Introduction Exam preparation with Ace! 6

Useful exam tips

The language and skills practice in Ace! has been specificallydesigned for high-level learning contexts and is therefore best suited for state bilingual school programmes. Its comprehensive syllabus and communicative methodology will benefit children preparing to sit external exams such as the Cambridge Preliminary English Test (PET).

In addition to ensuring that the children know all of the Cambridge Preliminary (PET) language items, and focusing on the exam tips in the booklet, the children can be prepared more generally in class.

The topic areas, key vocabulary and required language structures in the Cambridge Preliminary (PET) are mostly well covered in Ace! The Ace! 6 Preliminary (PET) External Exam Booklet is specifically designed to complement the Class Book providing presentation and practice of further areas of language required in the Cambridge Preliminary (PET), including some modals, the past perfect tense and reported speech.

Ace! 6 PET Booklet The Ace! 6 Preliminary (PET) External Exam Booklet forms part of the wide range of Ace! components and has been specifically developed based on the fresh and motivating concept of Ace! to help teachers prepare their students for the Cambridge Preliminary (PET). The Ace! 6 Preliminary (PET) External Exam Booklet consists of four modules. Teachers can choose to either use the booklet material throughout the school year as a supplement to the Class Book and Activity Book, or to cover the booklet content intensively ahead of the exam. The first module includes a grammar review and practice of the language and topics of Units 1-2. The second module includes practice of the language and topics of Units 3-4. The third module includes practice of the language and topics of Units 5-6. The fourth module is more general and should be taught prior to the students taking the exam. The double-page spread of each module consists of grammar practice. Module 1 provides revision of the main tenses practised in Ace! 5 Class Book. Modules 2 and 3 present and practise modal verbs. Module 4 presents and practises the past perfect and reported speech. It also presents and practises grammar points that appear in Units 7-9 of the Ace! 6 Class Book, because classes may not have reached these units before they take the exam. In addition, several minor grammatical points are focused on in other parts of the modules. This ensures that all of the main language required for the Cambridge Preliminary (PET) is thoroughly practised.

When practising speaking exam tasks, remind them to say Hello, or Good morning / Good afternoon at the start of the test and Thank you and Goodbye at the end. As well as teaching the children polite ways to ask the examiner to repeat when something is not clear enough, e.g. Sorry? Could you repeat that please?, teach them some useful fillers, e.g. Let me see ... Well, I think ... I’m not sure, but ... Practise Speaking Part 1 type questions daily as part of your class routine. Remind the children that they must address the examiners exclusively in English, but assure them that the examiners will speak slowly and clearly. Teach and reinforce as much vocabulary in English as possible. Encourage the children to have a vocabulary book and to make lists of words that relate to all the major topics such as: school, home, entertainment, health, sport, holidays, the natural world, science and technology, food, etc. Make lists of common phrasal verbs and practise using them in sentences to reinforce understanding. Make lists of other groups of words such as adjectives, adverbs, compound nouns, verbs and prepositions, etc. Children can lose marks for spelling, so have regular spelling tests and remind them to always check their work for silly mistakes. Encourage the children to gain confidence through plenty of speaking and writing practice in class, and with plenty of praise and encouragement. The modules that follow have been specifically designed to cover the requirements of the Cambridge Preliminary (PET) syllabus. Use this booklet as well as all Ace! 6 materials and resources, including the Ace! External Exams Practice CD-ROM, to carry out extensive classroom practice and ensure the successful performance of your class in the exam. We wish your students every success in their Cambridge Preliminary English Test (PET).

At the end of each main grammar section, there is a My Work section. This self-assessment feature fosters learner awareness by asking children to reflect on what they have learnt, which also gives them a sense of achievement. The skills pages in each module give practice to the tasks in the actual Cambridge Preliminary (PET): the first double-page spread focuses on two of the reading tasks; the second doublepage spread focuses on all three writing tasks; the third doublepage spread focuses on two of the listening tasks; the last double-page spread focuses on all of the speaking tasks. Each exam task is therefore practised at least once in the booklet. These tasks are designed as mock tests for the exam, although some teacher support is recommended to ensure children are able to approach exam tasks confidently.
