Paul, Lisa & Co.

"Paul, Lisa & Co" is a fun and easy way for pupils to reach level A1 of the CEFRL in 3 levels. "Paul, Lisa & Co. Starter" provides an "easy-does-it" introduction to the German language - smooth and gentle with no reference to grammar rules - and prepares learners for the next stage of the course - "Paul, Lisa & Co." A1.1 & A1.2.

Levels A1.1 & A1.2 introduce grammar rules in a way that suits very young learners. Children who already have some knowledge of German can start immediately with "Paul, Lisa & Co." A1.1.

Relating the adventures of the four friends Paul, Lisa, Julia and Alex helps to teach language in a relevant context and in an entertaining way. Topics such as a birthday, animals, hobbies or holidays provide great potential and together with the personal histories of the protagonists, create an emotional link with young learners. The broad range of practice material in the course supports a holistic and task-based approach to teaching.

In the coursebook the children create their own portfolio at the end of each lesson. In the workbook they are able to repeat and consolidate their learning objectives through a wide choice of practice material through exercises that involve colouring, solving puzzles, cutting and glueing to make learning even more fun. The accompanying audio-CDs contain all the listening texts from the books. The digital version of the coursebook contains interactive exercises for use with an interactive whiteboard.
