FRIENDS TEACHER'S MANUAL |
 |
This
96 page Teachers' Manual covers the NEW FRIENDS reader, and the student workbook that
corresponds with the reader.
This manual contains complete, detailed instructions and suggestions for teaching this
curriculum and for using the corresponding workbook. The Teacher's Edition will motivate
each teacher to use her own imagination and adapt the ideas to fit her way of teaching and
her students' individuality. |
To get
full value of each lesson, teachers should follow this teacher’s edition, then allow
their imagination and that of the children to lead them into deeper and more interesting
learning experiences.
In the Teacher’s Edition for NEW FRIENDS, you will find copies of the children’s
workbook pages along with detailed teachers’ instructions and suggestions, and the
lesson answers . This should make teaching this curriculum convenient and easy for the
teacher.
Helping children understand what they read is a very important part of the teacher’s
role. These instructions help you to do just that. |

| NEW
FRIENDS TEXTBOOK READER |
|
This
delightful 284 page hardback reader is full of easy-to-read stories and illustrations that
will capture your students attention. The 36 stories that fill this book relate
true-to-life incidents which could happen to any child. For that reason your students
will identify with the characters and circumstances. This keeps their interest and focus
on the curriculum. Most of the stories teach lessons in virtues that are upheld by
people with Christian values. |
| You can also
purchase the 3rd grade reader textbooks without the workbooks or teacher's manuals. You
can purchase the readers as a set or individually. The teacher should discuss each story with
the children, thus helping the children understand the lesson. It is only when the
children thoroughly understand the moral of a story that it leaves a lasting impression.
By working with stories they enjoy and can relate to, your students focus on
English grammar, reading, spelling, writing, thinking skills, and penmanship. A child
has the best advantage for learning language arts skills in this effective and lasting
manner. |

| NEW
FRIENDS STUDENT WORKBOOK |
 |
This 96 page
workbook has been prepared especially for third graders in a home school, parochial, or
other small classroom environment. Specifically designed to accompany the NEW FRIENDS
reader, this workbook was prepared not only with the children in mind, but their teacher
was also considered. |
This
workbook has been designed to train the children to work independently with a minimum of
teacher assistance.
If the children are acquainted with the first and second grade readers, they will be ready
to meet NEW FRIENDS and MORE NEW FRIENDS in the third grade readers.
NEW FRIENDS and MORE NEW FRIENDS and their accompanying workbooks follow the same pattern
as those in the second grade reader. There are always at least three workbook pages
that go with each story. Before the story is read, the "Working with Words"
should be done. The children should be encouraged to do these on their own as much as
possible but it is important that the children should know how to pronounce each new word
before they attempt to fill any blanks.
The "Learning through Sounds" pages may be assigned any time the children need
extra work or have time to do them. There is no connection between these pages and the
stories in the textbooks.
The ‘Thinking about the Stories" pages should be done after the story has been
read in class. The children should again be encouraged to do all the work on their own,
using their textbooks whenever they are needed.It is important to discuss the stories and the morals in
them with the children. Always be sure the lesson is clear to the children.
Please note: We made a few minor changes in both
the pupils’ and teachers* editions of this workbook, such as numbering some questions
to make it more convenient and correcting some mistakes. If you should happen to be using
pupils’ books from an older printing, you will notice these differences. Hopefully,
they will all be the same in the future.
No teacher should try to teach the
lessons in this book without the help of the Teacher's Edition containing the detailed
instructions and suggestions, plus many supplementary exercises. |
