2011-2012ENGLISH LANGUAGETEACHING CATALOG
Dear Educator,
The digital age has created a generation of students who are perpetually “connected”--to other people, to the vast resources and tools of the Internet, and to real-life models of natural English. The barriers of the analog world’s tools of language learning--clunky textbooks and inaccessible language labs--are breaking down, leaving an open field of constant access to natural language that was barely imaginable a decade ago. Harnessing this potential for language acquisition must be the target of any educator, and it is a challenge which we at Richmond Publishing have taken up. Conscious of the changing circumstances and needs of the modern student, we are focusing on the development of digital materials to complement the core instruction of the traditional classroom. Join us in 2011 in exploring the potential of new media as part of the exciting process of language learning.
Sincerely,
Alicia BeckerPublishing Director,

Preschool
Preschool
The world of the preschool child is filled with magic, family and adventure. For children
aged 3 – 5 the processes of inquiry and thought are key to their development of
knowledge. For this reason, it is necessary that preschool programs involve children in
everyday adventures while acquiring the language they need to negotiate the world in
which they live. A focus on play as a developmental strategy is key in working with young
learners. Preschool students learn best through singing, dancing, talking and doing.
They enjoy sharing with their friends and learning about the world around them through
doing. Children at this age are learning about themselves as well as the world around
them. They best develop the language confidence they need to communicate by playfully
interacting with music, pictures, charts, books and other high quality materials. They
acquire the sounds of language through rhymes, songs and chants. They acquire new
vocabulary through stories, games and projects.
They develop fluency through activities designed to encourage them to use their new
language in a purposeful way. They develop personal confidence as they master new
language forms in a natural, contextually supported environment. Language time
becomes something both students and teachers look forward to as a fun and exciting
part of the school day. Each lesson becomes an adventure in self discovery, in learning
about the world at large, and in learning a new language.
The best preschool programs supply teachers with a variety of materials and methods
to provide input to their students. They additionally provide multiple opportunities and
methods to support students in communicating with the teacher and their peers while
exploring new ideas while immersed in a supportive, low stress environment. Quality
programs for this age children learn language while also learning new concepts.
They bring to the young child a joy of learning and a feeling
of success. The thinking skills that are developed by being
exposed to language learning at the preschool level
allow a child to develop confidence as well as abstract
reasoning skills. These early skills transfer into all
parts of the child’s academic career and make them
a better, more proficient student as they progress
through their school years.

Crafting a motivating lesson!
In the primary classroom, particularly the early years, students often not have yet developed reading
and writing skills in their first language to a level that will allow them to start learning to read and write
in English meaning that the focus of English language development is more often than not on speaking
and listening skills.
We know that language acquisition takes place when learners are relaxed, motivated, exposed to
language and focused on meaning so it is important for teachers to provide these kinds of conditions as
often as possible in their classrooms. This means lowering anxiety, motivating the children and focusing
their attention on using the language to ‘do things’, and craft activities can do just that!
Just about every child enjoys craft activities. They are interesting and engaging for the children (and the
teacher!) and the fun element can help create a relaxed atmosphere in class.
As well as helping develop motor skills (e.g. through tracing and cutting, etc) and interpersonal skills
(e.g. through sharing paints, colours, etc) craft activities also provide teachers with an opportunity to
present and recycle language through TPR methodology, as often craft activities rely on imperative
verb forms to communicate instructions and many activities use recycled materials so the children are
exposed to the vocabulary for many household items (cardboard, newspaper, plastic, etc)
The final craft ‘product’ is a satisfying
conclusion to the activity and provides a
tangible reminder of the child’s linguistic
ability and teachers can often make use of
the finished crafts in subsequent lessons.
Many of Richmond’s primary school
series, such as Fun Way, include craft
activities and they make a fantastic
addition to any course material.

