4. Class Dossier
The class dossier is the document made up of all the exercises done in class
and at home, the writings, photocopies, worksheets and handouts.
It must be handed in at the end of each unit on the day of the exam. You must
bring it to class ready to be handed in. In case you forget it at home, you
must bring it to school the following day but you may get a lower mark.
The dossier is part of the term assessment so you'd better spend some time
to prepare it beforehand. So...
Don't assemble your dossier just before handing it in.
Follow the instructions on how to make a clean, organised dossier
(remember that it has to be a useful tool for you to study before the exam)

5. How to make your class dossier
The cover
• Numbers and titles of the units
• A picture/drawing related to
the topics of the units.
• Name of the subject
• Your name and surname
• Your group
• The school year
Index:
• Make a list of all the different
contents in the dossier and add the
number of the page
SO...
Remember to number the pages once
you have organised your dossier
Useful tips to make your dossier look GREAT!
• Each section (vocabulary, reading, grammar, listening, speaking, writing) must be
clearly seen. Use different colours and typographies to make it more attractive (try
to avoid pencil)
• Good handwriting and the use of margins is essential.
• Exercises must be corrected.
• You can use staples or a document holder to present it (NO plastic bags, please!)
• Be original and creative!
