Hey All,

I need to find an ESL book series for (mostly)Elementary and Middle school students. The ones I'm using in the academy is the "Jump Up" series (if you know of them), which consists of reading/writing and phonics. There are about 6 levels and each level has about 4 sub levels(eg A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3...etc). These series include a student book and a work book.
My boss says, "just tell me which book to order..." I have no idea.
I'm at a loss here because I'm not sure what to find and the people in the bookstore are somewhat useless or they don't want to help me.
If you use a type of English Book series, which one do you use and would you recommend it?

Thanks

I'm using the Everybody Up series. They're alright, I teach grades 1-6 elementary after school classes but book # 1 covers a lot of what they learn in grade 3 when they should start learning English. They're a bit short, I teach all my grades at least 3 times a week using these books and some of the classes and I have to stretch each pair of pages to be a week worth of material but that still won't cover the whole year. The length is my only complaint though :P

I am using "Come on Everyone" books. They are quite nice, have a DVD and easy to print flashcards etc. Comes with a workbook and has a story book as well which we are doing once we finish the rest of the book. Same as Kriztee though books can be completed in 6 months, so not much to go through the whole year.  http://www.nebooks.co.kr/comeon/en/pages/everyone/introduce.asp
