Lucky and me / Lucky and you
Ana Monica Altamirano, Lucy Crichton
Lucky and me is especially thought for first graders with up to 3 contact hours a week. Lucky and you can be used after Lucky and me or as a self-standing course with children who have had some exposure to English and who can already read and write in the foreign language. Two lovable superheroes, Lucky and Poppy, will introduce children to the new language and will make it memorable for them.
By using the senses of sight, sound and touch, Lucky and me and Lucky and you will transport children into a world of fantasy extremely familiar to them, facilitating in this way their learning process.
