Welcome to
My Disney Stars and Heroes!
My Disney Stars and Heroes is a primary course for children aged 6 to 12 that brings together the
engagement of Disney stories, a focus on Future Skills, the Global Scale of English, and classroom tools
that make teaching easy.
We have based the course on the following principles:
Engaged children will learn better.
Future Skills are key to children’s development.
Students and teachers need to see pedagogical rigor and progress.
Teachers need flexibility.

Engaged children will learn better

Working with Disney, we have created a course that will engage Each unit of the course has two stories at its core:

Teaching with the videos
Video is a great tool for conveying information to young learners. A combination of images, movement, colors, sounds, music, and
language supports learning at all levels. At the same time, video provides an effective vehicle through which to explore Personal and
Social Skills. My Disney Stars and Heroes offers two Disney video stories per unit at Levels Starter to 2.
Lesson 1 video story When to use the videos

• To present new material. Students will not understand the entire

text presented in the recording, but they will get the meaning
of the pictures, sounds, and the rhythm of the spoken language.
They will remember some phrases, especially those that are
often repeated.
• To review the material. Children have good short-term
memories, but watching the same episodes again two months
after new material was introduced will considerably stimulate
their memorizing ability.
• To consolidate the covered material. The recordings include
vocabulary and grammar structures introduced previously and
practiced during lessons with the Student’s Book.

Video activities
• Ask students to guess which items of vocabulary are in the
videos. Place the corresponding picture cards on the board,
then watch together to see if they were correct. Alternatively,

Teaching with stories and story cards
Stories are an essential part of language learning because they allow students to absorb information in a fun and stimulating way. Using
stories in the classroom greatly enhances students’ motivation, and encourages less confident students to contribute their ideas and
opinions because they are not confined to the limits of a certain structure. Stories provide larger chunks of language in context as well as
an opportunity for students to produce language, while also providing a springboard for the Personal and Social Skills focus.
Below is a four-stage method for using stories in the classroom that starts with anticipation and ends with language production.
Stage 1
• Students draw or describe their favorite character.

Teaching with songs and chants
Songs are immediately familiar to young learners, and provide a supportive and fun way of assimilating new language. They naturally
include repetition and aid retention of vocabulary and structures through their use of rhythm. Students will be motivated to participate
in singing or chanting and miming the actions, in turn promoting exposure to English in an active and enjoyable way.

Teaching the Personal and Social Skills
Personal and Social Skills are the transversal skills that go beyond the classroom and are crucial for personal development, active
citizenship, and future success. The Myself and others lesson in each unit focuses on a specific area under one of the following five
overarching areas that comprise the My Disney Stars and Heroes syllabus:
Self-awareness Social awareness Relationship skills Self-management Responsible decision-making

Teaching with projects
Projects have been specially designed in steps to support all learners, challenging more confident students to stretch themselves, while
aiding less confident students in achieving the writing and speaking outcomes.
Every project is designed for students to:
• use their creativity through thinking, designing, and producing • communicate with other students
an output • develop Future Skills, specifically in the areas of presentation
• apply the language and knowledge from the unit and self-management in Levels 1 and 2

Welcome to
My Disney Stars and Heroes!
My Disney Stars and Heroes is a primary course for children aged 6 to 12 that brings together the
engagement of Disney stories, a focus on Future Skills, the Global Scale of English, and classroom tools
that make teaching easy.
We have based the course on the following principles:
Engaged children will learn better.
Future Skills are key to children’s development.
Students and teachers need to see pedagogical rigor and progress.
Teachers need flexibility.

Engaged children will learn better

with the dedicated Myself and others lesson in each unit focusing on one skill area within each of the five umbrella competences.

Teaching with the videos
Video is a great tool for conveying information to young learners. A combination of images, movement, colors, sounds, music, and
language supports learning at all levels. At the same time, video provides an effective vehicle through which to explore Personal and
Social Skills. My Disney Stars and Heroes offers two Disney video stories per unit at Levels Starter to 2.
Lesson 1 video story When to use the videos

eo stor
• To present new material. Students will not understand the entire

text presented in the recording, but they will get the meaning
of the pictures, sounds, and the rhythm of the spoken language.
They will remember some phrases, especially those that are
often repeated.
• To review the material. Children have good short-term
memories, but watching the same episodes again two months
after new material was introduced will considerably stimulate
their memorizing ability.
• To consolidate the covered material. The recordings include
vocabulary and grammar structures introduced previously and
practiced during lessons with the Student’s Book.

Video activities
• Ask students to guess which items of vocabulary are in the
videos. Place the corresponding picture cards on the board,
then watch together to see if they were correct. Alternatively,

explore different situations, events, and reactions with them. More detailed questions focus on specifics of the
story (characters, events) to check comprehension.

Teaching with stories and story cards
Stories are an essential part of language learning because they allow students to absorb information in a fun and stimulating way. Using
stories in the classroom greatly enhances students’ motivation, and encourages less confident students to contribute their ideas and
opinions because they are not confined to the limits of a certain structure. Stories provide larger chunks of language in context as well as
an opportunity for students to produce language, while also providing a springboard for the Personal and Social Skills focus.
Below is a four-stage method for using stories in the classroom that starts with anticipation and ends with language production.
Stage 1

Teaching with songs and chants
Songs are immediately familiar to young learners, and provide a supportive and fun way of assimilating new language. They naturally
include repetition and aid retention of vocabulary and structures through their use of rhythm. Students will be motivated to participate
in singing or chanting and miming the actions, in turn promoting exposure to English in an active and enjoyable way.

