Description of activity:

This is a complex booklet preparing for Cambridge Key (for Schools) Speaking Part 2, which has been in its current format since 2020: candidates are required to lead a short discussion about preferences (likes and dislikes), give reasons, and answer follow-up questions about the topic. 

This material covers 21 topics and offers 35 sets of visuals and questions to rehearse this part of the speaking papers.

The visuals in the real exam are black and white; here, some of them are in colour.

The format and the instructions strictly follow the official standards of the exam.

The pages are suitable for general vocabulary revision too.

Time: 35 x 10 min (if the part is rehearsed only once as in real life, however, it can be extended to a 30-minute activity: eliciting lexical items, rehearsal, pair-swap: rehearsal again, feedback session)
