Kids Box-3 Esl Curriculum 2022
ONE: INTRODUCTION
Kid's Box introduces pupils to the pleasures of learning English and enables them to consistently
improve throughout the five books in the series. All five levels develop pupils' abilities in the four skills -
listening, speaking, reading and writing - as well as challenging them cognitively and helping them to feel a
real sense of achievement in learning. As experienced teachers ourselves, we are aware of the demands and
difficulties involved in managing a diverse and mixed ability classroom. Teaching younger learners can be at
once the most rewarding and the most soul-destroying of pursuits! Sometimes we can have very bad days, but
it's the good days that give us an exhilarating sense of achievement, a sense of being part of a child's future
development. Plutarch reminds us that 'The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be ignited' and this
concept of learning underpins Kid's Box. Pupils learn when they are interested and involved: when they want
to find something out, when they are playing a game, when they are listening to a story, when they are doing
craft activities. Learning is an active process in every way and Kid's Box makes sure that pupils are physically
and mentally active and that they are encouraged to make sense of the language themselves. 'The art of
teaching is the art of assisting discovery', Mark Van Doren.
The language syllabus of Kid's Box has been carefully selected and graded to suit the age and level of
the pupils. Language is introduced in context and in manageable chunks, giving pupils plenty of opportunities
to practice and become familiar with the meanings and the sounds. Language is recycled throughout the units
and pupils can practice the language in different contexts. They can also personalize it. Recycling is
particularly important for young learners, who tend to forget quite quickly and who do not have the study
skills of older learners. For this reason, there is constant revision and recycling throughout the units and
course. The units are based around the Star family and their friends and toys. Characters give pupils a way of
contextualizing the language and help them to make it meaningful and purposeful. The characters develop
throughout the books so as to sustain the pupils' interest and motivation.
Learning objectives:
Listening
They can understand clear, slow, standard speech related to areas of most immediate personal relevance (e.g.
very basic personal and family information, shopping, local geography and employment) and can catch the
main point in short, clear, simple messages and announcements.
Reading
Students are able to understand short, simple texts containing high frequency vocabulary and shared
international expressions. They can find specific, predictable information in simple everyday material such as
advertisements, prospectuses and timetables.
Spoken Interaction
Kid’s box-2 students can communicate in simple and routine tasks requiring a simple and direct exchange of
information on familiar topics and activities. They can handle very short social exchanges, even though they
cannot usually keep the conversation going of their own accord.
Spoken Production
Students are able to use a series of phrases and sentences to describe in simple terms family and other people,
living conditions, educational background and present or most recent job.
Writing
They can write short, simple notes and messages relating to matters in areas of immediate need, linking a
series of simple phrases and sentences with simple connectors like ‘and’ , ‘but’ and ‘because’. They can write
a very simple personal letter, for example thanking someone for something.
Learning objectives from the Cambridge Primary English as a Second Language Curriculum
Framework: Stage 6
Welcome to the Cambridge Primary English as a Second Language Curriculum Framework. These
frameworks provide a comprehensive set of progressive learning objectives for learners of English as a
Second language. They are based on the Council of Europe’s Common European Framework of Reference for
Languages (CEFR), which is used widely both within and beyond Europe to map learners’ progression in
English. The curriculum frameworks are divided into five strands: Reading, Writing, Use of English,
Listening and Speaking. In line with the
CEFR, learning outcomes in each strand for each successive stage are defined in terms of what learners
should be able to do in English. This framing of learning objectives as a progressive can-do sequence should
encourage the use of learning-centered, activity-based approaches by teachers in the implementation of the
curriculum frameworks.
