Welcome to Greenman and the Magic Forest Dear parents, Welcome to the exciting world of Greenman and the Magic Forest Starter Level. This pre-primary English course has been specially designed to help your child learn in a natural way, exploiting the enthusiasm and curiosity they have as a young learner. The course aims to encourage pupils to experience the magic of nature while also learning to have respect for others and the world around them. Greenman and the Magic Forest introduces children to English through an enchanting world based around the adventures of two children, Nico and Sam and their encounters with Greenman, the magical protector of the forest. Pupils will accompany Nico and Sam as they learn about looking after the environment, enjoying the outdoors and having a healthy and active lifestyle. The new language for each unit is presented in a natural way through Big Book stories, which your child’s teacher will read aloud to the class. These stories tell the adventures of Sam and Nico, and their friends Greenman, Stella, Rabbit and Hedgehog. The children will look forward to hearing about Sam and Nico’s new adventures, and learning English at the same time. As well as listening to the Big Book, your child will also enjoy watching animated versions of the stories. Greenman and the Magic Forest also uses many songs to present and practise new language. Your child will enjoy singing the songs and will also be able to sing and dance along with the action song videos, both in the classroom and at home. Here are the lyrics for the Welcome song for Starter Level, Greenman and the Magic Forest. Welcome to the magic forest. Adventure has begun! Greenman and the magic forest. English is such fun!
