Read the text. Choose the language skills it mentions. WHAT WAS THE FIRST WORD YOU SAID? Have you ever thought about how babies learn to speak? For the first months of their lives, they cry and make noises, but, in general, children start forming words when they are about 12 months old. Which are the first words they say? Sometimes, they are the words they hear most often, sometimes the words for things they like. They usually start with words like mama, papa or dada. Some scientists say that sounds like ma, da, pa and ba are the easiest sounds to make, so when parents are very happy because their child is saying mama, in fact the baby is just experimenting with making noises! a) reading / b) listening / c) speaking / d) writing All children begin learning their language first by listening and then speaking. They start with words for objects, like car or dog, then verbs for actions, like drink or eat, slowly adding other kinds of words to make sentences. They can understand more difficult words and sentences, but they can’t say them. Some children speak more than others (just like adults!) and some children speak earlier than others, but by practising they all learn in the end. One mother tells the story of her son who didn’t speak until he was four years old. Before then, he pointed when he wanted something or just made strange noises. One day, he came into the kitchen for breakfast and said, ‘Can I have some chocolate cereal, please?’ And then, he never stopped chatting. So when you start to learn another language, remember that it took years for you to learn yours! If you keep listening and trying hard to speak, you improve, just like in your own language.

Babies can learn any language. No language is more difficult than another. Most children say their first words between 11 and 14 months old. A boy from the USA, Michael Kearney, spoke his first words when he was four months old and finished secondary school when he was six years old. Did you know? Prepare 3 в презентациях

My name’s Mario and I’m from Italy. Today, I’m going to talk about my experience learning English. When I was small I didn’t like learning English. There was too much vocabulary and too many sounds. I couldn’t remember them all. I only had class three hours a week, so we didn’t practise much. Really, I didn’t understand why I had to say things in a different way when I only needed my own language to have fun with my friends and family. Everything changed one summer when I was on holiday at the beach. I met two boys about my age who were brothers. We played football on the sand and swam in the sea. But they didn’t speak Italian, they only spoke English. I listened carefully when they were talking and slowly, I began to understand some words. I really wanted to talk to them, so I pointed at things I wanted to know the vocabulary for. They told me the words and I wrote them in a little book I had and drew pictures to show the meaning. For example, I drew a boat, an ice cream, a fish and a crab. At the end of the holiday they gave me their email address and we all went home. I started to write to them, but I needed more words. I found lots of useful things in an online dictionary. I also started watching English films and series. It was hard at first, but I learnt more and more. Finally, when my friends write to me now, I hardly ever need a dictionary. Next summer I am going to stay with them for a week and then they are coming to stay here. I can’t wait!

Work in small groups. Individually, think of something you read in English that was interesting - a web page, a blog, a game, an article, a book, etc. or something you enjoyed watching in English — a video, a film, a series, a cartoon, an activity from your coursebook, etc. In your group, prepare a short information page about each idea. Include: the title, what it is, where you can find it (the link to a web page or a video etc.), your opinion, photos, screenshots or drawings. Present your idea to the class. Try to use some of the expressions from Exercise 9 and be ready to answer any questions about it. Create a class file for everyone and add new pages when you find other interesting things to read or watch in English. Prepare 3 в презентациях
