WELCOMEWelcome to the Language Practice Teacher’s Test CD TESTS.The tests have all been written to reflect the content of the four books in the Language Practice series.This TAGGED, CLICKABLE PDF FILE (based on the CD) contains an extensive placement test with an

Page 2: Practise Elem

answer key. This can be used to determine the most appropriate Language Practice book for individual students atthe beginning of their course of study.For each level of the Language Practice series (Elementary, Intermediate, First Certificate and Advanced)there are a number of grammar practice tests, vocabulary tests and a final test.

GRAMMAR TESTSThe grammar tests contain a range of exercise types, giving students an opportunity to practise the grammar theyhave studied in their book. Each test covers approximately five book units and the unit numbers covered by the testare clearly indicated.In addition, each grammar test has an A and B version, so that students sitting next to each other can be tested onthe same grammar points, but have to answer slightly different questions. Alternatively, the second test can begiven 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 revisingthe vocabulary covered in the vocabulary units of the books.

FINAL TESTSThe final test for each level is a more extensive test of both grammar and vocabulary and could be used as a finalassessment at the end of a course of study.There is an answer key with a mark scheme for all the tests.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 pdf-convertor / a word processor.Completed tests could be then either printed out and marked or emailed back for marking on-screen.

USING THE PLACEMENT TESTThe 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.
