COMPLETE BEGINNER

Greenman & the Magic Forest is a three-level pre-primary course designed to teach English to children naturally through various adventures of two children, Nico and Sam, and their encounters with the magical protector of the forest, Greenman.

While keeping in mind the differing abilities at this age, Greenman & the Magic Forest is full of adventures stories, fun songs and chants on aspects of the holistic approach of the whole-child.

The Course is routine-based with seasons and nature centred.

In the book, stories are designed to combine the magic forest with the real situations that children can relate to. Through the stories the children will see the values of respect, companionship and the ability to solve the little problems which the course characters are faced with in their adventures.

Catchy and fun songs are used with TPR (Total Physical Response) activities.

Greenman & the Magic Forest has a phonics based syllabus which also focuses on all other skills.
