■ About the Tap & Talk Series Since its founding in 1985, TISG has operated numerous international preschools and after-school programs across Japan for more than 40 years. The Tap & Talk Series is a set of English learning materials developed in-house by TISG for children ages 3 to 12. In 2022, TISG began offering “Tap & Talk Phonics,” a beginner-level textbook specializing in phonics (*1) learning. Designed to help children deepen their understanding of letters while learning the relationship between English sounds and letters, the material is widely used to develop children’s ability to read. *1 Phonics refers to the rules connecting English letters and sounds. Each of the 26 letters of the alphabet has both a name and a sound, and children learn to combine these sounds to read words. It is a common learning method used by children in English-speaking countries. ■ Overview of “Tap & Talk Reading” One of the most effective approaches to English reading and writing is reading aloud and extensive reading through stories. “Tap & Talk Reading” is a comprehensive English learning program for beginners, centered on 48 stories aligned with the Lexile Framework (*2), through which children can gradually learn reading comprehension, phonics, grammar, and more. At TISG, the materials are used in the LTE Course, which students attend once a week, both as classroom materials and as home-learning materials. The program is also available for general sale and is designed so that children who are not enrolled at TISG can use it for self-study. The materials consist of four English levels ranging from 100 to 200 Lexile and three types of textbooks. Through the experience of reading stories, children build vocabulary and reading comprehension while comprehensively developing the foundations of English, with the goal of acquiring basic skills, including reading and writing, equivalent to the Eiken Grade 3 level. *2 An indicator of English “reading ability” and “text difficulty.” ① Readers Children learn basic vocabulary while enjoying interactive stories. These materials are designed to steadily and comfortably develop the reading comprehension and vocabulary skills needed for long-term learning. ② Workbooks Using words and sentences from the stories, children learn phonics, handwriting practice, reading comprehension, grammar, and more. Through pencil-based exercises, the workbooks aim to help children firmly retain what they have learned through hands-on learning. ③ Extension Books These supplementary texts are designed to further enhance learning outcomes. Children revisit the same skills covered in the workbooks through additional practice exercises. ■ Purchase Here Gridmark STOREYou can purchase the materials by selecting “オトデルシリーズ” from CATEGORY in the site menu.
