I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for textbooks/workbooks to be used for elementary school kids for grades 3,4,5,6

My plan is to use �Yes we can � book 1 for 3rd grade then book 2 for 5th grade.

Book 3 is too hard for my Japanese students so ideally I would like to use a book similar to �Yes we can � and do book 1 for the 4th grade and book 2 for the 6th.

 

The big problem I find in Japanese schools is that they assume that because the kid studied it once one week they can do it -but as we all know language isn �t that easy- so my idea is to teach basically in a 2 year block so that they get a chance to repeat/review the basics.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated

Cheers and have a good weekend everyone

Lot �s of support materials available for the above course, many from myself:

Both the above are more child centred than most books that are available, like Let �s Go and English Land.

Super-teachers can often make progress in one year chunks, but not me. I would always have too many children left behind, so I too would rather slow it down and consolidate. Many Japanese adults cannot answer even the most basic of questions after 6 years of grade-school English, so why they expect miracles from their own children (an us) is beyond me.

 

BTW Could you tell me a little about "Yes be can" as I have never heard of it.
