Smart Time Grade 12 is a course for learners studying British
English at intermediate level. It allows a flexibility of approach
w
hich makes it suitable for classes of all kinds, including large
or mixed ability classes.
Smart Time Grade 12 consists of nine units. Each unit consists
of six-seven lessons plus Progress Check. An additional Skills
section appears in some of the units. The corresponding units in
the Workbook provide the option of additional practice.
COURSE COMPONENTS
Student’s Book – Workbook & Grammar Book
The Student’s Book is the main component of the course.
Each unit is based on a single theme and the topics covered
are of general interest. All units follow the same basic
s
tructure (see Elements of the Coursebook).
The Workbook is in full colour and contains units
corresponding to those in the Student’s Book containing
practice in all four language skills. It also contains a Grammar
Bank with theory and exercises, a Vocabulary Bank with
exercises, a Quizzes section and a Translator’s Corner
section. It can be used either in class or for homework upon
completion of the relevant unit in the Student’s Book.
Teacher’s Book
The Teacher’s Book contains Teacher's Notes which provide
step-by-step lesson plans and suggestions about how to
present the material. This book also includes a complete Key
to the exercises in the Student’s Book & Workbook &
Grammar Book and the audioscripts of the listening material.
Teacher’s Resource Pack & Tests CD-ROM
The Teacher’s Resource Pack contains exercises to
consolidate what students have been taught in each module,
as well as games, pairwork activities, portfolio activities, tests
and a key to all exercises. The Test CD-ROM contains the
tests in the Teacher’s Resource Pack in word format, as well
as all recorded material and audioscript that accompany the
tests.
Class Audio CDs
The Class Audio CDs contain all the recorded material which
accompanies the course. This includes the monologues /
dialogues and texts in the Listening and Reading sections as
well as the Pronunciation / Intonation section, and the
material for all listening tasks in the Workbook & Grammar
Book.
IWB
The IWB contains all the material in the Student’s Book,
Teacher’s Book and Audio CDs and aims to facilitate lessons in
the classroom. It also contains grammar presentation of all the
grammar structures in the Student’s Book as well as video
extracts for Ss to further practise their English and expand their
knowledge.
ieBook
The ieBook contains all the material in the Student’s Book and is
the Ss’ interactive study partner.
ELEMENTS OF THE COURSEBOOK
Each unit begins with a brief overview of what will be covered
in the unit.
Each unit contains the following sections:
Reading
T
he reading texts practise specific reading skills such as
skimming, scanning, intensive reading for specific purposes,
understanding text structure, and so on. The texts are usually
exploited in four stages:
a warm-up activity to intrigue students
top-down activities (scanning and reading for gist)
bottom-up activities (reading for detailed understanding)
oral reproduction (Ss outline the main points of the text)
written reproduction (Ss summarise the main points of
the text)
Grammar in use
The grammar structures of each unit are contextualised
and presented by means of illustrations or pictures and
clear and concise theory boxes.
Grammar exercises and activities reinforce Ss’
understanding of these items. There is also a Grammar
Reference section at the back of the Student’s Book that
offers more details.
Vocabulary / Vocabulary plus
Pictures are employed to introduce Ss to the vocabulary of
each unit. Vocabulary is practised through various types of
exercises. A particular feature of the book is the teaching of
collocations, which helps Ss remember vocabulary items as
parts of set expressions.
(See Student’s Book Ex. 6, p. 57).
Listening skills and Speaking skills
Ss can develop their listening skills through a variety of
tasks. These tasks employ the vocabulary and grammar
practised in each unit, in this way reinforcing
understanding of the language taught in the unit.
Controlled speaking activities have been carefully
designed to allow Ss guided practice before leading
them to freer speaking activities.
The sections provide practice in real-life communication.
Standard expressions and language structures
associated with realistic situations are extensively
practised.
Pronunciation / Intonation
Pronunciation activities help Ss recognise sounds and
reproduce them correctly. Intonation activities help Ss
improve their intonation patterns.
Writing skills
The writing sections have been carefully designed to ensure
that Ss systematically develop their writing skills.
A model text is presented and thoroughly analysed, and
guided practice of the language to be used is provided.
The final task is based on the model text and follows the
detailed plan provided.
All writing activities are based on realistic types and
styles of writing such as letters, emails, descriptions,
essays, stories and summary writing.

Introduction
02 ST gr12 VIET Ts Intro.qxp_02 ST gr12 VIET Ts Intro.qxp 6/21/17 5:53 PM Page 6
CLIL / Culture Spot – Culture
Each unit is accompanied by a CLIL section and a Culture
Spot section.