21st Century SkillsAn awareness of 21st Century Skills is essential for anyone involved in education today.
However, what are these skills and how can we integrate them into the English Language Teaching classroom?
There are a number of definitions of “21st Century Skills” but they all include the following elements:
1. Critical thinking and problem solving. Part of learner autonomy is being able to look at information and topics in a critical
way and work out answers to problems.
2. Team work. Experience of team work is invaluable as students will be doing this increasingly as they move on to higher
education and then professional activities.
3. Knowledge of core subjects and 21st century themes. In Awesome, as in many textbooks for secondary level, there are
strong cross curricular elements linking English to other core subjects students are covering as school.
4. Effective communication. This involves students developing the ability to articulate thoughts and ideas effectively using oral,
written and nonverbal communication skills in a variety of forms and contexts.
5. Information, Media and Technology Skills. IT skills do have a place in the range of 21st Century Skills but the key thing here
is how these skills are applied and used. One basic skill in this area is the ability to access and evaluate information.
6. Life and career skills. In Awesome, we cover life and career skills such as time management, effective study strategies,
skimming and scanning for information on the Internet, using a spell checker, using online reference materials, speaking in
public, social skills, dealing with stress and improving your memory.
The best way to focus on the importance of 21st century learning is to contrast this with traditional learning.
Traditional learning
• Teacher and classroom centred
• Based on memorization of information
• Frequent testing
• One dimensional in terms of intelligences
• Book based
• Rigid discipline
21st Century learning
• Student centred.
• Based on finding and understanding information.
• Different types of testing including self evaluation.
• More focus on different ways of learning.
• Multi components, learning outside as well as inside the classroom.
• Different roles and responsibilities for teachers and learners.
This gives an overview of how learning and teaching have changed to reflect the need for a different set of skills for learners. This
in itself is a result of the changes in the world we live in and developments in technology. 21st Century Skills is a catchy way of
labeling a series of skills that students need to acquire to be successful learners at school and effective later on in their academic
and professional lives. Integrating these skills into an ELT programme is fairly easy and learning will be much more relevant to
student needs if we do this.

Language Overview Young Adult and Adult

Young Adult and Adult
Global English and IdentityIn today’s globalized world, proficient non-native speakers of English now outnumber native speakers by five to one. Latest statistics estimate there are now more learners of English in China than native English speakers. The distinctions between native varieties such ‘British’ or ‘American’ English are starting to blur and, due to shifting populations and bilingual households, it is hard for some people to say what their mother tongue is these days. Faced by such facts and figures, what implications are there for us as English teachers? How should publishers and writers such as myself face the challenge of creating materials for a language whose status is changing by the day?
One clear implication is that sounding like a native speaker may no longer be as desirable as it once was, particularly in contexts in which no native speakers are present. For many teachers and students of English, this could be seen as a form of liberation. If we are teaching English as a linguafranca to be used on the world stage, we simply need to insist that intelligibility in international contexts be the benchmark to follow. The Common European Framework supports this idea by promoting the idea of the successfuluser of a language and partial competence, in other words encouraging learners to feeling good about what they can achieve in a language.
Of course, retaining some aspect of one’s nationality in our particular accents is a way for teachers and learners of English to retain something of their identity, as well. This is crucial, for as the applied linguist Deborah Cameron states: “Theacquisitionofanewlanguageraisesquestionsofsubjectivityanddesire;theproblemsconfrontedbythelearnerarenotjusttechnicalormechanicalbutinvolvecomplexissuesofidentity;whoamIwhenIspeakthislanguage?Oralternatively:CanIbemewhenIspeakit?”
As a writer, I think another way we can empower our students is by writing tasks and designing courses with plenty of opportunities for personalization and localization. Rather than just presenting students with examples of Anglo-American culture that may be distant from their lives, we need to make our students reflect on their own language and culture whilst acquiring another. However, because we produce materials for many different markets all over the world, we also need to cover global issues which should be relevant to people’s lives wherever they may live. It is this balance between the global and local – the glocal – that we have to try and strike.
Bearing in mind the above points, I feel that a series such as NewFramework and NewAmericanFrameworkrepresents a step in the right direction. Here, we present English as it is spoken today with non-native speakers alongside natives in international speech communities. We encourage intercultural awareness through tasks which challenge stereotypes in an adult, non-patronising fashion. We expose learners to situations in which we believe they will find themselves, and focus on the kind of language they will need in both social and professional contexts.
Keeping up with the pace at which the English language is evolving is quite a challenge. I believe that celebrating linguistic diversity and English’s changing status is the way forward, representing the language and its culture as it really is. We hope that Richmond’s NewFramework series helps to do just that, bridging that gap between the classroom world and the real world.

Why take an international certification?In a globalised world, people are becoming more and more interested in certifying their skills to remain
competitive in their academic and working lives. As part of this trend, never before has there been such
an interest from teachers, governments, universities and companies in English language competency. As
an example, last year over 1.4 million people took the IELTS and the exam is recognized by over 6,000
institutions worldwide. Other major testing bodies also report a steady increase in candidature as well as in
the recognition of their tests.
For our students, speaking English, when combined with other life skills, will give them access to higher
paying jobs. Increasingly, companies are asking for a certification so they can confirm the real language level
of interview candidates. In September 2010, Educational Testing Services (ETS) reported that a record 10,000
companies now recognize their TOEIC exam worldwide and that this will continue to increase.
In the academic world, there is also evidence that taking a recognized international English language
certification will give us access to a better education. Most of the world’s specialist and technical knowledge
is published in English and it is almost impossible to study a postgraduate qualification without being able to
read international literature on your subject. Universities know this, which is why they ask for TOEFL, IELTS or
Cambridge ESOL Main Suite test scores as part of their entry process.
For us as teachers, one way in which we can gain professional respect, apart from joining associations such
as TESOL or IATEFL, is by certifying what we can do. Just as lawyers and doctors have to take professional
exams in order to work, we also feel the need to take tests such as those from Cambridge ESOL or Trinity
College London combined with a language certification in order to be taken seriously as ELT experts. In some
countries, language teachers cannot work without having studied a full university degree in the subject.
Government bodies and schools are also realizing that it isn’t enough to employ teachers with a low level of
English or education graduates who haven’t spent time on developing language skills. Parents are joining in,
demanding higher quality for their children. In many countries, there are initiatives which aim to raise teaching
standards and help students get better access to good language teaching so that they can participate in a
world where international communication is paramount.
So, as we can see, international language and teaching certifications are becoming an important thing for us
as teachers to know about so that we can give advice to our students and continue to develop professionally.

