Zoom in 4 is an innovative primary English course especially designed for children aged 9 to 11 years old. It aims to guide children through their first steps in English in a delightfully imaginative learning environment. The particular needs and interests of early learners are w ell catered for, while tried and tested methods in EFL teaching are the foundation of this course. A building block strategy has been employed, through which every lexical and gram m atical item is carefully presented and systematically revised in the course of the year. Zoom in 4 has been designed to be completed in one school year. It is based on a well-organised, multidimensional syllabus which focuses equally on grammar, vocabulary, language functions, lively topics and communication skills. The language is introduced in an attractive w ay using illustrations and picture strips suited to the students' age, cognitive development and experience. It is then system atically practised throughout the unit, while speaking, listening, reading and writing skills are developed in an integrated w ay through a variety of communicative activities. In Zoom in 4, it is intended that Ss' confidence should steadily be built up in all language skills, by developing the abilities which will eventually lead them to secondary level. In Zoom in 4, Ss are encouraged to produce a wealth of simple written projects as their bank of know ledge expands, giving them the opportunity to creatively personalise the language through the m any projects and writing activities described in the lesson notes. EACH UNIT CONTAINS TWO LESSONS: Lesson a provides continuity through a story tine involving the escapades of five basic characters that the Ss can identify with. It features Zoom and Zem friendly creatures that emerge from the computer to befriend the children: Lucy, Matt, Tina and Harry. Lucy and M att are sister and brother w ho own a lovable pet dog called Sparky. Tina is Lucy's friend w ho lives next door, and Harry is M att's friend. In Zoom in 4, the story-line continues from Zoom in 3. Lesson b provides variety, reinforcing and expanding on material from Lesson a. The presentation here may be either through factual texts, stories, songs, poems or even games. T E A C H IN G Y O U N G LEARNERS Children of the 9-11 age group are at a stage in their cognitive development requiring special teaching methods which take their specific needs into account. • Children learn by experiencing the world through all five senses. They have not yet developed the ability to understand abstract ideas about gramm ar rules and usage. Providing Ss with pieces of language like a dialogue or song that will stick in their memory, will mean more to them than teaching complicated rules. • Children learn by saying and doing, that is w hy this course is activity based. The course incorporates a wide variety of activities like colouring, drawing, playing games, singing, using stickers, making cards, dramatisation, etc. • Speaking practice starts with choral repetition in the guided reading practice section, then continues with fairly controlled driLLing in the practice section, and then on to freer personaLised language production as the course progresses. Memorisation is the initial process. 4 Teacher’s Book • Due to the short attention span of children of this age, the lessons are deliberately designed so that no more than 5-10 minutes will be spent on each activity to ensure that learning is not tedious but fun. • Teach children good writing habits and organisational habits from the start, and give advice on study techniques. Ss should also know exactly what homework to do for the next lesson. Have a special homework section in a notebook for a clear record of homework set, beneficial for both the students and their parents. • Organise your lessons in a particular routine. This gives students a sense of security and helps them recognise the various stages of the lesson easily. • Give every student a chance to shine - when you discover each student's individual talents, make sure you give them a chance to display them. • Be a child yourself: sing, dance, act, draw! Be enthusiastic it’s contagious! • Last but not least, remember that a creative and enjoyable learning environment is created first and foremost by the teacher with patience, humour, understanding and a spirit of acceptance. Lavish praise and encouragement on the students, however sm all their achievements. Sticker awards for good spellers or good reader stars are a secondary incentive for children, compared to a sincere smile of approval and "W e ll done!" from a teacher they trust.

