              language, and speaking activities give students the
            
            
              opportunity to personalise language in meaningful

              If you want to take your students a little bit further
            
            
              in levels 1 and 2, try the optional synthetic phonics
            
            
              programme. The Phonics Pack includes a user’s guide,
            
            
              two wall posters and an innovative DVD-ROM with
            
            
              customisable print and presentation options. Its focus
            
            
              on authentic English sounds, improves pronunciation
            
            
              and accelerates literacy.

              ‘I really appreciate the new method.
            
            
              Lots of materials and very attractive.
            
            
              Interactive board activities are what my
            
            
              pupils enjoy best and also the songs,
            
            
              I really like when they sing.’