CLIL – a new trend in English language teaching worldwide
CLIL or Content Integrated Language Learning, is becoming more and more popular worldwide as a method of
instruction. This is especially true in primary school classrooms. Subjects covered in CLIL courses are usually related to science,
geography or social studies but theoretically practically any subject could be taken as the basis for the syllabus.
CLIL is based on the premise that we can expose learners to subject-specific content while at the same time attending to and
developing their language needs.
According to Do Coyle, an effective CLIL lesson combines elements of:
• Content - Progression in knowledge, skills and understanding related to specific elements of a defined curriculum
• Communication - Using language to learn whilst learning to use language
• Cognition - Developing thinking skills which link concept formation (abstract and concrete), understanding and language
• Culture - Exposure to alternative perspectives and shared understandings, which deepen awareness of otherness and self.
The advantages of CLIL for our learners are manifold:
1. Because the focus is on content rather than on language for language’s sake, this methodology is highly motivating and
as a result, fosters learning
2. Language is presented in context and is therefore acquired more effectively
3. Learners acquire the cultural knowledge connected to the language and this gives them a deeper understanding of nuance
and register
4. Language needs are dealt with as they come up instead of as part of a linear grammatical syllabus; this is both meaningful
and motivating
For us as teachers, the biggest advantage of CLIL is that having motivated students in our classroom makes our job easier. We
will have fewer discipline issues and our learners will have fewer learning problems.
The challenge for teachers comes in the preparation of our lessons. It is important to look carefully at the material we will be
using in class and try to predict what language problems it may present for our learners. We then need to either grade the
text to suit the level of our students and/or come up with activities to help them understand and acquire the language they
need to deal with the subject in class and beyond.
Another challenge for us as teachers is to let go of the traditional grammar syllabus approach to teaching language and
deal with language issues organically as part of the learning process. We need to let go of the notion that a set syllabus of
language items needs to be covered in order for our students to have learnt something. Rather, we must evaluate students on
the subject content they have covered and on their ability to comprehend and discuss issues related to that content.

Reading and Writing in the 21st CenturyWith the advent of digital media, as well as social networking sites there has been a surge in the amount of reading and writing that we do.
Andrea Lunsford has argued that we are “in the midst of a literacy revolution the likes of which we haven’t seen since Greek civilization”.
Lunsford’s ‘Stanford Study of Writing’ investigates over 14,000 samples of student writing and concludes that technology is reviving and
developing our writing abilities.
However, what we notice if we examine the writing of so-called “digital natives” (Prensky’s, 2001 term for young people who have grown
up with digital media) is that the kind of reading and writing that learners are doing is different from the kind of reading and writing that
we usually teach in the classroom.
The first difference is that there is less of a distinction in the new literacy between reading and writing. There is much more interactivity
between the reader and the writer than with ‘traditional’ reading and writing. Compare, for example, a typical newspaper or magazine
article to an online blog. With the former there is usually no opportunity for the reader to respond to the piece of writing while with blogs
the reader is able to and encouraged to respond to the blog with a comment, message or question. Connected to this is the notion of
audience, the fact that writing is usually designed with a specific reader or readers in mind. With the new types of writing the sense of
audience has to be very keen in the writer so that the writing is appropriate. As a result of these concepts of audience and interactivity, we
find that the language used in new interactive reading and writing is often different.
In text messages it is common to leave out letters and to use abbreviations. Why? Because we are trying to convey the message as quickly
as possible and with as few characters as possible. Look at these examples:
Should we abandon teaching formal reading and writing and instead focus on new types of text like web searches, web pages, blogs, email,
text messages and social networking sites? The answer is clearly no. Learners still need to be able to read and write traditional forms of
text. In examinations and other academic situations standard written forms are expected of the learner and we would clearly be doing the
learner a disservice if we only taught her/him how to write using abbreviations and emoticons. A better solution seems to be to teach both
types of reading and writing, and more importantly to teach learners the differences between them.
In terms of reading, learners definitely need help with new reading like how to do a web search, or how to read and evaluate websites, but
they also need to be able to read print articles and academic papers– it’s not a question of changing what we teach, but rather a question
of using different types of input texts.
As for interactive writing, we need to teach learners both standard and non-standard forms and teach them that the latter is perfectly
appropriate if you’re writing a text message, but that it is not appropriate when your audience demands standard language.
Yes, we need to adapt to the new literacy, but at the same time we must not abandon strong traditional literacy skills – our learners need both.

