The themes and situations throughout the books are ‘universal to children everywhere Let's Go emphasizes communication within a carefully controlled grammatical syllabus, Beginning with the first lesson, students are provided with a variety of activities that focus on interactive communication. The activities gradually increase in difficulty. Students are regularly presented with new vocabulary and structures so that they have adequate language to communicate with at each new level. Students are encouraged to communicate with one another from the start, first in groups and then in pairs, after they have developed sufficient confidence and familiarity with the language. This pairwork is crucial, since itis here that students are really communicating with one another in situations most closely resembling, life outside the classroom. “The lessons in Lets Go incorporate techniques from several methods that have been repeatedly proven successful in teaching English to children, including: MAT (Model, Action, Talk) Method, TPR (otal Physical Response), Functional Approach, Communicative Approach, Audio-Lingual Approach, and Grammatical/Structural Approach. About the Series Both Let's Begin and Student Book 1 are entry points 10 Let’ Go, Let's Begin is for students with no formal English instruction. Student Book 1 is for students ‘who may have had an introduction to some simple English vocabulary and English letters. Subsequent levels build on and recycle language and vocabulary from previous levels. Organization of Let’s Go Level One Each of the eight units in Level 1 is organized around abasic theme and is divided into four lessons, with a review lesson after every two units. Each lesson builds on previously learned language and introduces new vocabulary and structures. Both review and new language are clearly identified in the Teacher's Book 4 Introduction lesson plans. The same titles and page numbers are used in the Workbook to help teachers and students ‘identify corresponding pages for homework and extra practice assignments Each lesson focuses on a specific purpose in language development: Let's Talk builds functional fluency through a conversation relating to the topic of the unit, followed by a song that practices the dialogue language. Students are giving the opportunity to personalize the language they have learned in Say and act. Let's Learn builds grammatical accuracy as students earn vocabulary relating to the unit theme, practice ‘using it in the context of a sentence in a scene, and ask questions or make statements about it. Let's Learn More expands on the language introduced {in Let's Learn by introducing additional thematic vocabulary, practice in the context of a scene, and additional practice in a game format. Students then learn functional classroom language in Listen and do. Let's Read uses phonics to teach children phonemic awareness and how to read language they may have learned orally. Listen and Review provides a one-page listening assessment and a game to recycle language and vocabulary from the previous two units. Lesson Planning Guidelines AA lesson plan should be developed for every lesson taught, with specific goals and objectives. It is always better to over-plan and have more activities than you need, as the same activity will not always work equally ‘well with all groups of students, and unexpected situations call for flexibility in class. Use various types of activities to appeal to the different learning styles of your students Every lesson activity, drill, or game in the Lets Go “Teacher's Book has 2 purpose in advancing language proficiency. For example, the Warm Up activity at the beginning of each lesson serves two purposes—it helps activate students’ English when coming from a non- English environment (eg. after school), and it eviews previously learned language that will be built on in the lesson ‘The Teacher's Book pages for each lesson contain suggested activities, explanations of potential problem areas, and tips for teaching each specific language point. Activities can be replaced with others from appropriate sections to suit the needs of your class. Generally, students keep their books closed during the presentation of new language so they can focus on hearing and understanding the language before having to see it on a page. After the closed-book presentation, students open their books and listen to the audio and do the exercises for that lesson. Finally, students close their books to focus on communicating with their classmates during the suggested games and activities Time Guidelines In general, after presenting the new language, the majority of class time should be spent on practicing it in groups and in pairs. Approximately 10% of your time should be spent on Warm up activities, 30-40% of your time on presenting the language with books closed, 20% practicing the language with books open, and another 30-40% on practicing the language with games and activities. Phonics ee SSSSSSSFFSseeme Pacing The pacing of a language class for children must be lively. To maintain the students’ interest, activities should be changed approximately every five to seven minutes, or whenever the students’ interest starts to ‘wane, Its much better to stop an activity while the children are still involved in it than to wait until they are no longer interested. Favorite activities can always be used again later. This also holds true for drills and practices, which should be done at a challenging pace to establish natural English rhythm and intonation, Introduction 5 Components TEACHER CARDS) 6 Components Student Book ‘+ Fight units with four lessons per unit ‘+ Four review units (one for every ‘two units) * Full-color illustrations and photos in a clear, engaging format + Can be used as a reference as students, {interact with each other ‘+ Songs and chants provide lively language learning + A Student Audio CD for practice and review Student Audio CD ‘+ Audio tracks for at-home review ‘= Conversations, vocabulary, songs, phonics chants, and stories for practice at home Workbook + Pages match the Student Book Reading and writing practice provide language reinforcement ‘© Activities are designed for use in class or as homework