Welcome to English Code
English Code is a new course that uncovers the power of language to convince, startle, and amaze.
Throughout the course students will develop a coding mindset to support creative language learning
and engage with content which encourages creativity, problem solving, collaboration, and real-world
communication. This course will motivate students for success in exams and help them face the challenges
of a fast-evolving future.

WHY ENGLISH CODE?


Learning is changing – The Coding Mindset
We never stop learning, and understanding how to learn ensures we have the building blocks we need for
the rest of our lives. This course develops a coding mindset so that students will have the ability to change as
they learn. A coding mindset is a willingness to experiment, an acceptance that you will make mistakes, an
understanding that your improvement will not be linear, and knowing that perseverance will succeed.

Creative thinkers and better problem solvers


We know that in today’s rapidly changing world, critical thinking and problem solving are essential skills for
tomorrow’s success and that young learners need to be introduced to these higher order thinking skills. English
Code supports students’ development of these future skills through a focus on creativity and creative thinking.
Creative thinking is present in all aspects of life and being able to apply creative thinking, students are
more able to approach problems with resilience and apply innovative solutions, which is key to learning a
language. In English Code, every lesson provides a range of engaging contexts and activities that progress
from memorization, understanding, and application to analysis, evaluation, and finally, creation. It is through
undertaking this journey that students will be equipped with skills critical for their future.

Working together to inspire confidence


When students work together, they can learn from each other and share ideas in a safe and supportive
environment. Every student thinks and learns differently, so by working together they can challenge each
other to develop their ideas further. This course provides collaborative learning opportunities for students
to improve on social interactions, develop oracy, learn self-management and leadership skills, and enhance
problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

Encouraging total student engagement


Every student has their own personality and their own eyes on the world, which impacts on their learning path.
This course uses a variety of creative and real-world activities to spark interest in learning English and to ensure
students feel challenged without struggling to understand. Creative activities give students the opportunity to
use their imaginations and share ideas to make things, create pictures, present their work, and role-play stories
and plays. Real-world activities ensure students can relate to what they are learning and understand why and
how it is useful in their everyday lives.

Cross-curricular
Educating children means preparing them for their future studies and working lives in an increasingly global
world. This course teaches English through other subject areas, for example, science, technology, engineering,
art and design, and math (STEAM). These lessons provide students with opportunities to do experiments, draw
conclusions, collaborate with others, question their findings, and understand theories, all in a foreign language.

Global Citizenship and culture


In English Code, students are invited to explore fascinating cultures around the world and compare aspects with
their own culture. Students are also encouraged to think about their place in the world and their influence on
others and the natural environment helping to nurture global citizens.

WHY PEARSON ENGLISH?
At Pearson, we have a clear mission: to help people make progress in their lives through learning. Our vision is
to have a direct relationship with millions of lifelong learners and to link education to the way people aspire to
live and work every day. To do that, we collaborate with a wide group of partners to help shape the future of
learning. We believe that we all need to embrace lifelong learning, continuously acquiring new knowledge and
skills to thrive in an ever-changing and increasingly connected world.

GLOBAL SCALE OF ENGLISH


Each unit in this Teacher’s Edition provides you with an overview of the Global Scale of English (GSE) reading,
listening, speaking, and writing objectives covered. In the Student’s Books, the objectives that appear at
the start of each lesson, and the Now I can … statements at the end of each unit relate to the vocabulary,
grammar, and skill descriptors within the GSE.
The GSE is a standardized, granular scale, from 10 to 90, which measures English language proficiency. Unlike
other frameworks which describe attainment in broad bands, the GSE identifies what a learner can do at each
point on the scale across the four skills. The scale is designed to motivate learners by giving more granular
insight into learning progress.
The GSE is aligned to the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). The CEFR and GSE both comprise
a number of Can Do statements, or “Learning Objectives”, for each of the four language skills. Describing what
learners should be able to do at different levels of proficiency. The learning objectives are written to reflect
what a student “Can do” with language without regard to the context in which a language skill may surface.
You can see the range of objectives for each level on the cover of the coursebooks. This will help you to select
materials with the right level of support and challenge for your students to help them progress. It does not
mean that students need to have mastered all objectives below the range before starting the course, or that
they will be at the top of the range by the end.
For more information about how using the GSE can support your planning and teaching, your assessment of
your learners, and in selecting or creating additional materials to supplement your core program, please go to
www.english.com/gse .

