Only Wonder World devotes a whole unit to a relatively broad array of drink vocabulary. These words are taught in the context of Yes/No questions of preference. The grammar lesson teaches the morphosyntax of the helping verb (do/does) when used with second and third person subjects. The optional lesson teaches English tea time customs, and reading comprehension lessons are now included in each unit. This lesson teaches reading for details in order to choose low sugar, healthy drinks. In contrast Here We Go teaches only four main types of drinks in the fourth grade Book 3 unit 4. That unit couples drinks with uncountable foods, and even the extension vocabulary does not add any supplemental drink vocabulary. Therefore, teachers using the Hanlin Here We Go series should be sure to teach extra drink vocabulary either at the fourth grade or in unit 3 of book 5 when uncountable food is taught.

Only Wonder World devotes a whole unit to a relatively broad array of fruit vocabulary. These words are taught in the context of ingredients for fruit salad and are practiced with the question "How many (fruits) do you need?".  The grammar lesson teaches the question phrase "how many" to query the quantity of countable items. The optional lessons teach the other "apples" in Taiwan, e.g., "wax apples" and "sugar apples" and the concept of zero waste by using orange peels to make a naturally scented cleaner. The reading lesson teaches healthy  servings of fruit. In contrast, Here We Go teaches only four fruits in the third grade book 3 unit 3. That unit teaches a few  more fruits in the optional lesson about fruit  plants. Therefore, teachers using the Hanlin Here We Go series should be sure to teach extra fruit vocabulary either at the third grade or in unit 3 of book 5 to contrast with uncountable foods.

Both Wonder World and Here We Go teach the days of the week with Yes/No and interrogative questions (What day is today?).  Wonder World's grammar lesson teaches capitalization of days of the week and proper nouns, while Here We Go focuses on different subjects with the  interrogative "what", e.g., what day, what time, what color, which implicitly teaches the concept of interrogative phrases or chunks. The optional learning in Here We Go teaches skimming and scanning for opening hours information (day and time) , while the optional learning in Wonder World teaches holidays that fall on the same day every year. At the 5th grade level both books include reading passages to consolidate vocabulary learning and also to learn reading comprehension techniques. Wonder World's reading contextualizes days of the week with routine chores, while Here We Go summarizes the opening story and mindmaps it.

Wonder World teaches school subject vocabulary in the context of preferences with Yes/No questions and interrogative of "favorite". In contrast, Here We Go springboards from days of the week to teach school subjects in the context of weekly schedules using Yes/No questions. Wonder World's grammar lesson teaches possessive pronouns across gender, number, and person (previous lessons on possessive pronouns were first and second person only), while Here We Go's grammar lesson teaches the morphosyntax of the helping verb (do/does). Wonder World has two optional lessons, one about the capillary action of plants which springboards from "science" and another about dream jobs which synthesizes statements of ability and goals to derive a career option that incorporates all elements. Here We Go's optional learning teaches some alternative subjects in contemporary curricula around the world.

Wonder World teaches locations as a person's destination with Yes/No questions and the interrogative, "Where are you going?" Wonder World's optional learning lessons teach occupations associated with locations, i.e., doctors, mail carriers, police officers, and also teach culturally specific "markets". The grammar lesson teaches be-verb conjugations for the different subject pronouns in the Q&A patterns. Here We Go teaches the same interrogative for location/destination, but also teaches locations on streets. The grammar lesson teaches be-verb conjugations like Wonder World, but the optional learning is a lesson in applied knowledge tasking students to recall location vocabulary in their real-life commutes to school.

Both Wonder World and Here We Go teach transportation with yes/no and interrogative questions, but the meaning and sentence structures are different.  Wonder World asks about the means of getting to a location with a modal auxiliary (can), while Here We Go asks about commuting routines with the helping verb "do". Wonder World's grammar lesson explains that the modal auxiliary cancels the 3rd person singular "s". Wonder World's optional learning lessons apply the vocabulary knowledge to navigating with map apps on cellphones and  planning travel itineraries that involve multiple modes of transport, as well as the concept of bike sharing. Here We Go's grammar lesson teaches morphology of "go/goes" with different pronoun subjects, and the optional learning discusses different modes of transportation when traveling around Taiwan.

Both Wonder World and Here We Go teach clothing vocabulary in conjunction with money and prices. Wonder World's grammar lesson teaches conjugations and pronoun declensions for plural and singular clothing  items, while the optional learning teaches smart shopping habits by distinguishing between want and need, as well as traditional clothes in other cultures. Here We Go has an identical grammar focus, but the optional learning teaches re-usability of items with flea markets.

Both Wonder World and Here We Go teach possessive pronouns and common objects, accessories with the interrogative question "Whose___ are/is it/they?". Accordingly, the respective grammar lessons are the same, both teaching the singular and plural forms of the Q&A patterns. Wonder World's optional learning teaches the life skill of finding lost artifacts by asking at the most recent place of use and then Lost and Found. Here We Go's optional learning teaches how to pack bags for a school trip.
