To the TeacherOrganization of theStudent BookWeaving It Together, Book 3, has eightunits. Each unit is divided into two chaptersrelated to the unit theme. Weaving ItTogether, Book 4, has nine chapters. Eachchapter has two readings related to a singlechapter theme. The themes have been carefullyselected to appeal to a wide range of interestsand to promote discussion and comparison ofdifferent cultures.The sequence of activities in each chapterfollows this pattern: What Do You Think? activity Pre-reading and predicting activities Reading Vocabulary activities Comprehension activities Discussion and critical thinking questions Writing skills Writing practice activitiesEach step in the sequence is important tothe final goal of enabling students to produceexcellent written English. All skills of reading,writing, generating ideas, and developingvocabulary are integrated throughout eachchapter with the aim of achieving this goal.Grading of Written WorkThe criteria you choose for grading yourstudents’ written work will vary according tothe aims in your course description. In general,your students can be expected to hand in atleast one preliminary draft of their work beforehanding in their final draft. The process ofre-writing and editing written work is4consistently emphasized in this series. Theediting tips at the end of each section will helpstudents become effective editors of their ownand each other’s work. It is also important tovalue original and thoughtful writing as well asthe amount of effort invested in the work.Here are some suggestions for correctingstudents’ written work: Use written correction symbols so thatstudents have to find their own mistakes(see page 13 for examples). Make clear your criteria for gradingwritten work. You may want to use thesame criteria each time, or you mayprefer to focus on specific points. Youmight focus on paragraph formatting forthe first assignment, for example, andthen gradually add other criteria suchas grammar, vocabulary, and content.See page 12 for possible writing rubrics,which may be adapted for your class. Have students work in pairs to checktheir essays before handing them in. Peerediting is a great way to help studentslearn to become more independent.Encourage students to use the editingchecklist at the end of each chapter inthe student book when correcting eachother’s work. Remember that a page coveredin corrections is going to be verydiscouraging for your students. If onemistake recurs frequently in an essay,correct it just once and ask the studentto find other examples of the mistake byhimself or herself. Remember to use a balance of bothpraise and criticism in your comments!To the Teacher00238-X 001-005.indd 414/12/09 2:07 PM

JournalsJournals provide an effective way ofincreasing the value of class time, as theyencourage learning outside of class. Studentscan experiment with new language they haverecently learned or read, prepare their thoughtsabout a topic before discussing it in class, orrespond in a personal way to the topics thatare discussed in class. Journals are especiallyeffective with shy or quiet students, who maynot feel comfortable speaking out in class.They are also an excellent way for you to getdirect feedback from students as to how wellthey have understood a lesson and what theirfeelings are about the topics under discussion.Journals allow teachers to communicate directlywith individual students on a regular basis.There is no doubt that the use ofjournals creates extra work for the teacher!Be realistic about how much time you canspend on reading and responding to yourstudents’ journal writing. However, the moreenthusiastic you are about journals, thebetter your students will respond, and youmay find yourself learning a great deal thatwill ultimately help you to understand yourstudents better and aid you in your classroomteaching. Suggestions for journal writing tasksare given throughout this manual.Following are some suggestions for usingjournals in your class: Use journals for freewriting. Do notcorrect spelling, grammar, or other errors. Respond with brief, supportive commentsthat show you appreciate the writer’sfeelings as an individual or engagein dialog with the student by askingquestions about what has been written. Provide a model journal entry to showstudents the length and the type ofwriting you expect to see. State your criteria for grading journals atthe beginning of the semester. You mayfind it sufficient if students complete therequired number of journal entries, or youmay want to grade effort or relevance tocourse material. It is important that thesecriteria be clear to your students beforethey begin journal writing. Set a fixed number of journal entries anda fixed number of times for journals to behanded in over the course of the semester.Internet ActivityAlso at the end of each unit is an Internetactivity, which gives students the opportunityto develop their Internet research skills. Thisactivity can be done in a classroom settingwith the guidance of the teacher or, ifstudents have Internet access, as a homeworktask leading to a classroom presentation ordiscussion. The Internet activities are designedto help students develop a critical approachto information obtained on the Internet. Wehave not suggested any specific Websites,but this manual provides suggested keywordsto be used with a search engine as well asadditional activity ideas. Go to elt.heinle.com/weavingittogether to find out more about howto do an Internet search.Note: Remember that not all Websites provideaccurate information. Students should beadvised to compare a few Websites to helpverify data. Be careful to warn students of thedangers of giving up any personal informationon Websites or downloading any files fromunknown sources.To the Teacher00238-X 001-005.indd 5514/12/09 2:07 PM

Each chapter takes approximately2 hours of class time.Lesson 1 (60 minutes)1. Unit Photo and Warm-Up(10 minutes)The unit opens with one or morephotos reflecting the theme of theunit. Use the photos to ask questionsrelated to the general theme and togather ideas to be used later in the twochapters. The unit opener also containsthe What Do You Think? activity whichis meant to tap background knowledgeand generate interest in the topic ofthe readings in the unit. Have studentscomplete the What Do You Think?activity individually. When they havefinished, match students with a partnerand have them compare answers andagree on one answer for each item.The teaching hints for each chaptergive additional information related tothe chapter theme and creative waysof introducing the theme, therebyactivating the visual, audio, andkinesthetic learning styles of students.2. Chapter Photo, Pre-ReadingQuestions (5 minutes)Use the chapter photo to elicit morefocused discussion on the topic of thereading. Use the pre-reading questions6Book 3to introduce the specific theme ofthe chapter. Activating students’background knowledge of the topic willmake the readings easier to understand.3. Predicting (5 minutes)This activity helps students focusmore closely on the material they willencounter in the reading. The aim ofthe predicting activity is not to findthe correct answers (though they maycheck the answers after doing thereading), but to develop the skill ofanticipating what the text is going tobe about by looking at a few key items.The predicting activity in Unit 2, forexample, encourages students to guessthe meaning of words and comparetheir guesses with the meanings in thereading; the predicting activity in Unit4 encourages students to guess whatthe story is about by looking at a few ofthe key words.4. Vocabulary and ComprehensionQuestions (25 minutes)To encourage rapid and effectivereading skills, you may wish to followthis pattern:a. Ask students two or three easycomprehension questions thatguide them to the main points ofthe reading. (See the teaching hintsfor suggested questions.)

Use the teaching hints for additionalideas on using the reading andextending the comprehensionactivity.5. Discussion (15 minutes)The discussion questions and criticalthinking questions give students achance to respond to the readings ona personal level by relating the themeto their own concerns and giving theirown opinions. The result is a deeperprocessing of the material, which willhelp students remember the vocabularyand the theme and develop ideas to usein their writing later. You may assignstudents to summarize ideas from thediscussion for homework.Lesson 2 (45 minutes)1.
