“柯林斯大貓系列”將以獨特的多重感官初級閱讀教程培養孩子持久的閱讀興趣。本系列圖書滲透了各種閱讀技巧訓練,同時鼓勵孩子多思考,以此培養孩子準確、流利閱讀的能力,同時將外國兒童教育的先進思維方式合理的運用在閱讀學習中,使孩子在享受閱讀的樂趣的同時,輕松完成英語學習。
研究發現4-5歲兒童,是接受各種事物的最佳時期,形象知覺發展最敏感,機械記憶能力也較強,抽象、邏輯思維能力開始發展,好奇心、求知欲望較強烈,肌肉的靈活性及用眼的協調性增強。他們需要通過感覺、知覺以及各種活動來探索世界,建立對周圍環境的認識和概念,“柯林斯大貓系列”針對這一特點,設計了粉色和紅色兩套圖書,每套圖書又分A和B兩個分支,A砸實基礎,B穩步提高,由淺入深,完成對孩子注意力、觀察力、記憶力和思維力的全面培養,扎實基礎,讓英語學習和思維訓練同時進行。
“柯林斯大貓系列”粉色套書中,以基本的單詞和句子為出發點,將孩子身邊常見的事物(食物、動物、形狀、顏色、動作和家庭成員)作為英語學習的內容,通過了解并掌握這些單詞和句子,為之后較難的學習內容扎實基礎,使孩子從懵懂之時就接受英語啟蒙教育,對孩子今后英語的活學活用有非常重要的意義。
紅色系列圖書將對粉色系列圖書的學習成果進行加深和鞏固。
“柯林斯大貓粉色系列” A、B兩套各包括14本全彩故事書、兩本父母指導手冊(英漢各一本)和學習CD一張。
