So my cousin {15 year old 5'9 girl) has just moved from Taiwan and is currently living with me. Aside from her assigned summer reading, I'd like her to start reading some other stuff to expand her vocab asap. Thus, I'm trying to compile a list of books and movies that she can read or watch. I was thinking Disney/Pixar movies as a good start but I don't know what else; as for books, I'm a bit unsure. I don't know if I should just find books that are at her reading level that are BORING/LAME as hell or if I should give her books that are slightly challenging. The problem with that is I don't want her to become frustrated and have to look up a word every 3 seconds. She's been learning a bit of english for a couple of years but doesn't have a great grasp on it yet.
Any advice/tips for someone learning English as their second language is welcome :) |
