Welcome to Confidence and Connections! The unique emphasis of this series is on using conversation to facilitate meaningful connections. It is as important for you, the teacher, to share your own stories as it is to elicit stories from your student(s). When you ask students questions, be sure to have them ask you questions, too. In a group setting, use pair work to encourage students to learn about one another. In a one-on-one setting, learn about your student’s family and share information about your own. About your teacher book: Your teacher book is designed to be simple to use and make your classes as engaging and effective as possible. You’ll find a lead page at the beginning of each lesson. This page contains: • The learning objectives for the students ("Students will be able to…") • Suggested materials to bring to class • Useful notes • Listening transcript In each lesson, you’ll see helpful callouts with activity notes as well as the answers for each activity. (NOTE: The answer key does not provide capitalization.) In the first two lessons, we included notes for most activities. After that, you’ll find notes only for activities that benefit from specific instructions. In the back of the book, you’ll find an in-depth overview of teaching strategies for each section of the lessons, including additional engagement and expansion ideas that we encourage you to use. We've referenced sections from the back of the book within the callouts with bold text. The back inside cover of your teacher book has the Color Vowel® Chart. If you do not already know how to use this tool, please go to intercambio.org/webinars and sign up to attend a pronunciation workshop. This fun, interactive training will help you use this tool as well as Pronunciation Fun with Pictures (Pro Fun) and you will learn easy techniques for teaching the many sounds and stress in English. In addition, we encourage all teachers and students to use Pronunciation Fun with Pictures and The Immigrant Guide as supplements to their teaching. Happy teaching!

intercambio.org/teachers

L1 NICE TO MEET YOU By the end of the lesson, students will be able to: • Introduce themselves • Recognize and utilize the alphabet and basic numbers • Give information needed for registration (phone number, address) What to expect: This is the first day and the first level, so don’t be discouraged if students can’t answer questions or don’t say much. Praise whatever they are able to provide. Model everything. Use gestures. Use the board and have them use the board with you. Be careful in a group setting to not gauge your teaching level on one talkative student — especially for the first lesson. What to bring to class: • Table tents or name tags for student names • Pronunciation Fun to supplement the pronunciation activities • Alphabet and numbers cards • Envelope with name and address Teacher notes: You will see that the same grammar focus in this level appears in 1R Lesson 1 to give students plenty of opportunity for practice. Warm-up: Greet students. Have them write their first name on a name tag or table tent. These are useful even in 1-1 environments as it can be hard to remember new names. Try Conversation Rotation or 1-on-1 Exchange to learn names. Do your best to pronounce students’ names the way they say them. It’s okay to ask them to clarify a few times. In one-on-one classes, learn the names of the student, their children, and even pets. Listening Track 01 Sara: Hi! What’s your name? Jose: Hello. I’m Jose Lopez. Sara: Nice to meet you, Jose. How do you spell Lopez? Jose: L-O-P-E-Z. Sara: Thanks. What’s your phone number? Jose: It’s (970) 555-6751 Sara: And what’s your address? Jose: It’s 812 Main Street. Sara: Great. Your teacher is Dan Palmer. Jose: Thank you. Sara: You’re welcome. Welcome to your English class!

Culture Tip Practice with your students saying hello and making eye contact. (Some cultures will struggle — don’t force it.) Expand the conversation by asking How do people greet each other in your native country? Do they shake hands? Strong hand shake or not strong? Hug? Kiss?

L8 REVIEW & PROGRESS CHECK What to bring to class: • Dice (or use an app on your phone) Timing Note: • The Review and Progress Check can take as long as two hours (about one hour each). Be sure to allow for enough time for your students to work uninterrupted on the Progress Check. • Adapt Lesson 8 to fit the needs of your particular teaching situation. For example, if the schedule allows, consider doing the review in one class and the Progress Check in another. Giving the Progress Check: • First, let the students know the schedule for the class. Be sure to voice plenty of encouragement! Go over the whole Progress Check with students, letting them know that you’ll be pulling them out individually for the oral section. • Let students know they can ask you questions and that this is a time to see what they have learned. A: Listening Track • Do the Listening together (Activity A). Once complete, students will work on the rest of the Progress Check at their own pace. You’ll pull students out for the oral section individually. • Explain to the students that you will play the listening only 3 times (no exceptions). If in a group, you will all listen together for 3 times. For 1-1 classes, only play the listening track 3 times, even if your student doesn’t complete the full activity. • Read the instructions together as you would in a normal lesson. Listening: Track 09 Narrator: Listen to the conversation. Circle the information about Eduardo. Person A: This is my grandson. His name is Eduardo. He is 10. He goes to Aspen Elementary School. He likes to play soccer and watch movies. His birthday party is Saturday. I hope the weather is nice! F: Speaking Repeat the question one time if needed. Do not give prompts to the student. Score explanation: 2 = Understood question, answered question in a complete sentence, AND used correct grammar 1 = Understood question BUT answered with incorrect grammar and/or an incomplete sentence 0 = Did not understand question, did not give answer OR answer did not make sense for question GRADING & SCORING After grading, write the correct number out of 100 at the top of your students’ Progress Check. Be sure to review any incorrect responses together before moving on to lesson 10.

