In EntreCultures 3 we present rigorous tasks that hone learners’ skills. Your learners will have the opportunity to engage with authentic texts and literature, experience IPAs with all modes of communication, reflect on the knowledge they have learned, interact with students from different francophone countries, and more, all while encompassing elements of AP® skills.
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.
EntreCultures 3 includes three differentiated formative performance-based assessments and one summative IPA per unit to help teachers assess what learners can do with the language they have acquired. IPA-specific, analytic, and holistic performance rubrics accompany this series in print and online, so teachers and students can stay on track.
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 3 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 EntreCultures leveled CI/ADI Correlation Guide, you will be sure to find plenty of readers to fit your learners' needs.
EntreCultures 3 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 3 fully aligns with ACTFL's World-Readiness Standards and incorporates the NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements, performance descriptors, and proficiency guidelines.

The Digital Package includes access to Learning Site®
Learners and teachers alike use the Classroom Forum anytime as their online community bulletin board. Teachers love posting lesson openers, polls, links to external resources, and more. And students can comment, exchange GIFS, and upload audio, videos, and photos.
Mock conversations with pre-recorded conversation prompts challenge your learners to hone their conversational skills. Learners record themselves replying to comments and questions, and the recorded conversations can be added to their portfolio as an artifact.
Online student portfolios follow learners from unit to unit, level to level. Students can upload evidence of what they can do in the language - assigned Can-Do statements, activities, quizzes, audio files, PowerPoint and Word files, and more. This allows them to set goals and reflect on their progress related to Can-Do Statements.
Use the online calendar to remind students of upcoming assignments and deadlines, assign tasks to specific learners or an entire class, and more. Explorer® lets you know when your students complete their work and alerts students as soon as you’ve graded. Grade each quiz question response without opening each question in Explorer®. Automatic grading is available where appropriate.
Wayside’s Instructional Strategies Toolkit provides loads of instructional ideas and approaches that can be filtered by mode, skill, proficiency level, activity type, learning style, and more! Whether you are a new teacher or want to find new strategies, the toolkit provides built-in world language methodology and pedagogy training at any time.
