About Cambridge
English: Movers
There are three levels of test:
• Cambridge English: Starters
• Cambridge English: Movers
• Cambridge English: Flyers.
Cambridge English: Movers is a
great way to help children build
on their language skills and make
further progress in English.
For more information about Cambridge English: Young Learners please
visit: www.cambridgeenglish.org/younglearners
Cambridge English: Young Learners is a series of fun, motivating English language tests for
children in primary and lower secondary education. The tests are an excellent way for
children to gain confidence and improve their English.
The full Cambridge English: Movers Word List is at the end of this book.
• Talk about the pictures
If you are a parent or a teacher, find time to sit with your children and look at the book.
Talk together about what you see. The ‘Let’s talk!’ questions on the picture pages give
ideas of what you can talk about. Try and help your children to move from one-word
answers to longer answers.
• Find words in the pictures
There is lots of action in the pictures. Ask your children to talk about what they see. Can
they tell stories about the people in the pictures? They can then begin to use the words
for a real purpose.
See if the children want to test your English too! What can they ask you to find in
the pictures?

eating the pirate’s beard. “Get off!” shouts

this party?

hair is crying?
• When you are thirsty, what do you like
to drink?
• What is the best present you have

The party
The band at this party are playing very
loudly. The happy pair are having the first
dance. There’s plenty of food and drink for
everyone. Some people are sitting quietly,
doing nothing. The Movers are having fun
and making lots of noise. Look for them under
the table, upstairs and downstairs. Let’s hope
they will be careful and not fall! There are so
many things to do at a party!

looking surprised?

At the doctor’s
The doctor is very busy today. Some of the
Movers look terrible. The doctor has got to
help with a bad cough, a cold, a stomach-
ache, a headache, an earache, a bad back and
a hurt shoulder. He isn’t sure who he should
see first. He wishes everyone would stop
shouting! The nurse will help – after she’s
finished drinking her cup of tea!

Our town
The Movers go into the busy town centre.
The market arrived yesterday and will stay
until tomorrow. It’s a great place to buy some
fresh vegetables for a healthy salad. Opposite
the market there is a bank. If you go out of the
town square you will find ice creams near the
library. There’s always lots to see and do in
town. It’s never boring.
