What this module changes

This module focuses on Places and Ability. You begin by learning to i can say what is in my home or street. The final lesson asks you to i can describe my home and say what I can do without copying the original model.

Level: A1 early. There are 6 connected lessons. Complete them in order if the topic is new, or use the list to locate one specific gap.

What useful practice looks like

  • There Is, There Are: I can say what is in my home or street.
  • In, On, Under, Next To: I can say where things are.
  • Home and Furniture Words: I can name rooms and things at home.

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 A1 early; 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.
