The  children and their alien friends visit Canada, where the aliens try to fish, swim and ski. The lessons include phonics, role plays, picture Bingo, and crossword puzzles.

This book in our Children’s ESL Curriculum continuous series has an interest level appropriate for children 12 years of age and younger who are learning to understand, speak, read and write English as a second language.

It is assumed that students have been introduced to the alphabet, beginning consonant sounds, and short vowel sounds. This book reviews sound symbol associations and short vowel sounds. It introduces a new vocabulary of about 145 words that is built upon the vocabulary in earlier books in the series.

Roleplays are an important part of this book. Pictures are provided throughout to facilitate understanding.

Reading skills are developed by providing word repetition, phonics and dialogues.

The crossword puzzles and word-find activities reinforce the material that has been introduced.

The basic teacher instructions are given in the small boxes on each page. It is important that the teacher repeat each question and guide the children’s sentence answers. In this way the children are learning basic sentence structure and grammar.

Teacher’s Guide
The colorful games provided in this Guide motivate learning. The children will always want to play again. The games also provide essential listening and speaking activities that build vocabulary and sentence structure. They are a very important part of the program.

Practice Book
This book provides independent work for the children. The students will need a brief explanation of what they are to do before starting the pages that accompany each lesson.

Each student travels with the storybook characters and a classroom or an imaginary friend. The activities include drawing, printing, reading, printing question answers and drawing their understanding of a situation. At this level sentence answers are shown in boxes. These provide the students with spelling, the correct verb tense needed to answer the questions and the word order of the sentences.
