🧭 Explorers: Who We Are Now

A fully interactive A2 Kids grammar-and-speaking lesson that opens the Explorer level by reactivating everything from A1. Students begin with four warm-up questions, then study the language in three clear blocks: The Two Presents (present simple for every day vs present continuous for now, with -s reminders and a signal-words panel: every day, usually, now, Look!, today), Have got & Can (I've got / she's got forms, can for abilities with the never-takes-s rule, and yes/no questions with short answers), and Question Power (a six-row interview toolkit table: What's your name, How old are you, Have you got, What can you do, Do you like, What are you doing now). Ten key words (explorer, team, mission, flag, partner, introduce, hobby, favourite, badge, brave) appear in a scrollable table with kid-friendly definitions and examples, and six get detailed review flashcards. The reading is a magazine-style Team File with four first-person mini-texts from kids in Türkiye, Brazil, England and Ghana, each mixing both presents, have got and can, with key vocabulary highlighted on hover. Practice includes 8 contextualised fill-in-the-blank questions (am/is/are, has/have got, can, third-person -s, and lesson words) with live green/red validation, hints and a running score; a speaking section with five interview prompts and a model 4-line partner introduction; a guided 25-40 word writing task with a four-point checklist mirroring the introduction structure (name+age, has got, can, hobby with -s) and a live word counter with auto-save; and a full 8-question multiple-choice quiz featuring a progress bar, per-question explanations, a conic-gradient result circle with tiered motivational feedback, and localStorage persistence.
