English for primary teachers : a handbook of activities and classroom language

Abstract

There are two units on using stories, with a final unit on integrating coursebook activities and lesson planning. The content of the syllabus is derived largely from English lessons recorded by around 20 different teachers in different countries, to show that the examples and expressions used are real ones that are used by primary teachers the world over. The language study syllabus is graded, beginning in Unit 1 with very basic classroom instructions within a typical lesson framework, going on to more specific language relevant to particular activity types, and later to longer stretches of English, such as storytelling.
