LETTER TO THE FAMILY


Dear Family,

Welcome to Guess What! Home Booklet, the games booklet for you and your child to
revise English in a fun way at home, and to show you what your child has learnt in class.
The booklet is organised into nine different topics.

We invite you to take part in your child’s experience of learning English. You don’t need
to have a good level of English to do this. It is your support and enthusiasm that will keep
your child motivated.

You can find this letter translated into different languages and the answer key to the
Guess What! Home Booklet here: www.cambridge.es/guesswhat

We hope you and your child have fun in English with Guess What! Home Booklet