Reading and WritingREADING
Like listening, reading is a receptive skill and learners need lots of exposure to written English before they can produce it for themselves. Reading helps learners extend their vocabulary and provides a variety of models for their own written skills. Teachers are often reluctant to spend time on reading in class as they think it can be done at home, but it is important that we equip learners with the skills they need to be able to read widely outside class.The first step to encouraging students to read more widely is to make them aware of how much or little they already read in English.
Reading period• If you do not already have one, you could introduce a reading period at the end of one of your lessons.• If you have access to graded readers, students can choose which one they want to read.•Students can bring in something they would like to read and this may stimulate other students to want to read
it too.•Students can build up their own class library and have a system of lending and borrowing things that they have
enjoyed.•Get students to bring in texts which they have enjoyed and to mount them on card to produce reading cards.
They can write a comment about the text when they read it and compare their opinions with other students.
Class readersYou may decide to have a book that everyone is reading. If possible, let the class choose which one they would like to read. You could read aloud to students while they follow in the book. People usually associate this with younger learners, but lots of older learners (including adults) enjoy being read to and it’s a good way for begin-ners to improve their reading speed. Many readers are accompanied by a cassette.
Student-produced workStudents may enjoy reading things written by other students in their class.
•You can introduce a slot where students read stories, plays, poems, jokes written by the rest of the class.•You can exchange things the students have written with another class in your school or another school.•It is also possible to swap texts with English students studying your language via the Internet which is an excel-
lent way of proving a world-wide readership for your student’s work.
Motivation and purposeSome students may not enjoy reading if they are not very good at it, so it is important to try to develop their skills if they are to read more widely on their own. They need plenty of experience of being successful readers as this is likely to motivate them to want to read more.
89
Readers
Reading is similar to listening in that we read differently for different purposes. For example, we need to understand all the instructions in a recipe, but we only need to understand the gist of a horoscope. In other words, a good reader chooses the right sort of reading for the purpose.
Good readersOnce students can read well on their own and enjoy it, our job is easy.
Good readers:• guess unknown words from the context• predict what is going to come next• read whole chunks rather than individual words at a time• interact with the text as they go along• understand what they read• enjoy reading
To give students the experience of being good readers, they need tasks and activities which get them to do what good readers do.
As with listening, students often feel that they have to understand every word and that they are reading badly if they do not. They need to be more aware of different ways of reading.
They can also choose how they want to read a particular text. For example, students can list three things they would like to find out from a text before they read it so they are setting their own task. This way they create their own reason for reading the text.
Timed and speed readingStudents can become better readers by practicing timed and speed reading against the clock to get them beyond the level of reading and translating. They will probably enjoy trying to get faster and can check their understanding with self-marking comprehension questions.
Reading clubSome students might enjoy forming their own reading club to exchange materials, ideas and opinions and they could probably organize it themselves, given a little help.

Knowing more than a language shapes our vision and spirit. Knowing how to teach a language can have a tremendous impact on a person’s life. Knowing how to help teachers has made me come to see the work of a professional inside and out. It takes a lot of heart and mind.
Claudette Muñoz
Being an academic consultant is one of the rewarding things I have done I get to learn a lot from teachers since it is a great opportunity to share things I have found useful and practical during the twenty years I have been involved in ELT.
Rosy Cortés
Academic consultancy is teaching, sharing and interacting with teachers. After 40 years of teaching, I believe there is still so much we can share and do with teachers in our country.
Inés Fauchey
Academic consultancy has enriched my life, both personally and professionally. It means becoming better by helping educators to improve and learn from their experience.
Homero Pineda
It was a matter of hard work and countless hours of dedication that led me to become an ELT Consultant. I embraced a path of methodological specialization to help teachers become better professionals… they have helped me become a better human being by showing me that any act of teaching is an act of love; now I have something really valuable to share.
Mauricio Cortés
The greatest joy I have found as a consultant is to empower teachers by recognizing their own worth.
Blanca Rey
Working with teachers and learning from them is the most satisfying part of my job as an academic consultant. Having the chance to share time and great experiences with teachers is fulfilling.
