Oxford Hopscotch – Level 1 is a thoughtfully designed English language course for young learners beginning their educational journey. Published by Oxford University Press, the book follows the latest NEP 2020 and NCF 2023 guidelines and promotes joyful, activity-based learning.
The course introduces children to English letters, sounds, words, rhymes, stories, and everyday vocabulary through engaging activities, colourful illustrations, songs, games, and interactive exercises. The content is carefully structured to support the development of listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in a gradual and enjoyable manner.
Using a phonics-based and experiential learning approach, the book encourages children to learn through observation, exploration, storytelling, picture reading, and creative expression. Learners build confidence as they recognize letters, develop vocabulary, understand simple words, and begin forming sentences.
The course also integrates life skills, social-emotional learning, and communication development to support holistic growth. Interactive activities, handwriting practice, vocabulary tasks, and language games help children stay engaged while reinforcing key concepts.
