At this key stage of a child’s development and language learning, focus on the four skills is imperative. With the inclusion of models to follow, children are supported 100% with emphasis on success and building confidence. With Trinity GESE and Cambridge Language Assessment in mind, children’s ability to communicate purposefully is at the forefront of this course. Communicative activities appear throughout each unit and give children ample opportunities to use the vocabulary and grammar along with various communicative strategies: social interaction, problem solving, game playing and interpretating information.
Grammar is treated as a key part of the course and is highlighted from the start. The focus is on production and fluency in order to promote communication. Children are given the opportunity to recycle and consolidate their knowledge of grammar at various points during the course. Vocabulary is introduced using a variety of age-appropriate and high-interest themes and topics that are developed throughout each unit.
The key vocabulary is present not only in the exercises, tasks, and activities where it is the main focus, but also integrated into grammar and skills practice. It is fundamental that English language learning is treated as an integral part of the curriculum. In order to give children a broader learning experience there is focus on CLIL and cultural connections. Young Achievers combines a variety of English language teaching approaches in order to give students a rounded learning experience.