GSE TEACHER TOOLKIT


Let the Global Scale of English (GSE) save you time and improve the quality and relevance of your English
classes. The GSE Teacher Toolkit makes it quick and easy to find learning objectives, grammar, vocabulary, and
coursebook recommendations all mapped to the GSE and CEFR.

PROJECT WORK TO INSPIRE AND FOCUS
The benefits of project-based learning are numerous and this is what has set the foundation for the overall
design of the course. It inspires and focuses the learning from the very start, and gives students a sense of
control and direction in their learning journey. In English Code this means that:

At the beginning of the unit students are presented with a problem they need to think about and solve.
This hooks them into a real objective to work towards and helps with student engagement and motivation.
The project is in fact what directs the learning process in the unit – as they progress through the lessons,
students build the knowledge and skills they need to complete the project.

The end-of-unit project gives students the opportunity to use their creativity and collaborate with their peers to
solve the problem stated at the start of the unit. In the project, students are encouraged to follow a systematic
approach designed to develop their critical thinking and problem-solving skills, while at the same time review
and apply all the learning from the unit.

EMPHASIS ON FUTURE SKILLS
We recognize that soft skills are becoming increasingly important in a rapidly changing and uncertain future.
That is why English Code has been designed to place an emphasis on the 4 Cs.

CREATIVITY COMMUNICATION
Creativity is the ability to use one’s imagination Communication is a social process by which
and produce novel and useful ideas. Creativity is information is exchanged in order to convey
essential for the future workplace and therefore it meaning and achieve desired outcomes. This
is vital that this is introduced at the earliest stage means that it takes many forms, for example,

Projects inspire and focus students and give them a sense of control and direction in their learning journey.
At the start of each unit, students are presented with a problem they need to think about and solve. Then as
students work through the lessons in the unit, they build the knowledge and skills they need to complete the
project at the end of the unit.

Videos
Videos are a great way for children to learn, practice, and review their vocabulary, language, and learning
skills. Using videos can be both entertaining and engaging, but to use videos effectively you need to use
different techniques and activity types depending on the content of the video and the aim of the lesson. In
this level, you will find three different types of videos that can all be found on the Pearson English Portal.

GRAMMAR • Play the video again, and this time pause after
you hear examples of the grammar structure
and ask students to tell you what the examples
are. Then have students repeat the example all
together. You can provide support by showing
students flashcards or objects of the items so that
students are focused on remembering only the
grammar structure.
• Play the video again, and this time pause before
you hear examples of the grammar structure and
have students guess what the characters will say.
You can make it into a team game and give points
to the teams who remember the most examples
using the correct grammar structures.

memorable situations.
• Students watch the video to see and understand
the meaning of the new grammar structure and
how it is used. They then learn and practice the
new grammar structure through activities in their
Student’s Books, Workbooks, and Grammar Books.

Introduction
• The videos can be used to expand learning around
science-focused lessons. They are designed to be
fun and interesting while making science easy to
understand for English language learners.
• Students watch the video to learn more about
different topics covered in the experiment lab
lessons, for example, animals, plants, the weather,
etc. The videos introduce other ideas around these
topics to further students’ understanding and
build their curiosity, for example, how to identify
different parts of plants, how to observe and
describe plants, how to identify different trees, etc.

SKILLS DEVELOPMENT WITH THE GSE
In addition to the aforementioned monitoring and assessment tools, English Code has been built on the GSE.
The badging on the back of this book indicates the GSE proficiency range from which the learning objectives
for that course level have been selected.
Within the four language skills (Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing), GSE sets of learning objectives
are grouped into sub-skills relating to accuracy, actions and interactions, complexity and organization, and
strategies. Within these sub-skills, the objectives are further grouped into specific areas of competency and then
aligned to key development indicators. This supports more focused development and assessment of specific
sub-skills. The development indicators capture each discrete skill that learners are aiming to acquire at that
level. Learners are taught and may be assessed on individual learning objectives, but their progress is measured
in terms of their performance on key indicators across a course.
For example, let’s look at Speaking. Within the skill of Speaking, there is a sub-skill: Actions and Interactions –
Communicative exchanges:

LEARNING OBJECTIVE DEVELOPMENT INDICATOR


Can answer simple questions about objects (e.g., color, size) (22) Participate in common
informational, academic, or
Can answer simple questions about very familiar topics, if delivered
transactional exchanges using
slowly and clearly (29)
simple language and expressions.
Can answer simple questions about their daily routines using gestures
and short fixed expressions (29)

