LEGENDARY Course Book is a comprehensive, story-based, emergent reader program. The stories in LEGENDARY provide an authentic, contextualized framework through which vocabulary, language patterns and chunks, as well as emergent reading concepts are illustrated and activated. Pupils with different interests and learning styles can all engage in meaningful learning that also encourages social and emotional development. Pupils are provided with a myriad of text types, exposing them to a variety of linguistic structures that eventually translate to the development of writing skills. As pupils gain knowledge of phonics, they develop encoding skills that are essential to mastering spelling patterns. Pupils are guided from writing words to simple sentences to more complex sentence structures, and finally writing short, scaffolded texts. In addition, songs, chants and games are methodically incorporated to further develop young learner’s English language skills in a highly engaging manner.
