Hi all
I am new to this forum just thought i would post this for the elementary teachers among you (i presume you use this book as well!)
I am quite lucky as i am given almost free reign as to what i teach. I avoid this book as much as possible!
enjoy.

The book is painful. But the Korean teachers' manuals have some great "culture tips" in the back, such as this gem from grade 5:
| Quote: |
| Western people show exclamation even over trifles. This phenomenon isn't found an oriental culture that appreciates people who control their feeling and taciturn. We can usually see Americans who are moved so easily by things that Koreans aren't effected by. This means they are accustomed to expressing feeling freely and frankly. In Western culture, they start a conversation about the weather when they meet someone for the first time: "It's a lovely day, isn't it?" This is reference to the inclement weather in England. The people who live in an area with nice weather like Korea aren't touched by this kind of thing but Englishmen can be impressed. |
