Skills
The main focus of the Starter level is to develop listening and
speaking skills alongside the acquisition of key vocabulary
and structures. The course also develops pupils’ fine motor
skills through activities such as ticking, matching, circling
and tracing. From Unit 5, key vocabulary is presented on the
page to assist with word recognition. Optional worksheets
provided online offer some early reading and writing skills
which progress from recognising letters and words, to tracing
letters, to writing a few known words. The Vocabulary time
section in the Activity Book allows children to consolidate the
vocabulary from the series and develop some early writing
skills. The Activity Book also has the whole English alphabet
at the back of the book for reference. The Starter level has
been carefully planned as an introductory level to the series,
building the foundations to enable a smooth transition to
Level 1 of the course.
