MY FIRST ENGLISH BOOK
Notes for teachers
This book is primarily intended for use with pupils in pre-school, junior and senior infants.
All vocabulary used in the book is based on the thematic requirements of the primary curriculum.
The activities are based on developing oracy through ‘point and say’, talking about different topics, talking and colouring, and basic numeracy. There are a few activities which may be used for early writing.
The instructions and prompts are intended to be used by teachers as it is not expected that young children will be able to read them with ease.
The ladders, which provide a summary of the pupil’s English language development, should be mediated by the teacher. In addition to providing motivation to the child, these ladders may be used to show colleagues or parents how the child’s English language proficiency is developing
When a child has completed the flower petals on page 3, which represent the range of themes in the book, the certificate at the back of the book should be filled in by the teacher
