Tab 2

We all know the earlier children learn a language the more likely they are to retain it. Little Friends is here to help. This fun, easy-to-teach course helps you to develop children’s language skills from a very early age and prepare them for the difficult tasks of reading, writing, and numeracy.

Little Friends offers you everything you need to give your students a solid foundation in literacy. Each step-by-step activity has clear instructions which help you to teach children pre-reading and pre-writing skills in a fun and supported way.

The Class Book has plenty of opportunities for young learners to do finger tracing activities and practise pencil control which ensures they develop their fine motor skills ready for future writing activities, like the ones in First Friends.

The specially designed phonics programme helps you to teach pre-reading skills. Fun phonics chants and melodies introduce children to the sounds of the English alphabet. The songs not only make the sounds easier to remember, but entertain children, helping them to develop a positive attitude towards learning English.

But that’s not all, fun numbers activities and songs introduce students to the numbers one to ten, and the friendly characters, songs, and stories teach children important values such as cooperation, respect for others, and good nutrition.

So with Little Friends not only do young learners develop language, literacy and numeracy skills but social skills as well.