Each CLIL section enables Ss to link the themes of the unit
to a subject from their school curriculum, thus helping them
contextualise the language they have learnt by relating it to
their own personal frame of reference. Lively and creative
tasks stimulate Ss and allow them to consolidate the
language they have learnt throughout the unit.
In each Culture Spot section, Ss are provided with
cultural information and read about aspects of English
speaking countries that are thematically linked to the
unit. Ss are given the chance to process the information
they have learnt and compare it to the culture of their
own country. An extra section at the back of the book
familiarises Ss with the culture of their country.
Progress Check
T
hese follow every unit and reinforce Ssunderstanding of the
topics, vocabulary, and structures that have been presented.
Skills
Skills sections provide more practice on reading, listening,
speaking, use of English and writing.
Competences
At the end of each unit a grading scheme allows Ss to evaluate
their progress and identify their weaknesses. The objectives of
the unit and the Ss’ achievements are clearly stated.
Tips
Brief tips, explanations, and reminders at various points
throughout each unit help Ss develop strategies which improve
holistic learning skills and enable Ss to become autonomous
learners of the English language.
Grammar Reference section
This section offers full explanations and review of the grammar
structures presented throughout the book. It can be used both
in class and at home to reinforce the grammar structures taught.
Videos
Videos are thematically related to the topics of the course.
The video icon indicates that there is a video which the
teacher can play to introduce the topic or to provide extra
material for classroom activities.
Presentation Skills
This section provides practice in preparing and giving a variety
of presentations. A step-by-step approach to building students
abilities and confidence helps students to become memorable
public speakers. The section includes brainstorming, note-
taking, Tips and Plan & Useful Language along with model
presentations. It aims to help students become public speakers.
Word List
A complete Word List contains the new vocabulary
presented in each module, listed alphabetically, with a
phonetic transcription of each word and explanation.
Irregular Verbs
This provides students with a quick reference list for verb
forms they might be unsure of at times.
SUGGESTED TEACHING TECHNIQUES
A Presenting new vocabulary
Much of the new vocabulary in Smart Time Grade 12 is
presented through pictures.
(See Student’s Book, Unit 1, p. 9,
Ex. 1.)
Further techniques that you may use to introduce new
vocabulary include:
Miming. Mime the word you want to introduce. For
instance, to present the verb sing, pretend you are
singing and ask Ss to guess the meaning of the word.
Synonyms, opposites, paraphrasing, and giving
definitions. Examples:
present the word strong by giving a synonym:
“powerful”.
present the word strong by giving its opposite: “weak”.
present the word weekend by paraphrasing it:
“Saturday and Sunday”.
present the word famous for by giving its definition:
“very well-known (person or thing)”.
Example. Examples place vocabulary into context and
consequently make understanding easier. For instance,
introduce the words city and town by referring to a city
and a town in the Ss’ country: “Ho Chi Minh is a city, but
Bac Ha is a town.”
Sketching. Draw a simple sketch of the word or words
you want to explain on the board. For instance:
Flashcards. Flashcards made out of magazine or
newspaper pictures, photographs, ready-made
drawings, and any other visual material may also serve
as vocabulary teaching tools.
Use of L1. In a monolingual class, you may explain
vocabulary in the Ss’ native language (Vietnamese). This
method, though, should be employed in moderation.
Use of Dictionary. In a multilingual class, Ss may
occasionally refer to a bilingual dictionary.
The choice of technique depends on the type of word or
expression. For example, you may find it easier to describe an
action verb through miming than through a synonym or
definition.
B Choral and individual repetition
Repetition will ensure that Ss are thoroughly familiar with the
sound and pronunciation of the lexical items and structures
being taught and confident in their ability to reproduce them.
Always ask Ss to repeat chorally before you ask them to
repeat individually. Repeating chorally will help Ss feel
confident enough to then perform the task on their own.
C Listening and Reading
You may ask Ss to read and listen for a variety of purposes:
Listening for detail. Ss listen for specific information.
(See Student’s Book, Unit 1, p. 9, Ex. 2)
Listening and reading for gist. Ss read or / and listen to
get the gist of the dialogue or text being dealt with.
(See
Student’s Book, Unit 1, p. 10, Ex. 1. Tell Ss that in
order to complete this task successfully, they do not
need to understand every single detail in the text.)
