What useful practice looks like

  • The English Alphabet: I can name and recognise all 26 letters, capital and small.
  • Sounds and Spelling: I can read short regular words aloud.
  • Numbers 0 to 100: I can say numbers, ages, phone numbers and simple prices.

Use true information where possible. A sentence about your own routine, work or plans is easier to remember than a sentence copied from a model.

A practical study routine

  1. Read the lesson objective before the explanation.
  2. Say the model aloud once, then change at least two details.
  3. Complete the check without opening the answer first.
  4. Record or write the mission on your own device.
  5. At the checkpoint, name one error you corrected and one skill that still needs practice.

How to know you are ready to continue

Do not judge readiness by reading speed. You are ready when you can complete the checkpoint task with a clear message, understandable language and no copied answer. A small number of errors is normal at Pre-A1; errors should not hide your meaning.

If the checkpoint is difficult, repeat the lesson whose outcome matches the problem. That is faster than restarting the whole module.