Teaching the Personal and Social Skills
Personal and Social Skills are the transversal skills that go beyond the classroom and are crucial for personal development, active
citizenship, and future success. The Myself and others lesson in each unit focuses on a specific area under one of the following five
overarching areas that comprise the My Disney Stars and Heroes syllabus:
Self-awareness Social awareness Relationship skills Self-management Responsible decision-making

Teaching with projects
Projects have been specially designed in steps to support all learners, challenging more confident students to stretch themselves, while
aiding less confident students in achieving the writing and speaking outcomes.
Every project is designed for students to:
• use their creativity through thinking, designing, and producing • communicate with other students
an output • develop Future Skills, specifically in the areas of presentation
• apply the language and knowledge from the unit and self-management in Levels 1 and 2

Project benefits
More than just a great way for students to learn, practice, and Tip 4 Make space for reflection Provide opportunities for
review their language skills, working with projects also provides the student reflection, both for the project process and for the
following benefits: final product. Ask students to think about what they might do

Inside Out tells the story of Riley Andersen, a happy, hockey-loving 11-year-old girl from Minnesota. Riley’s
life suddenly changes when she moves with her family from Minnesota to San Francisco. Riley misses her
old life and her best friend, Meg. She becomes sad and loses her confidence. Riley is guided by her internal
emotions: Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust. The emotions live in Headquarters, the control center
inside Riley’s mind. Although Joy, Riley’s main and most important emotion, tries to keep things positive,
the emotions disagree about how best to navigate a new city, house, and school.

Understand In activity 2, students remember what they have learned about
a family tree in activity 1, and show their understanding by sequencing words
according to stage of life, from young to old.
Analyze/Apply In activity 3, students analyze a photo of a family to determine
which family members there are, using the information they have learned in
activity 1. Then they apply already known vocabulary, e.g., mom, dad, to the
new vocabulary, e.g., parents.
Evaluate Using L1, you can extend HOTS by asking students to evaluate
how many grandparents a child has (four), how many parents a child has (two),
and how many siblings a child has (can be any number). Allow for diversity in
students’ answers, to allow for step-parents, etc.

Bolt is a dog who stars in a hit TV show with his owner, Penny. In the show, Bolt’s character has
superpowers, which he uses to fight off evil villains and to protect Penny. During one episode, Bolt believes
that Penny has been kidnapped and, thinking his superpowers are real, he sets off to rescue her. Bolt soon
finds himself in the real world, where he befriends Mittens, a grumpy cat, and Rhino, an excitable hamster.
During their cross-country adventure to find Penny, Bolt gradually realizes that his superpowers are not
real and that he’s just an ordinary dog. He also learns that he doesn’t need his superpowers to be a hero!

A sheriff doll and one
of Andy’s favorite toys.

Jesse
A cowgirl doll who
has lots of energy.

Buzz
A space-ranger toy who
is Woody’s best friend.

Andy, now 17 years old, is preparing to go to college and has to say goodbye to his favorite childhood toys
– Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and the others. However, instead of being put into the attic, the toys accidentally
end up in a daycare center called Sunnyside. Woody escapes and is found by a young girl named Bonnie, who
takes him home with her. At Bonnie’s house, Woody learns about bad things that happen at Sunnyside, and
about Lotso, the evil teddy bear who runs the center. Woody returns to Sunnyside to rescue his friends,
and during their amazing escape he realizes just how important they are to him.

Social and emotional learning Providing lots of encouragement, feedback,
and praise in these lessons will help students feel more confident and secure in
talking about their feelings. Say: Good job! I’m proud of you. You can talk about
your feelings. You can say how to calm down. If students find it difficult to express
their feelings, reassure them by saying: It’s OK. Don’t worry.

3 Check (✔). What can you do next time you need to calm down?
• Students look at the pictures and check what they do when they need to calm down.
• Students work in pairs to compare their answers, then check all together as a class.
Encourage students to mime or say their answers, prompting as necessary (I take a
breath. I listen to music. I talk to my friend. I hug my mom. I play.).
• Students think of other things they do to calm down when they’re angry, e.g.,
play with a favorite toy or a pet, go for a walk, do something creative (painting/
drawing), read a book, watch a movie. Invite them to mime and share their ideas
with the class.

Growth mindset Working collaboratively enables students to learn
from their peers and take inspiration from others’ success. However,
students also need some time to work quietly on their own. In this review
lesson, give students the opportunity to do each activity quietly on their
own first, so that each student can show what they have learned. Say:

Make the Mickey Mouse puppet “serve” an instruction to an individual
student, e.g., Talk! The student does the action and “returns” the opposite
instruction (Don’t talk!) Students play the game with Mickey, then in pairs
or in teams. Alternatively, this game can be done with “serving” a verb
and asking the student to “return” by saying a suitable noun.
Throw the ball
Students sit or stand in a circle. Make a paper ball (or use a soft ball
or beanbag), then call out a category, e.g., family, or start a sentence,
e.g., I see with … . Make the Mickey Mouse puppet throw the ball to a
student, and ask them to say a word belonging to the chosen category
(mom), or complete the sentence, (my eyes). Ask that student to throw
the ball to another student, and continue the game.

Classroom language

Using English for classroom routines is an effective way to expose students to natural language. As you set up activities, give instructions,
play games, and give support and encouragement, students will acquire this language receptively and in turn be able to produce the
phrases themselves.
