Your class is working on a weekly school social media post devoted to Family Day on the 8th of July. Your teacher has asked you to identify the format of this text which can be used for the post later. Read the text and choose the correct format for this text. Family ties are important. Customs and family honour should be respected to maintain a good reputation within the community. Family relationships can be complex with different types of family members such as seniors, stepfathers, stepmothers, nephews, brothers-in-law, great-grandfathers, twin sisters, etc. In many cultures, elders hold authority for making decisions that affect the entire family. Sometimes this extends beyond immediate family members to include distant relatives. Seniors may need assistance with daily tasks or medical care. It is essential to keep strong family ties. Visiting relatives and keeping in touch regularly strengthens these bonds. Walking together and participating in family activities create lasting memories. However, family relationships can also be challenging at times. It is important to communicate openly and respectfully. Respecting each other's boundaries can avoid unnecessary tension within the family. In conclusion, family ties should be cherished and respected. By maintaining strong relationships with family members, we pass on customs and traditions to future generations and create a sense of belonging.

Your teacher has asked you to create a survey for Family Day on the 8th of July. You have interviewed your classmates about their relationships. Read what one of your classmates says and choose 1 “social circle” diagram that matches her story. Katie: The people closest to me are my mum and dad. Then there are my two best friends, Anna and Laura, and my cousin Tom. Tom and I go to the same school. He enjoys doing the same things as me, and we like the same type of music. Another person who is important to me, but isn't family or a friend, is Mrs. Saunders. Mrs. Saunders owns the shoe shop where I work on Saturday mornings, and at the moment she's quite important in my life because without the money from the job, I wouldn't be able to pay for the concerts that I go to with Tom!

Read the information on the posters. Imagine you and your family are choosing the best place to spend a family day together. Your sister likes outdoor activities in summer but she doesn’t like when her clothes get wet while playing. Choose one event that your sister will definitely like.

Imagine you want to go to Zaryadye Park with your family. Study the prices on the website and calculate how much it will cost for your family which includes: you (a school student), your teen sister, your cousin (an undergraduate) and your mum. Write the total cost in numerals.

Imagine you and your family have decided to attend an event “Soaring Moscow” at Zaryadye park on the 8th of July (Family Day). Read the information on the website and decide who is eligible for taking part in the event. Arrange the options into two categories.

You and your family are organising an event. As a family group conversation admin in the messenger you should choose 11 hashtags for the post. Read an invitation to the event and choose the words for the hashtags. The hashtags should only include an adjective and a noun/nouns following it with no spaces or punctuation. For example, warmwishes, heartygreeting. Hi everyone! I'm excited to share some wonderful news with you all. My family is hosting a special event next weekend, and we would love you to join us. We're planning a friendly gathering at our home. It's going to be a day full of fun, unconditional laughter, and delicious food. Our family has always been known for our heartwarming events. This one will be no different. We have some creative games and engaging activities lined up for both kids and adults. My aunt, who is a renowned cook, will be preparing her famous dishes. Trust me, you don't want to miss out on that! So mark your calendars for Saturday. We can't wait to see you and spend some quality time together. Love, Anna

Your class is working on a weekly school social media post devoted to Family Day on the 8th of July. You and your friend need to post the stories about your classmates' relatives. Your friend has noted down some of your classmates' stories but now the notes seem to be mixed up. Read the notes and put the sentences into the correct groups. Ben: The two people that I'm closest to are my mum and my sister, Emma. There's only a year between Emma and me, and we get on really well even though we don't really have a lot in common. I tend to go to her for advice and I often confide in her. Then there's my best friend Callum. We're in the same class at school, and we also play in the same football team at the weekends — actually, he is probably the person I see the most! I also see my cousin, Harry, quite often. Finally, there's Tom Fisher, our football coach. He's really hard on us, and we're not always sure of what his mood is going to be, but he's a great coach. We wouldn't be top of the league without him! Mark: Apart from Mum and Dad, I'm also really close to my auntie, Julia. She's much younger than my mum, and she's more like a sister to me than an aunt. She's so outgoing and I really admire her. And obviously I'm really close to my identical twin brother, James, despite the fact that we spend a lot of time arguing! Outside my family and friends, there are two other people that are quite important in my life. The first is my maths teacher, Mr. O'Neil. I always used to hate maths, but this year I've started to understand it much better because of him. Then there's my judo teacher. He's great fun, and thanks to him, I'm about to get my black belt! Amy: Well, I suppose like the majority of people, I'm closest to my immediate family. There's my mum and dad, and my brother and sister, Nathan and Molly. My granny, Alice, has lived with us since my grandad died, and we all love her a lot! Despite the age difference, we really understand each other well. We've got the same terrible sense of humour! Other people that are important to me are my cousin Leah and my best friend, Lily. I always have a good time with them when we meet up! And finally, I've got to mention my tutor from school, Mrs. White. Everybody thinks she's a great teacher, but I really respect her because she's so patient with everybody, and she's always positive about life!

Imagine that your school is organizing “Role Reversal Day" when students have a chance to become teachers for a day. You are going to teach English and your teacher has asked you to plan lead-in activities based on three stories. Read the stories and choose all the lead-in activities that are related to them. The activities should cover the information in all stories. Ben: The two people that I'm closest to are my mum and my sister, Emma.