The GSE provides teachers with a view of students’ progress against key learning objectives that have been
covered in the course. Some of these learning objectives will be at the same proficiency level but for different
skills (breadth of proficiency) and some will target the same sub-skill at increasingly higher levels of ability
(depth of proficiency).
In your English Code Teacher digital resources you will find a chart showing you the key development indicators
that will be tracked in the course, and where they are introduced/practiced/reviewed across the units/chapters.
These charts will enable you to capture students’ scores on these particular activities within the teacher resources
so that you can track their progress during the course in each skill on the specific objectives (relating to the
key development indicator) that have been selected for those units. You should use these scores to inform/adjust
subsequent teaching to make sure all students understand and/or have opportunity to revisit key content and
are on track to achieve outcomes at the end of the course. At the end of the course there is a summative chart
which will give you the full picture of students’ progress on the key indicators across the course.

Our World
Intro:
Here we stand: children of every age,
This is our world and the world’s our stage.
We can laugh, we can cry – we can float, we can fly,
We can dance, we can sing – we can do almost anything
in OUR world … our beautiful world.
Verse 1:
Some of us are small; some of us are tall,
Some of us are shy; some say hi to everybody,
Some of us like numbers; some of us love words,
Some of us watch football, and some of us watch the birds!
(Chorus)
This is our world … we’re different but the same.
We live and learn together – we get to know each other …
in OUR world … our beautiful world.
Verse 2:
Some of us like music; some of us like cars,
Some of us draw pictures, looking at the stars,
Some of us are scientists, trying to find the code,
All of us can help a friend and give a hand to hold.

Flashcards This is our world – there’s room for everyone.


We learn to live together, and we have a lot of fun …
In our world … in our world … in our beautiful world!

Our World
Intro:
Here we stand: children of every age,
This is our world and the world’s our stage.
We can laugh, we can cry – we can float, we can fly,
We can dance, we can sing – we can do almost anything
in OUR world … our beautiful world.
Verse 1:
Some of us are small; some of us are tall,
Some of us are shy; some say hi to everybody,
Some of us like numbers; some of us love words,
Some of us watch football, and some of us watch the birds!
(Chorus)
This is our world … we’re different but the same.
We live and learn together – we get to know each other …
in OUR world … our beautiful world.
Verse 2:
Some of us like music; some of us like cars,
Some of us draw pictures, looking at the stars,
Some of us are scientists, trying to find the code,
All of us can help a friend and give a hand to hold.
This is our world – there’s room for everyone.
We learn to live together, and we have a lot of fun …
In our world … in our world … in our beautiful world!

to find all the things on their list, e.g., if the list
is bread, bananas, carrots, and chicken, then
they walk around asking classmates Excuse
me. Do you have any bread/bananas/carrots/
chicken? until they find the classmate that is the
bakery, the grocery store, and the butcher shop.

Games Bank
Games are a great way for students to learn, practice, and review their vocabulary, language, and learning
skills. Through game playing, they will develop critical thinking, communication, and memorization skills,
and build on creativity, teamwork, and good sportsmanship.
You can ensure students enjoy games by creating an environment where the competitive aspect is
challenging and motivating, but not stressful. Put students in groups of the same ability to ensure less
confident students don’t feel overwhelmed and more confident students are challenged. Have students
work in groups of mixed ability so that more confident students can provide a model and support for less
confident students.
Show students how to be supportive and friendly when others make mistakes, don’t know the vocabulary
or language, or need more time to think of the answers, such as saying Nice try! and You’re getting better!

Using a coding
mindset to support
creative English
language learning

In English Code, language learning takes place through hands-on


creative tasks, investigation, projects, and experiments. Stories and
videos provide motivating opportunities to learn skills for bright
futures. Coding, problem solving, math, and collaborative skills all
feature in a syllabus that includes built-in STEAM, driving learners’
natural curiosity about the world around them. A clear focus on
functional language gives learners the tools to become effective
and confident speakers of English inside and outside the classroom.

• Integrated future skills focus on creativity and problem solving


• Coding strand is introduced through code cracker tasks
• STEAM syllabus with hands-on experiments
• Audiovisual materials include phonics, grammar, and
STEAM videos

English Code is built on GSE learning objectives, which help to


monitor and measure progress throughout the course.
