INFORMATION

The Wayside Approach Pioneering Methods with Exceptional Results Evolving with Research At Wayside Publishing®, our expert team understands proven teaching methods and helps refine them. We support educators in using ESSA Tier 4 documents to implement evidence-based practices. Our logic model is used for efficacy reviews, ensuring that our materials meet the necessary criteria to be effective.

Implementing Backward Design To achieve the goal of student proficiency, Wayside uses backward design. We start by defining what students should know and be able to do. Then, we develop assessments in all three modes of communication and create lessons and activities to support student learning.

Cultivating Interculturality With Wayside, students experience a uniquely intercultural classroom. Our programs foster connections to local, national, and international cultures. They promote exploration of personal and community identities and broaden understanding of other cultures as different rather than foreign.

Differentiating Instruction With tiered formative assessments, an online Instructional Strategies Toolkit, and instructional notes in the Teacher Edition for scaffolding, differentiating and challenging students, educators can easily customize the learning experience to meet individual needs.

Why Wayside for CI The Best Choice for Comprehensible Input (CI) At Wayside, we know that the key to learning a language isn’t just practice—it’s understanding. That’s why our CI products are designed to immerse students in meaningful, understandable language right from the start.

I love your readers. My students felt like they could read French after just 20 days!

—M. McHugh, French Teacher, New Jersey

CI Done Right

Engagement Meets Expertise

We combine the best of CI techniques with stories that keep students engaged. Our readers are crafted to give learners the input they need—language that’s just a little bit challenging but always understandable. The result? Students aren’t just memorizing; they’re acquiring language naturally.

Our readers aren’t just entertaining—they’re backed by expert language educators, who know exactly how to combine great stories with language-building strategies. That’s why teachers trust us, and students can’t put our books down!

Built for Real Progress We focus on giving students lots of quality input before asking them to produce language. It’s like filling a toolbox with all the right tools before expecting students to build something. With Wayside, learners absorb the language and can confidently start using it when they’re ready.

10

The Smart Choice for CI Choosing Wayside means giving students a language-learning experience that works. We prioritize real comprehension and progress over rote memorization. Focusing on input provides students’ with a step forward for their language growth.

Technology that Lights a Path to Possibilities

eBooks for each text are embedded within a classroom so that teachers and students can reference any material, any time - no lugging books back and forth! An interactive student eBook means that selecting a link immediately opens an activity, audio, or video.

Custom gradebook categories enable teachers to build a grading system that makes sense for their classrooms. Create grade categories (like Homework, Assessments, Practice) with the weights you want.

Quality audio and video are featured throughout Course Materials and include several options for playback, download, and accessibility. Teachers can control audio and video or allow students to access on their own.

The Student Portfolio makes it effortless for students to reflect and report on their own progress. Can-Do Statements are found throughout the units, tied to activities and assessments. Students can update their progress on Can-Do Statements as they work through assignments.

Five Reasons TO TEACH FOR PROFICIENCY

1 2 3

Ability to communicate:

Teaching for proficiency focuses on using the target language in realworld contexts. It’s a shift away from learning grammar for grammar’s sake. Communicating with authentic language helps students see that learning a language develops valuable skills that they can use beyond the classroom.

Grammar & vocabulary in context:

Teaching for proficiency encourages educators to teach grammar and vocabulary in context and not in isolation. Teaching grammar and vocabulary this way helps students see the language as a form of communication, not just a list of rules or words to memorize.

4 5

Clear learning targets:

Essential questions and unit goals, Can-do statements, and rubrics help demystify students’ goals and help learners self-reflect on their progress. Rubrics let students see what is appropriate for their proficiency level so they can start stretching themselves to reach the next level.

Success in the target language:

Engaging activities and tasks using authentic resources at the right proficiency level encourage students to want to use the target language. Once students get a taste of being able to successfully understand and be understood in another language, it will motivate them to keep learning.

Real-world knowledge:

Authentic resources allow students to use language the way it is naturally spoken outside of the classroom. These activities help learners use language as a vehicle to share and gain knowledge, whether they are communicating in the interpretive, interpersonal, or presentational mode.

THEMA 1

THEMA 1 SPRACHFUNDAMENT 1: Vergleiche machen - Der Komparativ und der Superlativ Wenn man verschiedene Dinge vergleicht, benutzt man die grammatikalischen Formen des Komparativ und des Superlativ. Bei Vergleichen zwischen zwei ungleichen Dingen wird die Konjunktion „als“ verwendet. Wenn zwei Dinge, die man vergleicht, ähnlich sind, verwendet man die Konstruktion so… wie mit einem Adjektiv.

Was?

Wie?

Komparativ

Der Komparativ wird mit der Endung –er gebildet. Viele einsilbige Wörter mit den Vokalen a, o, u bilden den Komparativ mit einem Umlaut.

Was?

Wie?

Komparativ und Superlativ als attributives Adjektiv

Wenn der Komparativ oder der Superlativ als attributives Adjektiv (Adjektiv+Nomen) verwendet werden, bekommt das gesteigerte Adjektiv die jeweilige Endung für Genus und Kasus.

Beispiele: Komparativ: -er-(Adjektivendung) Die Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin hat eine größere Sammlung als das kleine Museum in Weißenstadt.

Superlativ: -(e)st-(Adjektivendung) Die Hamburger Kunsthalle hat die größte Sammlung.

Franz Marc

Stamm (Adjektiv oder Adverb) + ¨ (a, o, u) + er

Egon Schiele, Vier Bäume (1917)

Bei unregelmäßigen Adjektiven ändert sich die Form im Komparativ und Superlativ.

Beispiele: Paul Klees Katze und Vogel ist 38.1 x 53.2 cm groß. Egon Schieles Vier Bäume ist 110.5 x 141 cm groß. Gustav Klimts Der Kuss ist 180 x 180 cm groß.

Zum Beispiel:

• Gustav Klimts Gemälde ist größer als Egon Schieles Werk.

• Paul Klees Werk ist kleiner als Egon Schieles Gemälde.

• Gustav Klimts Gemälde ist so interessant wie Paul Klees Werk.

Designed to incorporate online and in-class learning, class time is spent on initial translations as learners practice identifying genre, lyric meters, prose types, and language patterns. Learners apply what they have learned to sight reading independently, so that class discussion and assessment cements the skills and confidence they will need for the exam, college, or law school.

Tasks structured to mimic the AP® exam build confidence for exam day. AP® tasks are unit-embedded, communicative and thematic, so that prep contributes to unit language and culture objectives.

My relationship with Wayside has been one of the highlights of my teaching career. One year I helped 40 students pass the AP® exam with 5s and 4s.

Great service and great books. Thank you.

With units built around rich cultural topics and compelling Essential Questions, EntreCulturas and EntreCultures are the perfect fit for our IB Middle Years Programme.

—Molly Wieland, K-12 World Language and Immersion Coordinator, Hopkins, MN