Self-assessment also serves to indicate to Ss where their individual strengths and weaknesses lie The W orkbook material, which is carefully graded, carries the bulk of the writing practice in the course. It is m ainly meant to be assigned for homework, but som e of the w ork m ay be done in class. W hereas m any of the activities in the coursebook are designed for pair or group work, the writing in the W orkbook is intended to be for individual work. Class cassettes or CDs These contain recordings of: • all the dialogues and stories used for presentation • a presentation of all the active vocabulary • the listening activities • the pronunciation activities • the two traditional songs at the back of the book A ll recorded items are indicated by a cassette sym bol in both the Student's and the Teacher's books. LESSO N N O TES The Teacher's Book provides you with a step-by-step guide to teaching each lesson. There are no hard and fast rules and teachers display their own individual creative style in teaching. However, when pressed for time as most teachers are, it m ay be reassuring to have a Lesson outline with extra ideas handy for easy reference. D ICTATION (Suggested procedure) You m ay wish to give your class a short dictation at the beginning of the lesson. Be very flexible at the beginning of the year and only gradually should you insist on greater accuracy. Read the dictation phrase by phrase very slow ly at first, making sure the phrases have some semantic unity. Then read it again at normal speed so that students can check for mistakes. Alternative w ays of working with dictation include occasionally allow ing Ss to check each other's w ork before you do the final correcting (let the Ss give a mark) or getting a student to give you a dictation on the board, where you make deliberate " m istakes". Get the class to correct this and give you a mark. Letting the Ss see that you are willing to exchange roles and be "caught out" will create a more relaxed and less critical atmosphere in class. • To raise Ss' expectations, ask them to make predictions about the content of the picture strip. The Teacher's book provides pre-listening focus questions intended to focus Ss' attention on what they are going to hear. M ake sure you don't give aw ay the answers at this stage. In this w ay the Ss alw ays have an aim for listening, since listening and speaking are the initial stages in language learning. • Now and then it is suggested in the Lesson notes that a certain language point m ay be presented before the presentation text / dialogue, so that Ss can focus on the situation more readily and perhaps be prepared to focus more on other considerations such as the vocabulary or answering comprehension questions. On other occasions, the aim is to help Ss absorb the new points by showing how they lead on from previously taught items. PRESENTATION SECTION LESSON A Begins with a picture strip that features the main characters of the book and presents the main structures and vocabulary of the lesson in a pleasant situation that is appropriate to the cognitive and em otional development of children of this age. Ss listen to the dialogue at least twice. Look and listen This is the first time that Ss listen to the dialogue of the comic strip. Ss are generally intended to focus on the pictures only. After they've listened to the dialogue, compare their predictions and ask them to answer the pre-listening focus question. You m ay even ask them some general comprehension questions to check what they have understood from the dialogue. Listen, point and repeat This is guided reading practice. During this listening, Ss listen to each phrase in isolation, point to the correct speech bubble and repeat the sentence they have just heard.The cassette allows them enough time to repeat the sentence during the pause. The emphasis is on recognition of the written word. Some teachers m ay feel that their Ss have mastered reading at this level. In this case you may omit phrase by phrase repetition in certain lessons- the course allows this flexibility. The lesson must be tailored to suit the needs of each particular class. Get the Ss to practise the dialogues in smalL groups before you ask individuals to read so as to give self-conscious Ss a chance to practise without being singled out. M onitor them for correct pronunciation and intonation. Finally, you may ask volunteers to role-play the dialogue in front of the class if the situation being presented is suitable for this. REVISION It is suggested in the Teacher's Book that a few minutes are devoted to some revision at the beginning of each lesson. This may take the form of a brief gam e or role-play, brainstorming on word fields, revision of a song or poem. WARM-UP • In this section the lesson topic is introduced. It is suggested that the teacher should ask questions relevant to the topic in the Ss' native language (L1). A s the course progresses, more of this is done in English to recycle language as it is taught. Teacher’s Book 5 Introduction Reading Comprehension activity There is a simple reading comprehension activity on the dialogue that the students are asked to complete after they have done their reading practice. M ake sure that the students have understood exactly w hat they have to do before you ask them to do the exercise and check the answers in class. The exercise may take the form of Circling the correct answer, Matching, True/False, Multiple choice, Tick the correct picture. Answering questions and putting pictures in the correct order. Vocabulary presentation activity (Listen, point and repeat) • During this activity, the Ss listen to the new lexical items of the lesson twice. • During the first listening, they listen to the words and repeat them after the cassette. There is a pause so that the Ss have enough time to repeat the lexical item. • If you wish, you m ay then repeat the words in random order and ask the Ss to point and repeat the words after you for further reinforcement of the new vocabulary. LESSO N B In lesson b of each unit the structures presented in lesson a are recycled and consolidated. Occasionally, there m ay also be another secondary point being presented in the lesson. The text types are deliberately varied: from factual to stories and myths, from song to game. The practice section follows the same format as in the a lessons. Stories In m any b lessons the presentation of the new elements is performed through a story in dialogue form. The procedure that should be followed in this case is similar to that suggested for the picture strip presentations in the a Lessons. Factual texts Besides stories, there are also some lessons that contain factual information from the everyday world. These are meant to introduce the Ss to some longer texts of varied content and purpose. In this type of text, a slightly modified procedure should be followed. The focus is on silent reading. It is advisable that some work on the photos is done before Ss read: for instance, the Ss could be asked to make predictions about the texts that will follow by looking at the photos. Some scanning of the texts m ay be required and the Ss are encouraged to understand the general m eaning of the text, without worrying about the unknown words at first. They are given practice guessing at the unknown words and given guidance on using contextual clues to guess. When they have understood the text, they listen to the texts on the cassette and follow w hat they hear in their books. The next step is reading practice. In the end, ask them simple reading comprehension questions on the texts (suggestions are provided in each lesson plan). Songs and poems M usic and song play an important role in learning for this age group. Therefore, the new material in the b