Play and Learn is a series of three books, which aims to teach English to preschool children in a fun meaningful way.Each book in the series seeks to develop age-appropriate skills through activities, exercises, song, and poems that allow students to acquire the language in a natural way.Play and Learn books use the communicative approach and a teaching methodology that consist of:-Vocabulary presentation through attractive pictures of items that children are familiar with. Vocabulary is reinforced with language structures so that children can store the information (silent period) and then use it to begin to say single words or ready-made short phrases (beginning-to-talk period). -Excercises and activities that allow stdudents to reinforce what they have learned. Topics are interconnected so that children can learn, practice, and review different topics simultaneously. Explanations are easy to follow, which eases the teacher's task of making English learning more interesting and interactive.-Listening activities: visual-auditory exercises, song and poems related to the topic being seen. All the activities, available on the Coaching Trillas platform, are designed to improve student's listening skills and pronunciation, as well as review what they have learned. -A skill assesment chart to help the teacher assess the skill each students should have developed.All this makes Play and Learn an excellent means to help preschoolers learn English as a second language and have fun in the process.
