Details	This is book 1 in a series of English language textbooks designed to improve learners’ communicative and cognitive skills. Based on the aims and assessment criteria of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), this book follows CEFR’s goals for developing learners’ language skills. CEFR’s assessment criteria is categorized into proficiency levels (A1-C2), and this action-based book primarily targets A1-A2 levels. Vocabulary has been selected from A1-B2 CEFR-J levels; a CEFR informed word list designed for Asian learners of English. The selected language has been allocated within 6 topic-based modules of personal and social relevance for learners, such as food and fashion. These modules are looked at from international viewpoints so learners can improve their understanding of multiculturalism, and also learn to express their opinions about different cultures.