lessons is often presented through songs and poems. These have the advantage of providing very good pronunciation, stress and intonation practice, as well as variety in lessons. Since the relatively short concentration span of the children makes it necessary to constantly vary the classroom activities, diversity is the key, and music as well as gam es provide this. • Before you play the cassette, draw Ss' attention to the illustrations surrounding the lyrics of the song. 6 Teacher’s Book • If the songs are accompanied by actions, demonstrate these in front of the whole class as you play the cassette the first time. Ss learn in a variety of ways, but for this age group TPR (Total Physical Response) is best achieved in the context of action songs and games. Allow ing Ss to stand up and dance or perform the motions of a song during class will also reduce the feeling of restriction which comes from being seated during the whole lesson. • Ss can listen to the song / poem at least twice. The first time, ask them to follow the lyrics in their books. The second time encourage them to sing / read along with the cassette. • Finally, read the lesson-by-lesson notes for additional activities on specific songs. • Go back to favourite songs in previous units now and again to let the Ss absorb and expand on what they have already learnt. • Turn down the sound as the Ss are singing a song they know well - this will be an amusing test of their singing abilities. Quiz In one b lesson, the presentation is done through a quiz. This can be organised as a team game. PRACTICE SECTION (This is common for both lessons a and b) Listening activity The listening activity focuses on the main language points of the lesson. These are varied in form and carefully graded from easy to difficult as the course progresses. Communicative activity After all the input in the presentation stage comes the next stage: controlled practice in oral language production, which often takes the form of a pairwork activity or game. The situations most often aim at personalising the language point presented initially, using themes that are easily set up in the classroom environment and familiar to the children. Make sure that Ss swap roles and interact equally. Writing activity After speaking, there is usually a writing activity that aims to consolidate in writing w hat the students have already listened to or spoken about. These writing activities are short enough for the students to have enough time to do them during class. Remember that the bulk of the students' writing is to be done in the Workbook. Check the writing activities before Ss leave the class so that you are sure they have grasped the basic language point of the lesson. Look! This is a sm all highlighted box that focuses Ss’ attention on certain grammatical points. • Read through each example in class and make sure all Ss understand exactly w hat is explained in the box. • If possible, give further examples of the same language point. • Remember that chiLdren do not absorb abstract grammatical rules easily, so correct usage is presented through examples and practised by imitation, rather than being taught through the memorising of complex rules. Games In two b Lessons the practice is done through a game. The listening, communication and writing activities are skipped. A strong sense of competition m ay give some Ss a feeling of inadequacy, so tone down the competitiveness by getting Ss to change partners now and then. Also, encourage Ss to collaborate in sm all groups to encourage a team spirit. Z O O M M A G A Z IN E There is a two-page magazine before every Story time unit that aims to consolidate and review the material in the previous units of the book through the use of interesting texts and fun activities. The m agazines contain various reading texts, quizzes, tongue twisters, games and puzzles. Cross-cultural and cross-curricular information is aLso included in the texts and activities. The information is intented to motivate students to learn more about the world around them. relevant units. These questions can be answered either orally or in written form. You could even have Ss ask each other in pairs. • The pronunciation features the main sounds in funny sentences that the students are asked to reproduce orally. The sounds being practised are all highlighted. W hen they are required to contrast simiLar sounds, these sounds are highlighted in two different colours so that Ss can spot the difference in pronunciation and pay particular attention when they reproduce the sounds. S T O R Y T IM E Z O O M IN O N T H E W O R L D Following every Zoom Magazine there is a story consisting of three episodes. Through these episodes, students can practise reading in a contextualized form and have the chance to experience the language used in different situations. Additionally, the story line in each story has been designed in such a w a y as to promote reading for entertainment purposes, and maintains an element of suspense in each episode to motivate students to read on. These three units follow the Zoom in on English units and give cross-cultural factual information on one of the topics that w as taught during the previous units. The information comes from various countries and provides the m odel for a project that the students can prepare about themselves and/or their own country. R E V IS IO N U N IT S The three revision units of Zoom in 4 aim to consolidate and review the material taught in the previous units of the book. They consist of five exercises that aim to cover all the grammar and vocabulary taught in these units. 1. In the first exercise is a vocabulary exercise focusing on lexis recognition. This exercise is used as a technique for consolidating new vocabulary through categorising. 2. The second exercise Ss have to choose the correct answer between tw o alternatives. This exercise aims to recycle a key structure and/or some key vocabulary taught in the relevant units. 3. The third exercise is a comprehension-based activity where Ss are required to read three sm all texts and match them with the correct pictures. The students are required to look for specific information in the texts and match them with visual stimuli. 4. The fourth exercise is a short picture strip which involves new characters but recycles familiar vocabulary and structures. The Ss are asked to complete the gaps in the dialogue with words from the box. 5. The fifth exercise is a personalisation exercise that requires Ss to use the language being revised and apply it to their personal experience in writing. In the workbook there are also Can you remember units corresponding to the units of the coursebook. It is advisable to do the coursebook units in class and assign the workbook units as homework. Z O O M IN O N E N G L IS H These three units appear after every Can you remember unit in the book and aim to consolidate all language learnt in the units listed. Each unit is divided into three distinct sections: a gramm ar review, a personalisation activity and pronunciation. • The gram m ar review consists of tables highlighting the grammatical structures introduced (and modelled) in the previous units. To teach this, first read the tables making sure all Ss follow in their books. Stop after an important point and give Ss an extra example. Then ask them to give their own example to ensure that they understand. • In the personalisation activity Ss have to read and answer some personal questions involving grammatical structures and vocabulary items that they have been taught in the Teacher’s Book 7 Look at them! Language focus Q Structures: object pronouns imperative Vocabulary: sit down, stand up, touch, open, close Expressions: I'm sorry. Look at them! a Look at them! Warm-up • Books open.

