A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Give learners page 1; use the suggested answers on page 2 after they have written and compared their own responses.
- Compare sentence-opening Also with final as well and the more conversational Plus.
- Write additions about the cafe, app, party needs, interview preparation and remaining contexts.
- Give an initial point and addition orally; ask whether the second detail really contributes something new.
Support and extension
Supply a first sentence when a prompt only asks for an extra point. Extend by adding two different benefits. Accept plausible alternatives; the sample's faster bus is an invented context, not a universal transport claim.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