Teacher Cards ‘Large portrait size * Pictures and vocabulary words and phrases on the same side for literacy learning ‘= Useful for playing group games, and for presenting vocabulary ‘+ Integrated into Teacher's Book lesson plans Student Cards * Playing-card size cards to use for games, drills, and practice at home ‘+ Perfect for small hands ‘+ Integrated into Teacher's Book lesson plans Class Audio CDs ‘+ Contain the complete audio track for the Student Book + Include vocabulary substitutions with drum tracks, stories songs. and chants Oxford » making sense Teacher's Book © Introduction: * A doseription of the course and its teaching methodology * Tips for teaching difforent aspects of the lessons ‘+ Descriptions of gemes and drills tusod in the lesson plans © Lesson Plans: ‘+ Easy-to-follow activities to present, practice, and reinforce new language ‘+ Suggestions for class, small-group, or pair arrangements ‘+ Audioscript for language and conversations on ‘Audio CDs at pointof-use ‘Ideas for games and activities in every lesson ‘References for extra practice © Also included in the Teacher's Book: + Worksheets and Tests - + Workbook answer keys * Teacher Card List and Word List Test Center CD-ROM included in the Teacher's Book + Placement tests * Printer-ready and editable unit, midterm, and final tests * Cambridge Young Learners Practice Tests + Test audio Online Practice ‘Access codes included with the Teacher's Book and the Workbook with Online Practice ‘+ Interactive activities for every lesson +, Automatic scoring and gradebook ‘+ wwwelgonlinepracticecom iTools * Classroom presentation software suitable for use with interactive whiteboard or data projector/computer * Teacher can project Student Rook and Workhonle pages, show Teacher Cards, and. play audio files *+ Includes interactive activities with every lesson to use in class ‘Components 7 Unit Walk-Through Let’s Talk Mascots Sam and. ‘Song or chant Ginger introduce Let's Talk with 2 speech balloon.

Praise students for their accomplishments! Teaching Techniques Teaching Conversation In teaching conversation, the goal is for students first to become fluent using language, and then to focus on becoming accurate with it. Let's Talk introduces useful phrases (greetings, introductions, asking for and giving help, etc) in functional conversations Firs, students listen to the entire conversation, which {introduces the language in context. Then they focus on the functional language in the language focus box. ‘Students learn the intonation and rhythm of the language ima song or chant. This is the easiest way for children to remember the language as well. (See the ‘How to use songs and chants to reinforce grammar’ section for ‘more information on teaching songs and chants) Finally, students personalize the language in Say and act. Teaching Vocabulary Use actual objects or Teacher Cards to present new key words. Hold up an object or picture card and say ‘the word, Have the students repeat the word several times. Then practice the word with drills, using familiar language whenever possible. ‘The Teacher's Book describes a number of drills and activities designed to develop and reinforce the students’ vocabulary knowledge. There are two types of vocabulary or language that all language learners develop—receptive language and productive language. Receptive language is the language students understand but are not necessarily able to produce yet. When you speak to the students in English, itis inevitable that you will sometimes use language that they have not yet studied. This is not a problem and is even desirable since it exposes the students to additional language. They will gradually pick up the meaning from the context if the language is used often enough. For example, if you ‘write the number 1 on the board and tell the students to ‘open their books and look at page 1, receptive language is being developed; they have not yet learned the number or the command, but will pick up the meaning from your actions. To practice receptive language, students must recognize and physically respond to vocabulary words. For example, place the Teacher Cards for book and pencil on the chalk or marker rail. Say book and have one or more students point to the book card. Or place several Teacher Cards on tho chalk rail and select rwo students to come to the front of the class. Say one of the vocabulary words and have the students race to touch the correct card. Whoever touches the card first is the winner. Productive language is the language spoken by students, Productive language practice requires students to say the vocabulary words as they identify the objects. Play the games as described above, but have the students touch the correct cards and orally identify the objects. After being initially modeled or done as a whole class, all the games for receptive and productive language can be continued in small groups of three or four students each, Small-group practice is especially important for large classes. When the students are first learning new vocabulary, use one set of Student Cards per group. Call out the words and have the students, one ata time, touch the correct picture card. If a student is incorrect, the other students in the group can help. Teaching Grammar In Let's Go, grammar is taught in context so that students, understand the meaning and conversational purpose from the start. Students first learn new vocabulary ‘words that relate to the unit theme. Next, students see and practice the language in a mini-conversation context. Then they get additional practice with the question and answer structures in a game, activity, song, or chant. Students should understand that vocabulary and grammar patterns are productive, build on each. other, and can be used with other patterns, so recycling of language occurs in the units In teaching grammar, the goal is for students first to learn language accurately. and then focus on becoming fluent in using it. While language is always taught in context, the language patterns can be recycled in various additional contexts. For the most efficient use of class time, teach vocabulary first. Then introduce a new sentence pattern and recycle the vocabulary words as students practice