The Coverage, Grammar and Functional Language Teaching Resource

The slides within this resource, although detailed, are designed to be used as a starting point for teachers to construct lessons around the language points that are explored here. The slides are intended to be used individually as a resource within a lesson and to be incorporated as part of instruction incrementally throughout the term to ensure that students have been exposed to all the language points in the coverage ahead of their end of term exam. Therefore, the PowerPoint should not be presented at a single event or in its entirety. Some functional language points may overlap with grammatical points in the coverage, and in that case, it is possible to combine slides. However, this resource should be considered to be a collection of individual slides that teachers can use to enhance students’ learning.

Within this document, you will find information about the coverage for this term. The lexis family that assessments will contain is mentioned as well as the particular grammatical and functional language points that will be tested in the exams at the end of this term. In the preparation sections, you will find examples and explanations for the grammatical and functional language points that will be assessed this term.

The grammar preparation section has an example sentence that illustrates the grammatical point. It follows this with an explanation of the meaning of the example sentence. Next, the specific grammatical structure used within the example sentence is detailed and links given to further resources. Next is an explanation of the circumstances under which the particular structure is used. More example sentences using the structure are given at the end of the slide.

In the functional language preparation section, there are examples of the particular language point followed by an explanation of how the particular are used. In the associated grammar section, language points that comprise the structure or can be used to in conjunction with the language point to express the stipulated function are detailed.

Term 3 preparation: Grammar

Some birds use their wings for swimming underwater.
Meaning	The sentence describes the way that birds swim.
Grammatical structure	Verb forms: gerunds ‘for’ + verb–ing
Usage	A gerund is the –ing form of a verb that behaves like a noun. We use ‘for’ before a gerund to say why something is done or its purpose.
Other examples	What do you use for washing your car? I recommend the new hotel for swimming. The money is for buying new books.

I have been to the cinema twice this year.
Meaning	The person is describing their trips to the cinema.
Grammatical structure	Present time: present perfect have + past participle + ‘been’ / ‘gone’
Usage	The present perfect tense is used to talk about an experience from the past which is still true up to the moment of speaking. We use the present perfect with ‘been’ or ‘gone’ to talk about places.
Other examples	Have you been to Jebal Jais? They’ve gone swimming. He’s gone to the supermarket.

That is the best movie I have seen this year.
Meaning	The person is describing how they enjoyed watching the film more than any other movie in the past year.
Grammatical structure	Present time: present perfect the + superlative adjective + object + present perfect (have + past participle)
Usage	The present perfect tense is used to talk about an experience from the past which is still true up to the moment of speaking. We use the present perfect with a superlative adjective for emphasis with a time reference and we can also use it with ‘ever’ before the main verb.
Other examples	What is the tallest animal you’ve ever seen? That was the hardest exam I’ve taken so far. It is the worst holiday I’ve ever had.

The weather report will be finished by then.
Meaning	The sentence is describing when a specific future event will be over, but we don’t know who the doer of the action in the event will be.
Grammatical structure	Passives: future simple passive ‘going to / will’ + be + past participle
Usage	‘Going to’ and ‘will’ can be used with a verb phrase to describe plans and arrangements. They can also be used to describe a future event or activity. The passive voice is used when the person or object that experiences an action is more important than who or what did the action.
Other examples	The exam is going to be marked tomorrow. The car is going to be sold. The house will be built next year.

If we looked after the environment better, the animals would be happy.
Meaning	The speaker is suggesting that the way to improve animals’ lives is to take more care of the planet.
Grammatical structure	Conditionals: second conditional ‘if’ clause/condition + past simple + would/could + rest of sentence
Usage	The second conditional can be used to describe a hypothetical present or future situation. It is used to talk about situations that are unlikely. In the example above, it is unlikely that we will look after the environment.
Other examples	I would visit the rainforests in Asia, if I had the time. If it weren’t so hot, I could walk outside in the park. If you had AED 1,000,000, you could travel around the world.

That tree is so big! It must be one of the tallest trees in the world.
Meaning	The speaker is guessing, but is fairly certain about the size of the tree.
Grammatical structure	Modals: present modals (deduction) subject + modal (must / can’t) + infinitive for inferences about the present
Usage	When making guesses based on present evidence, we use ‘must’ when we are certain of something, and we use ‘can’t’ to suggest it is impossible.
Other examples	It must be a mistake. That is too much. He’s very good at running. He must train every day. It can’t be very safe to drive. The roads are wet.
