"Popcorn" is a course for 6-12 year olds, encouraging them to be active learners. It engages and maintains their interest through lively stories, games, songs, rhymes, drama, projects and craft work - activities that are fun as well as educational. "Popcorn" reflects the varying interests and abilities of learners in the 6-12 age range. The course develops at the same pace as the learners who are using it, both in terms of language and conceptual ability. In Levels 1-3 (ages 6-9), pupils follow the lives of American schoolchildren of their own age. They are encouraged to compare their lives with those of the characters they see in the story. In Level 1 the emphasis is on speaking and listening, with a gradual introduction to simple reading and writing. By Levels 2 and 3, children are encouraged to broaden their horizons. Work is incorporated from other areas of the school curriculum, and topic units are introduced in Level 3. The Teacher's Books provide guidance and ready-made lesson plans, a breakdown of language, topics and skills covered at each level, plus ideas for additional ways to exploit the material provided. These can be photocopied and used at the end of each term.