Note: Check these words sections can be treated as
follows: Go through the list of words after Ss have read the
text and ask Ss to explain the words using the context they
appear in. Ss can give examples, mime / draw the meaning,
or look up the meaning in their dictionaries.
happy
sad
ii
02 ST gr12 VIET Ts Intro.qxp_02 ST gr12 VIET Ts Intro.qxp 6/21/17 5:53 PM Page 7
Reading for detail. Ask Ss to read for specific
information.
(See Student’s Book, Unit 1, p. 10, Ex. 2.
S
s will have to read to the text in order to do the task.
They are looking for specific details in the text and not
for general information.)
D Speaking
Speaking activities are initially controlled, allowing for
guided practice. (See Student’s Book, Unit 2, p. 32, Ex. 3
where Ss use the same structures to act out a dialogue.)
Ss are then led to free speaking activities. (
See
Student’s Book, Unit 2, p. 27, Ex. 3 where Ss are
provided with the necessary lexical items and
structures and are asked to act out their dialogue.)
E Writing
All writing tasks in Smart Time Grade 12 have been carefully
designed to closely guide Ss to produce a successful piece of
writing.
Always read the rubric and model text provided and deal
with the tasks that follow in detail. Ss will then have
acquired the necessary language to deal with the final
writing task.
(See Student’s Book, Unit 3, pp. 42-43.)
Make sure that Ss understand that they are writing for a
purpose. Go through the writing task in detail so that Ss
are fully aware of why they are writing and who they are
writing to.
(See Student’s Book, Unit 3, p. 43, Ex. 7. Ss
are asked to write an email.)
Make sure Ss follow the detailed plan they are provided
with. (See Student’s Book, Unit 3, p. 43.)
It would be well-advised to actually complete the task
orally in class before assigning it as written homework.
Ss will then feel more confident with producing a
complete piece of writing on their own.
F Assigning homework
When assigning writing tasks, prepare Ss as well as possible
in advance. This will help them avoid errors and get maximum
benefit from the task.
Commonly assigned tasks include:
Copy – Ss copy an assigned extract;
Dictation Ss learn the spelling of particular words without
memorising the text in which they appear;
Vocabulary Ss memorise the meaning of words and
phrases or use the new words in sentences of their own;
Reading Aloud Assisted by the ieBook, Ss practise at home
in preparation for reading aloud in class;
Writing – After thorough preparation in class, Ss are asked to
produce a complete piece of writing.
G Correcting students’ work
All learners make errors it is part of the learning process. The
way you deal with errors depends on what the Ss are doing.
Oral accuracy work:
Correct Ss on the spot, either by providing the correct
answer and allowing them to repeat, or by indicating the
error but allowing Ss to correct it. Alternatively, indicate the
error and ask other Ss to provide the answer.
Oral fluency work:
Allow Ss to finish the task without interrupting, but make a
note of the errors made and correct them afterwards.
Written work:
Do not over-correct; focus on errors that are directly
relevant to the point of the exercise. When giving
feedback, you may write the most common errors on the
board and get the class to attempt to correct them.
Remember that rewarding work and praising Ss is of great
importance. Post well written work on a display board in your
classroom or school, or give “reward” stickers. Praise effort
as well as success.
H Class organisation
Open pairs
The class focuses its attention on two Ss doing the set
task together. Use this technique when you want your
Ss to offer an example of how a task is done. (See Ex. 4
on p. 12 of the Student’s Book.)
Closed pairs
Pairs of Ss work together on a task or activity while you
move around offering assistance and suggestions.
Explain the task clearly before beginning closed
pairwork.
(See Ex. 7 on p. 39 of the Student’s Book.)
Stages of pairwork
Put Ss in pairs.
Explain the task and set time limit.
Rehearse the task in open pairs.
In closed pairs, get Ss to do the task.
Go around the class and help Ss.
Open pairs report back to the class.
Group work
Groups of three or more Ss work together on a task or
activity. Class projects or role play are most easily done
in groups. Again, give Ss a solid understanding of the
task in advance.
Rolling questions
Ask Ss one after the other to ask and answer questions
based on the texts.
I Using the ieBook
Dialogues, texts and Pronunciation sections are recorded on
the ieBook. Ss have the chance to listen to these recordings
at home as many times as they want to improve their
pronunciation and intonation.
S listens to the recording and follows the lines.
S listens to the recording with pauses after every
sentence / exchange. S repeats as many times as
needed, trying to imitate the speaker’s pronunciation
and intonation.
S listens to the recording again. S reads aloud.
J Using L1 in class
Use L1 in moderation and only when necessary.
