Introduction

Hello again from English Banana.com!

Welcome to our latest book of worksheets for English lessons. This is the fifth book

we’ve produced and we hope it’s the best one yet! It’s packed from cover to cover

with worksheets that will really inspire learners, covering a huge variety of language

areas. It’s aimed at learners who are studying at about Level 1 and can be used with

all types of English classes, as well as for home study, since the answers to all of the

activities, plus notes for using the worksheets, are included at the back of the book.

The book is similar to our last book – the big activity book – in that it’s divided into

sections according to type of language skills being practised, namely grammar,

vocabulary, spelling, reading, speaking & listening, and research skills. There are

some activities that continue on from worksheets in the last book, for example more

worksheets on abstract nouns and common idioms, more material on adjectives and

synonyms, and more advanced spelling challenges, as well as two brand new

reading comprehension tests.

We’ve included lots of exclusive material that has been written especially for this

book and hasn’t been available anywhere else before, including worksheets on ‘its or

it’s’, adverbs, syllables, understanding maps, and Calculator Code Words. We hope

that there’s loads of stuff here for learners of English to get their teeth into –

wherever you may be studying! Judging from the many emails we receive, you’re

finding our materials helpful in lots of different learning environments, including

schools, colleges, prisons, and home schooling groups. The worksheets are

designed to be flexible, so feel free to adapt them to suit your needs, whether you’re

teaching Basic Skills Literacy, ESOL, EFL, ESL, EAL, TESL, TEFL, TESOL, or even

just simply English! It’s all about helping learners to improve their English skills –

reading, writing, speaking and listening – and that’s what the aim of English

Banana.com has always been. Why not let us know what you think of our stuff?

We hope you will really enjoy using this book with your learners or as a self-study

tool. Thanks once again to all my present and past learners who have helped in

trialling these worksheets. Particular favourites that they liked were the ‘Using

Numbers – At the Chinese Restaurant’ activity on pages 71-72, the Calculator Code

Words on pages 65-67, and the Amazing Maze Game on page 81. Why not let us

know what you liked, and what kind of worksheets you’d like us to publish next?
