. The same language can, and should, be used
across the topics. For example, Section 4 (numbers/prices/times) may
be accessed for the various topics of Shopping, Travel or School as
desired, for Personal Language, Transactional Language and Language
in Work.
The following topic development areas are not included:
• Personal identification: friends/colleagues/fellow
students/pets/colours
• House/Home town: accommodation
• Free time: leisure activities/interests (except for sports)
• School/college: classroom language/objects
• Shopping: presents/souvenirs
• Hospitality: hotel/campsite/hostel
