How to access each:

  1. To access the dual language ebooks, you will need to subscribe to Mantra Lingua's KitabooCLUB. This was launched in January 2016. For more information please contact henriette@mantralingua.com
  2. softback print books can be accessed through the search facility or by clicking here
  3. e-grammar tales using Ali Baba to learn about punctuation, etc can be a very effective way for primary school children, particularly those EAL students with a good knowledge of 'playground' English, to develop their literacy skills. Please click the picture below for further information
  4. Minibook creator: If you have the minibook creator software then you can make a mini-book of the story and narrate it in your own words with PENpal on each page.

  5. Storyboarding is a good way to visually deconstruct a story. The starting point is to think how you want to retell the story in 12 key sections. Then you can make your own pictures. But to get you started, we have made an A3 size artwork which you can colour in and use with PENpal and stickers or with viVOS Artframe. Click on the picture download the image file to your desktop. Then print out the desktop file on A3 paper.You can make as many copies as you like. Watch these videos to see how storyboarding works: the example in the video is using the three Billy Goats Gruff storyboard with PENpal and then the Storyboard with viVOS.
            
         
    We have intentionally changed the artwork so that children can see different views of the story and teachers can ask them to make their own drawings.