L9 FIELD TRIP Lesson 9 in every Confidence and Connections book is a field trip. The goal for the field trip is to provide your students with the opportunity to engage in the community in English and, in some instances, connect to resources of which they may not be aware. Take your students to a location that will be helpful for them in the long run. Tips for a successful field trip: • Visit the location ahead of time. Anticipate any challenges that may come up. Speak with the appropriate person at the site to let them know what is going on (if appropriate). If someone will be talking with your students, give them information about the students’ levels and tips for effectively communicating with English language learners. • Make sure students are aware of where and when class will meet on field trip day. Bring a map to class on Lesson 7 or 8. Emphasize that the field trip is a part of the class, not an extra activity. • We suggest you meet your student at the field trip location, or take public transportation together. • Once everyone has arrived, give an overview of the visit. It is up to you to decide how you want to structure it and what other activities — games, conversation, etc. — you want to include. • Check to see that your students have their books and pens. • Spend time before the field trip (in class or as homework, or at the beginning of the day) filling out the first portion of the field trip lesson in the student book (Important Words and Phrases I Want to Use, Questions I Plan to Ask). • Make sure your students are prepared to interact in English. You may want to create a list of questions or practice through role play beforehand. • Before you have students work with the book, briefly review the activities. As students work, make yourself available for questions. You may want to pair/group students. • Although the purpose of the field trip is largely to allow students to experience English in a real-world setting and recording “correct” answers is not the focus, you may want to complete the activities yourself to use as an answer key so that you can check their answers later. At the end of the visit, discuss the experience. Use the second half of the field trip lesson in the student book (Things I Saw or Found, People I Talked To, Notes) for this reflection. Have students discuss their findings in pairs or small groups before having a class discussion. After the discussion, assign homework. Remind students of the day and time of the next class. It is also a good idea to review the field trip at the start of the next lesson. If leaving the classroom is not possible, create a virtual field trip in the room or bring in a guest speaker to share information about a local resource. Prep the speaker with information about your class and any tips they need to communicate effectively with English language learners. There are a few suggested places to visit listed at the top of Student Book page 49. Option 1 – Go to a pharmacy or drug store. Discuss over-the-counter medications for body parts that hurt, etc. Option 2 – Go to a Rec Center or local park. Talk about what you can do there (sports, hobbies, etc.), and what options are available. Option 3 – Bring a photo album (pictures, videos) of your family to class. Show and tell in class. Or, consider somewhere else: A grocery store (practice vocabulary, apply for a store card, scavenger hunt), library (get a tour, apply for a library card), department or hardware store, rec center, urgent care center, bust station, restaurant, neighborhood or city walk (follow a map, scavenger hunt), museum, post office, drugstore, apartment for rent, city council meeting, public event (such as a farmer’s market, or outdoor festival)

L10 WE WENT OUT By the end of the lesson, students will be able to: • Talk about themselves using the simple past (only verbs went and stayed) • Talk about their schedules and activities from the previous week What to bring to class: • Table tents or name tags for student names • Pronunciation Fun to supplement the pronunciation activities • Calendars • Map of your town, city, or generic map of any town or city • Make cards for time expression (see the Teacher Book note for Activity G) • Blank index cards for activity expansions. Teacher notes: Be careful to only ask “Where did you go?” and not “What did you do?” Keep it simple. You will see that the same grammar focus in this level appears in 1R Lesson 1 with a slightly different context to give students plenty of opportunity for practice. They will continue to have more practice in future levels. Warm-up: Talk about the field trip. Talk about the Review and Progress Check — celebrate student progress. Share what you learned. If time allows, review a concept students struggled with on the Progress Check and do a short activity to practice. NOTE: Incorporate review and practice concepts students missed on the Progress Check. Listening Track 10 Juan: Hey Ana! How was your weekend? Where did you go? Ana: Oh, hi Juan! Last weekend was great! I stayed home with my family. Where did you go last weekend? Juan: I went to the movies on Saturday with friends and went to the park with my kids on Sunday. Ana: That sounds like a fun weekend.
