Welcome

Welcome to theLanguage Practice Teachers Test CD.

The tests on this CD have all been written to reflect the content of the four books in

theLanguagePractice series.

The CD contains an extensive placement test with an answer key. This can be used to

determine the most appropriateLanguage Practice book for individual students at the

beginning of their course of study.

For each level of theLanguage Practice series (Elementary, Intermediate, First

Certificate andAdvanced) there are a number of grammar practice tests, vocabulary

tests and a final test.

Grammar Tests

The grammar tests contain a range of exercise types, giving students an opportunity to

practise the grammar they have studied in their book. Each test covers approximately

five book units and the unit numbers covered by the test are clearly indicated.

In addition, each grammar test has an A and B version, so that students sitting next to

each other can be tested on the same grammar points, but have to answer slightly

different questions. Alternatively, the second test can be given at a later date to act as

further revision or for students who performed badly in the first test.

Vocabulary TestsThere are four vocabulary tests for each level in the series, each containing a variety

of exercise types, and revising the vocabulary covered in the vocabulary units of the

books.

Final Tests

The final test for each level is a more extensive test of both grammar and vocabulary

and could be used as a final assessment at the end of a course of study.

There is an answer key with a mark scheme for all the tests.

All the tests on this CD are fully editable. This means that any exercises can bedeleted or changed to suit the needs of the individual class. Alternatively, the tests can

be broken down into smaller chunks if time is a factor.

There is enough space in all the tests for students to write their answers on the page.

However, students could also be emailed the tests and fill them in using a word

processor. Completed tests could be then either printed out and marked or emailed

back for marking on-screen.

Using the Placement Test

The test is graded to test items that are progressively more difficult. Therefore, students with no

previous knowledge of English would not normally be required to take the test.

Each answer in the placement test is worth one point.
