EntreCultures 2 uses the same cultural, proficiency-based approach as Level 1 to introduce new vocabulary and structures in context that take learners beyond the basics of the French language, recycling previously learned content to strengthen their communicative skills. Learners continue to engage and interact with the French-speaking world and make comparisons between francophone communities and their own.
The standards-based EntreCultures program is all about increasing French language proficiency and cultural competency for novice through intermediate students through the lens of interculturality. Students discover appropriate ways to interact with others whose perspectives may be different from their own by exploring the lives of real people from the entire francophone world.
In EntreCultures 2 Companion Reader Edition, vocabulary and grammar are presented in context and with visual support to aid comprehension. The online Explorer® provides all audio-visual resources, online versions of activities from the student text, supplementary activities for vocabulary and grammar reinforcement, an online portfolio for students to track their own progress, and the searchable Instructional Strategies Toolkit for teachers.
The EntreCultures 2 Companion Reader Edition includes the comprehensible input reader, Émeraude, le bébé tortue marine. This engaging novel strategically weaves high-level language structures into a compelling story, which is based on high-frequency vocabulary. Wayside's novice readers maintain a high-frequency factor of high-level language structures, thus helping learners progress beyond typical proficiency levels.
Each teacher edition of EntreCultures provides guidance in incorporating proficiency-based instruction in your classroom, provides ample tips and ideas throughout each unit, and includes a helpful section on teaching strategies.
The EntreCultures series leads with AP® and IB themes. Teacher resources in the front and end matter of the Teacher Edition outline AP® and IB themes and subthemes, so you can start your learners on the right foot.
The EntreCultures series is full of unit-aligned authentic resources from more than thirty francophone cultures around the world, like podcasts, news stations, video bloggers, and more.
The U.S.-based authors of EntreCultures, all educators and leaders in the field, considered a variety of learner and educator styles in the backward design of the series.
Assignable Can-Do statements in each unit of EntreCultures 2 show learners a direct connection between tasks and what they are aiming to be able to do in French. Learners can upload completed Can-Do assignments to their student portfolios to show growth, and when it is time to evaluate their learning, students can complete performance-based formative and summative assessments.
Wayside has more than 20 French CI/ADI readers, and our library continues to grow. With our leveled EntreCultures CI/ADI Correlation Guide, you will be sure to find plenty of readers to fit your learners' needs.
EntreCultures 2 nurtures your learners' interculturality by reflecting on the products, practices, and perspectives of francophone communities, as well as on how diverse languages, cultures, geography, and environments affect the world around them.
EntreCultures fully aligns with ACTFL's World-Readiness Standards and incorporates the NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements, performance descriptors, and proficiency guidelines.
