6 How to Use This Book
The Word Chest
introduces key vocabulary.
Look curiously at the pictures as if you are discovering them with the children. See if the children can help you by identifying any of the words, and then help them discover the words they do not know.
The students listen to the audio recording and number the pictures accordingly.
The recording presents the words in complete sentences.
The Listening Chest features the main characters.
The target language is used in a real-life situation.
The children first practice the dialogue orally with books closed, then listen to the dialogue, and finally open the books and read it.
The target language is highlighted in blue text.
The Language Chest introduces target patterns.
First practice these patterns orally with the books closed.
Then open the books and help the students discover what the children are saying.
The grammar boxes help both you and the students identify key grammatical points. It is important not to explain or analyze the grammar. Let the students acquire it through trial and error as they work through the unit.
The follow-up activity is a comprehension checking exercise. The format varies from unit to unit.
The Talk Chest presents the target language together with the key vocabulary. The students look at the picture and talk about it - such as by identifying the things and children in the picture. They then try to work out what the children are saying.
The Reading Chest recycles some of the key vocabulary and/or target patterns. The students try to read the text. They can also talk or write about themselves or the world around them using the patterns in the text.
The Guide focuses on key patterns. The children look at the guide and either use it to talk about themselves or pretend they are a puppet or toy animal and imagine what the puppet/animal would say.
The picture prompts focus on key patterns. The students first look at the picture and try to work out what to say. They then listen to the audio recording while looking at the pictures.
The Writing Chest is a simple writing activity that helps consolidate the target patterns.
The follow-up activity is a comprehension checking exercise. The format varies from unit to unit.
8 How to Use This Book
The Activity Chest a classroom game or board game. It is a fun way for the students to practice and consolidate the patterns and vocabulary introduced in the unit. The activities can be used in a variety of classrooms and do not require a lot of preparation.
The Song Chest is a song set to a familiar tune.
Ending a unit with a song is a great way to help students retain the unit language targets. We can introduce the song by playing the audio recording, getting the children to read the song before playing the recording, or simply by starting to sing it with the children.
A personalization activity accompanies the classroom games. This gives the children another opportunity to express themselves.
A special illustration accompanies each song.
This makes the song more interesting and memorable for the students.
Many of the songs can be altered to include the personal information of the students in the class.
The students can also listen to the song again at home or in the car with their parents.
