Module 1 Consolidation

Dear students!

In Module 1, you have explored a number of techniques and approaches of building your word power and enhancing your vocabulary skills. 

As a way to test your understanding of the material of this module and your ability to incorporate active vocabulary in your speaking, you will be offered two communicative tasks:

1) Pictures for discussion in pairs followed by
2) Individual questions related to the themes of the module.

Here's a sample task:

Look at two pictures, compare them and answer the questions:
