“The SuperKids are my old friends! I hope they can become your friends — and your students’ friends, too. Learning and practicing English with the SuperKids is fun and exciting. Whenever I open the book to a new unit, I’m still delighted to see what they are doing and what they are saying. The dialogs are all useful English sentences and the vocabulary words are all great for everyday life. And the new “My Progress” page can help all of us, teachers and students alike, understand and remember just what we have been learning. May you come to love the SuperKids as much as I do!"
