The unit integrates listening, reading, speaking and writing skills, starting with unseen listening tasks and short reading texts. Grammar points include the verb 'to be' with 'he/she/they,' possessive adjectives 'his' and 'her,' and review of 'my' and 'your.' Vocabulary includes common cities and countries. Emphasis is placed on pronunciation and common errors, particularly with 'he/she/his/her' and distinguishing 'teen' numbers from 'ten' numbers.
