needs. We will work through Units 1-2 (eight readings) during semester one and Units 3-4 (8 readings) during semester                                     

two. The goal is to maximize academic language proficiency. 

 1. Listening

b. Words and sentences for close listening and to model pronunciation 

c. Listen and read sections to further develop students’ confidence 

2. Speaking 

a. Tasks that provide a regular opportunity for extended and prepared speaking based around realistic topics and situations 

b. Practice of grammar through class exercises and activities 

c. Topics and reading texts in each unit provide opportunities for follow-up discussion 

d. Regular integrated work on pronunciation 

3. Reading 

a. Wide range of reading material in the Student Book, including factual/scientific texts, stories, quizzes, forms, notes  

and emails 

b. Extended texts which lead to grammar work and language analysis 

c. Texts which provide a model or stimulus for tasks and a model for writing activities 

4. Writing 

a. Writing sections which focus on writing e-mails and letters, composing narratives and reviews, drafting and redrafting. 

 Additional Skills: 

In addition to the four areas of language proficiency highlighted above, the students will also be given                                 

encouragement and introduction to utilise critical thinking, collaboration and group work, leadership and responsibility                           

with their use of language. Along with the core text materials students will receive periodically, additionally compiled                                 

sheets and activities to supplement these needs. 

     

Goals/ Expected Learning Outcomes 

The students will be able to read, understand, discuss, and write about the informational texts and classic and                                   

contemporary literature covered in class. Students will learn new academic vocabulary and demonstrate mastery of                             

skills.

Matayom: 1 Semester: 1 Academic Year : 2018  Course Description 

In this course students will study: 

M.1 Additional English is an introductory course in Critical Reading and Creative Writing. Although all four skills                                 

will be developed, the focus of this course will be on reading and writing. For reading, students will be exposed to                                         

articles from a wide variety of sources including newspapers, the Internet, short stories, poetry, and children’s novels.                                 

Most will be authentic texts equivalent to those taught in Britain and North America. Each student will also be                                     

expected to read supplementary material by the end of the year. 

For writing, students will be instructed in writing both factual and opinion compositions, as well as fiction and poetry.                                     

These will take the form of letters, articles for a newspaper or magazine, and narrative stories. Specific points to be                                       

covered will include paragraph writing (introductory, transitional and concluding sentences) and the use of a                             

progressively expanded vocabulary. 

 Goals/ Expected Learning Outcomes The 

students will be able to : 

- To enable students to reach native speaker reading and writing ability  

- To consolidate the grammar taught in the Core Course (Eng. 21101) 

- To develop the students’ abilities to write cohesive sentence structures and paragraphs To  

enhance the students’ critical thinking abilities 

- To increase students’ abilities to guess new words from their context, and use newly acquired vocabulary in 

their writing
