Recommended Books, Movies and Apps for Children and Teachers.
The Magic Crayons are all teachers working as English Teachers in Japanese Preschools, Kindergartens and International Schools.
We often get asked by parents and teachers to recommend books and videos that are suitable for young learners.
Within these new pages we aim to provide you with a list of media that we have used in our classes. In other words, we have viewed all the recommendations within these pages. In fact, there are some that we don't recommend.
Over time these pages will fill with lists of items that we use throughout the year.
If you area an ESL Teacher you will hopefully find our recommendations useful too.
Also for teachers I have included books that I found useful on my CELTA and CELTYL courses.
If you have any film, book or app reviews that you would like to add please send them along and we shall post them.
Thank you - Tim
