Pockets
Pockets is a new three-level English course for preschool students.
It develops English language and psychomotor/conceptual skills through hands-on,
fun activities, and equips children for continued success in learning English.
Appealing animal mascots, dynamic songs and chants, stickers, home/school
activities, and videos motivate students and help them build confidence
in communicating in English.
Pockets' spiraled themes
grow with the developing child, drawing on the child's growing knowledge
of the world.
- Children
confidently learn English through conversations, songs
and chants, punch-out or cut-out activities, stickers,
and videos. Key and expansion vocabulary items are recycled in
a picture dictionary.

five-step pedagogy (Warm Up, Presentation, Practice, Application,
and Assessment) provides a proven and reliable foundation for learning

their late preschool and early primary studies.
