New to English - Activities

New to English offers a wide range of activities for English language learning. With a user-friendly interface, children independently navigate through the activities, building confidence as they work at their own pace. The activities are also very effective when used with a group of children to encourage social interaction.

Each CD includes all of the following activities:

Explore				Find it

This activity introduces the learner to the new vocabulary of the area they are in. When a hot-spot on the picture is clicked, the name of the object is spoken and a close up of the object and its name are shown.				This activity focuses on listening skills. Pupils listen carefully and find each picture in turn. This builds their familiarity with the objects and language.
Listen and say				Look and match

This activity focuses on listening and speaking skills. Pupils look, listen and say - they record as many times as they like, using the Clicker pop-up sound recorder.				In this activity pupils are introduced to reading words they have met. Pupils match pictures and words, and they then go on to record themselves reading each word.
Label				Yes or no?

In this activity pupils are introduced to the first steps of writing the words they have met. Pupils use pop-up grids to label the picture.				In this activity children are introduced to simple sentence structures. Pupils respond to the question "Is this a...?" with a simple 'yes' or 'no'.
What is it?

In this activity pupils use their new words in sentences. Children record answers to questions and then write an answer using a linked Clicker Grid.
