- Abstract
- PURPOSE: The main purpose of this textbook is to make an active and fun class while learning English and to maximize learners’ participation and language learning.
RATIONALE
Motivation: Various methods and learning resources such as songs, arts, and various physical activities will stimulate young learner’s motivation and it will promote learner’s initiative in language learning.
Literature: Children’s literature offers various language elements such as vocabulary and grammars. Reading the story also leads to learners’ practice of useful reading strategies. Reading stories will significantly improve the young learner’s overall language ability.
