Let's Talk

Dear All,

There are three important books for English that you need to know about.

1. Let's Correspond [blue journal]
This is basically a journal where pupils are required to write on a certain topic fortnightly. Teachers will not be marking for marks and certainly not in red ink. This book serves as a communication tool between teacher and pupil. It also serves as a form of outlet for expression for the pupil.

2. Let's Explore
This book is a vocabulary bank. It can serve as a thesaurus for words that have been learnt or exposed to in the course of the unit. It also can be a bank of phrases of expressions for certain feelings, actions and etc. This bank would certainly help your child in his/ her writing.

3. Let's Create
This book is Written Expression but only the name has been changed. The purpose of this book is still the same. As mentioned in the previous post on MLEA, the 3rd step of writing process which is also the individual writing; will be done in this book.

I hope I have cleared some questions and misconceptions about the books' purposes.
