A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Print student pages 1-2; keep the final answer-and-explanation page for marking.
- Explain the two response formats without demonstrating an actual test answer, then allow 20-25 minutes.
- Mark both sections and compare a correct multiple-choice choice with the learner's ability to produce related forms.
- Use the key's grammar explanations to select two priorities, then ask for new examples in a short conversation.
Support and extension
Treat the result as a sample of knowledge, not an A1 certificate. Leave a gap before using another version so the learner practises the underlying grammar.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
