Hello!

In the true spirit of professionalism, I have just been given 90 minutes to plan a course based on this book and OH MY GOD!!!!, It is literally for toddlers, total absolute beginners.

Does anybody have any tips on how to do this successfully?, does anybody know this book well?, does anybody have any advice on teaching 3/4 year olds whose only previous English experience is playgroup?

Help!

I have no idea about the book. In fact if you asked me who wrote any book I probably wouldn't be able to tell you.

About the children though, their attention span is extremely limited. I completely fill my lessons with games and songs related to the aim of the lesson with the first 5 minutes (and five minutes tops) to drill vocab etc. I leave the grammar to the Chinese teachers...
