FOREWORD

Fun with English is a series of book designed for elementary school students. The main purpose of the book is to acquaint the students with English since the first year of their elementary education. Another purposes of this book are to help them grow with English and learn it with more enjoyable. Fun with English contains 5 lesson units and each unit has four sub-units. The lesson units are theme-based to some degree sequential and structured. Each lesson unit presents approximately ten new words related to the theme, one or two language functions and review. The sentence patterns are not presented in the form of rules; they are presented inductively through the rpeated use of the patterns in the relevant sections in each unit, particularly in the dialogues, reading and writing. Although each section in a lesson unit primarily serves a particular purpose, a creative or skillful teacher can use almost all the section in each unit to help the students develop the four language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. To make students enjoy learing English, each unit contains some language games and song. Although carefully designed and developed, the book is not perfect and there are always rooms for improvement. Therefore, the author would like to invite suggestions and criticism from users for the improvement of the book.
