Arthur the Elf – Learn & Play
Arthur the Elf – Learn & Play is a comprehensive language programme designed for early years and primary school-aged children. It is organised around four modules: Speak, Read, Write, and Explore the World.
Speak focuses on communication and language skills. It includes picture storybooks, picture role play books, and activity books.
Read encourages the development of reading and comprehension skills through flash cards, rhyming picture storybooks, and first reading picture storybooks.
Write offers a wide range of activities designed to support the development of handwriting and writing skills.
Explore the World provides short stories as well as engaging activities supporting general knowledge, language and literacy skills, creativity, and problem-solving skills.
A Dual-Functional Teaching Tool
Arthur the Elf – Learn & Play is a dual-functional programme.
The course’s four modules are suitable for foreign language tuition as well as mainstream early years and primary school teaching.
As an educational and language-learning tool, it supports language and literacy skills as well as the development of cultural awareness and understanding.
Our teaching method is multi-sensory, with attention given to visual, auditory, tactile, and kinaesthetic learning.
The storybooks, role play books, flash cards, games, and activities use a dyslexia-friendly font, black text on light coloured background, short sentences, larger line spacing, and the usage of bold for emphasis.
Children build confidence and learn at their own pace.
A Story-Based Course
Arthur the Elf – Learn & Play is a course designed to appeal to a young child’s innate creativity and imagination.
The stories involve three young children and their magical friends. Anne, Henry, and Edward embark on magical adventures and share the many lessons they learn.
The stories promote self-confidence and self-awareness in early childhood. Through different scenarios, children are encouraged to take initiative and develop an appreciation of the value of teamwork. They also develop critical thinking skills and become problem-solvers.
