Производитель: "Cengage Learning" Say Hello Level 2 is the second level in a new two-level Kindergarten English course for four- to five-year-olds. The course is written by Judy West, who has extensive experience in both teaching and writing materials for young learners. Say Hello Level 2 is based around two engaging characters Tom and Polly together with their friends Ben the Bear and Mimi the Monkey. At the heart of the methodology lies an emphasis on child-centred activities, and the puppet of Ben the Bear plays a key part in these. Learning is introduced through a range of short and lively activities, these include listening and speaking, listening and pointing, singing and chanting, and playing games involving simple responses in English. The songs, chants and games that feature throughout the course provide opportunities for repetition, enable pupils to try out the language in a fun and secure way, and encourage interaction and movement. Each unit also offers opportunities for colouring, tracing and a craft activity, encouraging participation and manual dexterity. In Level 2 the alphabet A-Z and the numbers 1-20 are introduced throughout, while vocabulary learning is aided by a picture dictionary and board games. Say Hello Level 2 Teacher`s Book offers a comprehensive guide to teaching the course and provides excellent support for less experienced teachers of English. There are detailed lesson by lesson guides including lesson aims, warm ups, games, extension ideas, home activity suggestions and teaching tips. The Teacher`s Book is also packaged with the Multi-ROM of Audio materials and Interactive Whiteboard software including animated versions of songs and a variety of interactive activities to reinforce and extend learning in a fun way.
