Each book in the DK Readers series is specially crafted to suit the interests and learning stages of beginning readers. School Days takes a look at an average school day in the lives of children from seven countries around the world, showing how they are all different and yet all the same.
This innovative book takes 10 ingredients that kids love-tomatoes, corn, rice, potatoes, bananas, strawberries, apples, honey, chocolate, and yogurt-and presents them in a whole new way. First, the book explains where each food comes from or how it's made. Then top-selling author Annabel Karmel gives healthful, fun, easy-to-follow recipes featuring that food. Honey cakes, baked apples, strawberry cheesecake, tomato soup, and many more tasty, child-friendly recipes fill the pages of this bright cookbook.
The activities and guidance in this book will help teachers to develop the confidence and meet the individual needs of young children with English as an additional language across different settings. There are also practical and varied language teaching strategies to promote learning for children working individually or in small groups.
The first part of the book focuses on the introduction and development of oral language skills and the particular needs of young "additional English language learners" settling into a new environment.
