If your students are at a very low level, look out for the Extra support ideas in the Teacher’s Book If they are stronger, look out for the Extra challenge ideas The A and B tests There are two versions (A and B) of each File test and of the End-of-course test (except the Speaking tests, which are designed for students to in pairs) If your students don’t copy each other then you can just use the A tests If your students copy each other then put them in pairs, one with an A test and one with a B test – it’s almost impossible for them to copy each other’s answers (The A and B tests cover exactly the same material, but the questions have been changed and reorganized.) The skills tests include KET-type exercises which reflect the format of the KET exam 50 25 25 100 If you only ‘Grammar, Vocabulary, and Pronunciation’, double your students’ mark to give a total score out of 100, e.g Grammar, Vocabulary, Pronunciation mark 38 50 Total score 76 100 If you ‘Grammar, Vocabulary, and Pronunciation’ and ‘Reading and Writing’, but not ‘Listening and Speaking’, double your students’ ‘Reading and Writing’ mark to give a percentage, e.g Grammar, Vocabulary, and Pronunciation mark Reading, Writing mark 38 50 18/25 = 36 50 Total score 74 100 There are marking guidelines for Writing and Speaking on page These tests may be photocopied freely for classroom use They may not be adapted, printed, or sold without the permission of Oxford University Press Listening tests All the Listening tests re-use listenings from the Student’s Book Some students may remember the contexts of the listenings, but they are very unlikely to remember the detail, and the listening exercises are all KET-type tasks which are different from the tasks that students have already done The Listening numbers 1.19 are indicated in the Answer key Answer key The Answer key for the tests starts on page 71 There are separate keys for the A and B versions of the tests New English File Elementary photocopiable © Oxford University Press 2004 Marking guidelines WR ITI N G 10 MAR KS Task completion The task is fully completed and the answer easy to understand marks Grammar The student uses appropriate structures to achieve the task Minor errors not obscure the meaning marks Voc abular y The student uses a sufficient range of words and phrases to communicate the message clearly marks S P EAKI N G 15 MAR KS Interactive communic ation The student communicates effectively with his / her partner, asking and answering simple questions, and where necessary initiating conversation, and responding The student uses appropriate strategies to complete the task successfully marks Grammar and Voc abular y The student uses a sufficient range of vocabulary and structure to communicate clearly Minor occasional errors not impede communication marks Pronunciation The student’s intonation, stress, and articulation of sounds make the message clear and comprehensible marks New English File Elementary photocopiable © Oxford University Press 2004 Entry test ‘Is that car Japanese?’ ‘Yes, _ is.’ G R AM MAR A he The verb be A I a student B I’m a student C I be a student A What your name?
