Elementary Korean I Activity Book, Second Edition features a variety of task- and usage-based activities designed to help students improve their communicative skills in Korean through all three modes of communication: interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational. The second edition has undergone extensive revisions, featuring entirely new images, 28 QR codes linking to recorded dialogues and listening activities, and speaking tasks designed to promote classroom interaction and communicative language practice.
The introduction reviews the Korean alphabet, ensuring students are able to read and write Korean consonants and vowels, recognize them when heard, form syllable blocks in Korean, and write their own names. The main chapters focus on developing students' conversational abilities and confidence in using Korean in everyday situations. Students engage with practical topics such as introducing themselves, expressing feelings about college life, talking about locations and possessions, discussing classes and daily routines, asking about prices, counting objects, introducing family members, describing schedules, talking about past activities and experiences, expressing preferences, giving directions, and making plans for vacations. Through these communicative tasks and activities, learners build the linguistic and cultural competence necessary for real-world interactions in Korean.
Featuring a highly practical focus, Elementary Korean I Activity Book, Second Edition is an ideal supplementary text for foundational courses in Korean.
