Anne Robinson is the Senior Presenter for Cambridge ESOL in Spain and co-author of the Fun for Starters, Movers and Flyers series. In this article, Anne explains a few of the changes happening in 2018 in the Cambridge English: Movers test and shares practical activities to help young learners prepare for the picture task element. You can find more tips like these on the World of Fun site.

In my previous article, I shared tips for spotting details in a Starters scene picture and for noticing things which can help students do different picture-based tasks in the Cambridge English: Starters Test.

In this article, I'm going to share tips for the new Movers Reading and Writing Part 6 task.

Students have to complete two sentences, answer two questions and write two sentences of their own. They are given an example of a complete the sentence and an answer the question as we can see here.

The first example: These people are at a circus. This has one word as the answer, which is absolutely fine, but maybe stronger, inspired students might write a longer answer, like big circus or funny circus.

In the second example (the question) a green tennis ball is a fantastic answer - it's four words long! The answer could also be shorter - two words - for example: a ball. and still be correct.

After reading the two examples, students then complete two more sentences and answer another two questions about the picture. As I said before, shorter and longer answers are possible.

For sentence 1, we can't really vary the answer. Students have to know 'tennis racket'. But for sentence two, there is more than one possible answer.
And in ' Answer the questions ', there will usually be several possible answers, so, work on this in class (by having a competition, perhaps?).

Set students the target of writing or saying as many sentences as possible about the people in the picture. To help them do this, train students to think of the kinds of things they can describe, like:

what things or people are like (The penguin is black and white.)

how they look (The penguin is really happy.)

their opinion of them (The penguin is lovely.)

what people are doing (The penguin is dancing./standing./ looking at the boy.)

where people or things are (The penguin is at the circus./ near the pool./ in front of the clown.)

After completing 2 sentences and answering 2 questions, students are asked to write 2 sentences of their own about the picture. To help them, train them to spot which things have already been described in the sentences or in the answers to the questions.

In this picture, which things have already been talked about?
the ball
the parrot
the penguin
the pirate
the boy

Which things in the picture have not been described?

So, they could write sentences about these people and things, couldn't they?

If we've trained students to notice what things or people are like, how they look, their opinion of them, what people are doing, where people or things are and to be able to describe them in simple sentences, then they should have no problem with the Write two sentences about the picture task.

However, we should train them to try and use a variety in structure if they can. In the tips for preparing learners in the Handbook for teachers for exams from 2018, this advice is given for Movers Reading and Writing Part 6:

"They may find it useful to copy words and phrases from the previous questions about the picture if they wish. However, two identical or virtually identical sentences here (i.e. questions 5 and 6) will result in a maximum score of 1 (rather than 2) for question 6."

Help students to be more ambitious (and perhaps get higher marks!) by showing them the range of sentences they could write and the way they can extend their sentences using words like 'and', 'because' and 'but'.
For example:

The two women are laughing but they aren't clapping.

The two women are laughing because they're enjoying the circus.

The clown is wearing funny pink clothes and his black shoes are really big.