Last year, my family and I went to Camp Travis. M y cousins were there, too. All the children slept in the caravan and our parents slept in the tents. Our parents cooked in the caravan but we ate outside. They sometimes made hamburgers, hot-dogs and chips. Yummy! We didn't swim because there wasn't a beach or a river near the camp. We played lots of games and sports. One day we saw two squirrels in the forest. They were brown and grey. We saw lots of birds, too. Our parents told us scary stories at night. It was fun! N o w do y o u r p r o j e c t . Zoom in on the world A factual text on holidays around the world • Follow the procedure as described on page 27 in the Teacher's Book. • For pre-reading focus ask Ss where they went on holiday, (Camp Travis). • For reading comprehension ask Ss the following questions: Where did the children sleep? (In tents.) W hat did they eat? (Flamburgers, hot-dogs, chips.) Did they sw im ? (No, they didn't.) • Follow the procedure as described on page 27 in the Teacher's Book. Workbook p.50 • Tell Ss that they are going to play a game. • Ss have to read the text and solve the mystery. • Tell Ss to read each sentence carefully and then try to identify each person in the picture. • Then Ss have to speculate and decide w ho ate John's chocolate. (His dog, Blob.) p.51 • Tell Ss that they are going to play a gam e and that they will need a pencil, for the game. • Ss work in pairs. • S A must place his pencil in an upright position in the direct centre of the circle (on the page of his book) and let his pencil fall. • Then, he should make a sentence using the verb in the past tense, eg. watch -> I watched TV yesterday. • Ss swap roles. • Tell Ss how m any turns they have. • WhiLe Ss are doing this, go round the class and monitor the pairs by helping them where necessary.

R obots G A M ES Either you or one of the students is the "R o b o t" and the rest of the class gives the robot orders. "Stand u p !", "Sit d o w n !", "Write your nam e!" etc. 1. H angm an a. A student thinks of a word and writes the same number of dashes as the letters of the word, on the board. b. The rest of the Ss take turns to guess the letters. If a Letter is correct the student at the board writes it on the correct dash or dashes. If a letter is not correct the student draws part of the person hanging from the gallow s and writes the letter on the board so that Ss don't repeat the same letter. c. The class wins if they find the word before the picture is finished. a. s b k F 2. Bingo This gam e can be played with any word group, e.g. Numbers, animals, days of the week, classroom objects etc. Ask Ss to draw a 2x3 grid in their notebooks and write six different numbers from 1 to 20. You call out numbers at random and the first student to get all his/her numbers called out wins. 3. Sim on S ays Play this game when you have taught enough commands. Tell the Ss that they must do only what "Sim on s a y s " . They must not perform the action if it isn't preceded by "Sim on says". W hen a student does so he/she is out of the game. The last student to be caught out wins. Revise the parts of the body using commands Like: "Touch your n o se ". 4. M em ory Chain This gam e can be used to practise or revise a wide range of word groups and grammatical structures. You say a sentence like: / have got a ball and the Ss take turns around the class saying this and adding one more item as they go along, e.g.: I've got a ball and a bike. An y student w ho forgets part of the chain is out. 5. Hot Potato Another version of pass the ball. The Ss sit at their desks and pass the paper ball, "the hot potato", as fast as they can. W hen you shout, "S to p !" the student stuck with the hot potato must spell a word correctly or he / she is out. 6. Thief! Put a number of objects or flashcards on your desk and get the Ss to look at them carefuLLy. W hen the class is not Looking, hide one of the objects / flashcards and see w ho can remember what the missing item is. 8.
