며 Using the book

1 Begin by looking at the first story page (pag "e 2) . Look at the picture
and ask questions about it. Then read the story text under the picture
with your students. Use section 1 of the CD for this if possible.
2 Teach and check the understanding of any new vocabulary . Note
that some of the words are in the Picture Dictionary at the back of
the book .
3 Now look at the activities on the right-hand page . Show the example
to the students and instruct them to complete the activities . This may
be done individually , in pairs , or as a class.
4 Do the same for the remaining pages of the book .
5 Retell the whole story more quickly , reinforcing the new vocabulary.
Section 2 of the CD can help with this.
6 If possible , listen to the expanded story (section 3 of the CD).
The students should follow in their books.
7 When the book is finished , use the Picture Dictionary to check that
students understand and remember new vocabulary. Section 4 of the
CD can help with this.

간~ Using the CD
The CD contains four sections .
The story told slowly , with pauses. Use this during the first reading.
It may also be used for “ Li sten and repeat" activities at any point.
