How to use it
Print pages 1–5 for learners and keep page 6 for the teacher notes and answer key. Start with the photos and model the change from A worker checks the part to The part is checked. In pairs, learners fold page 4 to keep their Student A and B information private. Finish with a short workplace tour and set the homework on page 5.
