Menschen 1: Kursbuch A1 mit DVD-Rom

Paperback, 196 pages. Coursebook, Level A1.

This course is based on the idea that feelings and stories about other people are what encourages learners to actively engage in their language learning from the beginning.

Material is introduced in a story telling form - with a scene-setting situation and listening text, accompanied by a picture dictionary to illustrate new vocabulary. Various activities are then used to expand on the subject in question including songs, movement exercises, games and film excerpts to ensure that all types of learners are accounted for when practising new vocabulary, structures and phrases. Each chapter closes with writing practice and speaking exercises or a mini-project to round off the topic.

Four additional chapters offer supplementary resources including magazine style pages with supplementary reading texts; activities to accompany the film clips on the course DVD; Projekt Landeskunde and songs. The DVD-Rom offers extra exercises to expand and revise class work and activities for self-study.
