INTRODUCTION TO OUTCOMES VOCABULARY BUILDER

Learning vocabulary in collocations and phrases wi l l develop your fluency. And doing a l ittle revision regularly is the best way t o learn vocabulary. That's what the Outcomes Vocabulary Builder (OVB) wi l l help you w i t h .

It has been w r i t t e n t o provide you w i t h the important vocabulary in the Student's Book and t o show you how these words are commonly used. It does not include easier words which you should know from lower levels such as boring, or unusual words, which you probably don't need t o remember at this level.

What each entry contains

• Each entry has a short explanation of the word's meaning and often gives information on other forms or opposites.

• There is then a list of up t o six typical collocations and phrases that the word is used w i t h . • Regular language boxes provide extra information on word families, phrasal verbs etc.

How the OVB is organised

It is organised t o make it quick and easy t o use in class and t o revise at home.

• Each unit in the OVB contains the most important new words from exercises, texts and listenings in the unit of the Student's Book.

• The units are then divided according t o each double page of the Student's Book and the words w i t h i n those pages are w r i t t e n in alphabetical order.

• At the end of each unit there are exercises t o do. • There is an answer key at the back of the book.

Ways you can use the OVB

Read the word list before you study the unit in the book. Translate all the words you don't know based on the explanation. Check the collocations for each word. Do they make sense? Are any different t o your language? In class, if you have forgotten a word, look it up again. Write out the collocation list and add one of your own. Cover words in the list and say or wr ite phrases w i t h the word.Then compare w i t h the collocation list. Choose five t o ten words from the list t o learn each day. Put eight new words in a story using the collocations listed.

Do the exercises at the end of each unit s o m e t i m e after you've done it in class. Then check the answers in the key. Write a list of the words you find diff icult t o remember and w r i t e sentences using the words.
