One World Teaching Kits, for children ages 3-10, have been developed over many years in our own classrooms. We have taught hundreds of children Chinese, Spanish, German, and French with unprecedented success.
Our kits have been refined through feedback from teachers, parents, and students. Every element of our kits is designed to minimize your planning time and fosters communicative approach to language learning.
All of the activities follow natural steps of language acquisition and full sentences and phrases are used from the start.
Elements of small culture are revealed through natural usage as the vocabulary and phrases are those that children in the target language country actually use. Specific lessons address topics of large cultural significance.
The program is flexible to suit your students’ learning styles, your teaching style, and your curricular goals. Everything you need to teach, from lesson objectives to games and materials to evaluation forms and parent communication materials, is included in the kit.
Our kits allow you to provide a fun yet serious and coherent language education. To view samples of each component of the kits, please click on "Samples" above.