the sentence. Since there are 6-8 new vocabulary items, teaching them first gives students a lot of practice with the vocabulary. Then when you introduce a Wh- question, students already know the answer to the question (the sentence pattern becomes the answer). In this way, students can accurately build a great deal of language in small steps, and they won't confuse the question with the answer, as they can if the two are taught together. Teaching Techniques 3 Teaching Techniques (ninestromp.13) Be sure that students understand the meaning of the new language and can pronounce the words clearly before moving on to practice. That way you won't have to re-teach the language every time you use it in class. Correct pronunciation is introduced during the modeling by the teacher so that the students can strive for accurate pronunciation as they are learning the meaning of the new vocabulary. ‘When teaching Yes/No question and answer patterns, have children answer with answers that include the auxiliary verb from the question (Do you like cats? Yes, Ida, No, I don't) Not only does this help students remember the questions and answers grouped in a memory set. it also builds a grammar foundation that will help them learn to write English more easily. Separate the Yes and No answers in practice at first so that students don’t confuse the meaning. Then, mix Yes and No answers. (Tip: you can use upside down Teacher Cards to cue No answers in a quick drill) Recycling Language All language builds from a base sentence. For example from the sentence "He likes cats’, students can build the questions "What does he like?” and "Does he like cats?" In the early levels of Let's Go, these patterns (sentence, Wh. question, Yes/No question) are explicitly taught. However, later lessons and levels might only teach the sentence and Wh- question, or both questions but not the sentence. Teachers should remind students that they know how to build language even if itis not explicitly taught in every lesson, In the same way, once students have learned how verbs change with different pronouns, or how nouns change to become plural, they should be encouraged to practice the different forms, even if not specifically taught in a lesson. For example, if the lesson focus is “He likes cats,” then students should also be able +o say “I like cats” or if the lesson Is “He has a book” then students should also be able to say “They have books” Teaching Contractions Learning how to use contractions like isn’t and I'm {in conversation helps students to sound more fluent and to better understand natural English, and gives ‘them an advantage when they begin to read and write Contractions are explicitly taught the first time they appear in Lets Go and should be reviewed, as needed, in the later lessons. Use the contraction cards on page 14 Teaching Techniques 158 to show students that contracted and non-contracted Janguage (like I'm and I am) are equivalent. You can use the cards to review contractions, as necessary, after they have been taught. How to Practice Language in Groups and Pairs Start with full class practice so that students don’t feel shy or embarrassed. Be sure that you have students practice the language using natural speed, rhythm and intonation since this makes it easier to build fluency ‘with the language later. Then, divide the class into two groups. One group asks the questions and the other answers. Even in a practice like this, try to give students a reason for asking and answering the questions. For example, if you're practicing the question “What do you like?", only show the Teacher Cards of animals to the answering group. This way, the questioning group has a real reason to ask because they don’t know what the answer will be. Then group students in pairs or small groups for additional practice with the question and answer. By moving from the large group to the small, students build confidence by practicing before their voices become individually heard. As students work in pair or small ‘group practice, move around the room so that you can hear what problems students are still having, and can address the problems with a mini-lesson later on for the entire class (rather than correcting just one student having trouble). Variety in grouping and activities, such, as Conversation Lines, Beanbag Circle, or Back- to-Back activities, also gives students a lot of practice opportunities that don't feel like practice. If the pace is quick, and activities change frequently, students will pay close attention. In addition, students will be doing most of the speaking in class—not the teacher. How to use Songs and Chants ‘Adding rhythm to language is one of the easiest and ‘most effective ways for students to learn and remember it. The songs and chants in Let's Go reinforce the natural rhythm, stress, and intonation of the language taught. To introduce a new song, teach it as a chant first. Begin a steady 4/4 beat by having students clap their hands, tap their fingers, march, or or tap their toes. Say the lines from the song, as you clap the beat.

The winner turns over a card and makes a sentence using the item shown. like pizza. I want chicken. Here you are. Thank you. You're welcome. + Role Play. Students pretend to be on a picnic. In pairs or small groups, students talk about foods they like and want. Place food cards from Let’s Go 1 or teacher-made food picture cards face up in the center of the group. Students take turns making statements about the items. If S1 says I like pizza. S2 agrees or disagrees. (I do, too! I don’t) If St says want pizza S2 picks up that card and hands it to S1, (Here you are. Thank you. You're welcome) + Board Race.

Place Student Cards (or teacher- made cards) for singular and plural objects face down on a table. Separate the cards so that students turn over one singular and one plural card each turn. As students turn over the cards, looking for a singular/plural match, they make sentences about the objects shown. (This is a per. These are pens) * Divide the class into teams. Place singular and plural vocabulary cards in random order in a row on the table. Students from each team take turns pointing to each card and making a sentence. (This 4s a pencil.
