Quick answer
Use the Teacher's Kit alongside the Student Kit to structure lessons, teach songs, and keep parents informed. Focus on the illustrated song sheets and the home-school communication sheet for maximum impact.
Why the Teacher's Kit matters for early learners
Young children learn French best through repetition, music, and visual cues. The Teacher's Kit provides ready-made tools that turn abstract language concepts into concrete, memorable activities. It is designed to complement the Student Kit, so you are not starting from scratch.
What the kit includes and what it does not
The kit contains a Teacher's Guide, a home-school communication sheet, and 20 sheets of illustrated thematic songs. It does not include student workbooks or manipulatives—those are in the Student Kit. This separation lets you focus on instruction while students follow along with their own materials.
How to use the Teacher's Kit step by step
- Review the Teacher's Guide first: Read the Teacher's Guide to understand the lesson sequence and how each activity connects to the Student Kit. This gives you a roadmap for the term. Common mistake: jumping straight to the songs without the guide, which can confuse the lesson flow.
- Teach one song per week using the illustrated sheets: Display the illustrated thematic song sheet while you sing. Point to the images as you say the words. Repeat the song three times in a session, then ask students to point to the matching picture. Checkpoint: if students cannot point to the correct image after two sessions, slow down and review vocabulary before moving on.
- Use the home-school communication sheet weekly: Send home the two-sided handout each week with the song title, key vocabulary, and a simple activity for parents. Ask parents to sign and return it. Common mistake: sending the sheet home only once. Regular communication builds parental support and reinforces learning.
- Combine with Student Kit materials for self-correction: After teaching a song, let students use their Student Kit materials to play a matching game or self-correct. The song sheets in the Teacher's Kit serve as the answer key. Checkpoint: observe whether students can self-correct independently. If not, model the process once more before the next song.
