Hi,
Im currently teaching a small class of 4 eight-year-old girls and they dont find "Kids Box" very interesting...they are simply not interested either in the activities or the songs (except in those which provide them the role of a teacher and some authority (ex. when they work in pairs and give commands to each other or to the whole class)) any ideas? Im trying to raise their interest by adding some dominoes and other games but in fact it seems that this course isnt working with them.
What do you do in such situations?

This information is obsolete, I really have to tell something more up-to date. We are actually enjoying "Kid's box", the girls especially like the songs, they sing them and even teach other children. They enjpy the games, too. So it's a great course. A lot of fun guaranteed. I recommend it.


* Shirley, thanks. The problem was in me, actually. I didn't follow the instructions provided by the teacher's book carefully enough. Everything is ok now.

I am using the macmillan but I found that the programm is very slow. If you want I would scan the tables of contents of courses 1,2 and 3 and send them to you. Children like the fluency book and love acting the dialogues.
