Levels: Starter (Pre-A1)
The fun, new three-level British English course with fully integrated DVD motivating pre-schoolers to learn through memorable stories and songs.
This great new series focuses on the real-life pre-school environment, a familiar setting for little ones to start learning English through other subjects.
Monkey (the puppet) starts every lesson in a fun way and the children’s enthusiasm for English builds from the beginning.
Through easy-to-follow classroom routines for each lesson children also learn to develop good habits and good behaviour.
Playtime’s lively stories present natural language in familiar contexts - using integrated DVD as well.
Key features:
-Playtime appeals to all styles of learning, embodied in the four playful, child characters – Rocket, Twig, Star and Melody.
-The teacher is provided with the widest variety of flexible components in a pre-school course, including DVDs
-Children are introduced to each story by a friendly monkey puppet who guides their repeated contact with the language through memorable songs, story songs, digital classroom resources and craft-based activities.
-The cross-curricular approach helps learners explore their first experience of English through other subjects and see English in a real-life British context through photographs and DVD
-Parents and learners are supported by a website with additional practice and content – building on a child’s learning in school at home
-There are over 60 core lessons for Levels A and B which can be boosted by an extra 30 lessons in the Work Book.
