Happy House 1 New Edition (Teacher's Book + Teacher's Resource Pack)
Happy House New Edition is a story-based course for young children with very little or no previous experience of English. Based on extensive feedback and research, the new edition of the course builds on the characteristics pupils and teachers value and love and also introduces new features to this best-selling course. It introduces English through listening and speaking and Happy House 2 offers a gentle introduction to the written word. Happy House ensures that children's first experiences of language learning are stimulating and enjoyable, thereby developing in them an interest and motivation which hopefully will stay with them through their continued language learning experience.
All too often beginners are lumped together under the misleading epithet ‘false beginners’. This book dismantles the twin myths which underlie this categorization. The first of these is the convenient belief that there are no ‘real’ beginners any more. (Convenient because it allows us to get on with ‘exciting’ activities with learners, who can be presumed already to be in control of the basics.) This book confronts us with the awkward fact that there are still substantial numbers of real beginners, with problems of a quite different order from those experienced even by ‘false’ beginners.

Assessing Young Learners (Resource Books for Teachers)
It is generally accepted that we teach young learners differently from older ones. A whole range of entertaining, motivating, creative, and above all, physically engaging activities has been developed in recent years, to keep pace with the growth in demand for materials to teach this special group of learners. However, when it comes to assessing the progress of young learners, we often find ourselves driven back on testing materials which are more appropriate for use with older learners.
