Tools your students can use for independent tasks: PRACTICE EXTRA:

VIDEOS OR AUDIO RECORDINGS:

allows students to do additional online practice of unit vocabulary, grammar, for example, or take Brain Breaks and play educational games from a desktop, tablet, or even a cell phone.

can be made by students at home on their phones, tablets, or computers to build portfolios and share with you and/or the whole class. Online collaboration tools like Flipgrid may be used to facilitate video sharing.

LEARNER RESOURCES:

allow students to download course videos, audios, and animations.

DISCUSSION FORUMS:

(like Moodle or Edmodo) are good for posting a short task to start a student discussion.

C O L L A B O R AT I V E WRITING TOOLS: (such as Google Docs) allow upper primary students to do collaborative writing work.

Online etiquette and support to ensure smoother online classes: > At the beginning of the school year, establish a list of Ground Rules for Online Classes. Ideally, students should participate in the creation of the rules list. > Review/elicit the list of Ground Rules at the start of every lesson for the first few weeks of school. If serious slippage occurs at any point, remind students about the Ground Rules and elicit them. > Set aside class time to make sure students understand how all the online tools work; for example, how students can mute themselves, raise their hand, write in the chat, enter and exit a breakout room, etc. (With younger students, parents may need to be present to guide them in the first few weeks.) > Any time you introduce a new tool or application, make sure you take the time to ensure that students are adequately supported and that the majority of your students have adapted. Set aside a block of time to provide personal support or explanations for those students and/or parents who are struggling with the technology. > Establish regular blocks of unstructured online time when you’re available to communicate directly with students in a chatroom and answer their questions about homework or other class-related issues. > Remember that flexibility, patience, and creativity are key!

Tips and tricks for teaching CPP remotely: > All units of Cambridge Primary Path are similarly organized, though the number of activities and supplementary material varies. > Lessons are divided by focus, not amount of time, so you may cover more or less than one lesson in a class. > The lesson structure and activities in this guide are merely suggestions. You may need to adapt the activities and/or order and flow based on the level of student engagement online. > The correlation between the Student’s Book pages/activities and the corresponding Activity Book activities can be referenced in the Teacher’s Edition. > Additional fiction and nonfiction texts in the Activity Book are not included in this guide except as potential homework. However, the Activity Book is part of Presentation Plus and therefore may be presented during online classes depending on the number of class hours and your students’ needs. > Oracy reminders (look for oracy characters with speech bubbles) are sprinkled throughout Student’s Book lessons. Call these out and use the opportunity to remind students about the oracy skills they have already learned. > Play online games from Presentation Plus or watch Brain Break videos from Practice Extra whenever energy is lagging. > Assign pages from the Creative Journal at any time. > Fun Corner and Build Creativity activities from the Teacher’s Edition can be adapted for online warm-ups or wrap-ups or to provide a fun break from daily routine. > Flexibility and patience with trial and error is an important part of the online teaching process. Remember—there is no right or wrong way to adapt course materials for primary level students. As your online teaching experience grows, your classes will be more fluid and effective.

Flipped learning: You may be familiar with flipped learning, where pre-lesson tasks are assigned for students to do at home. Remote teaching lends itself to the benefits of flipped learning as students come to class better prepared and your online class time is more effective. You can flip lesson plans in Primary Path by assigning the following activities ahead of your classes: > Assign the Big Question video and Oracy Animations with simple gist questions ahead of class. > Have students draw pictures of or write sentences for Key Words. > Have students read and listen along to the fiction and nonfiction texts (or sections of these) and circle words they don’t know. > Have students prepare a brief answer for Time to Talk! boxes or Big Question links to share in class. > Ask students to find and circle the target grammar structures in the fiction or nonfiction texts. (In CPP, grammar is always presented first within the core texts and then practiced on the Grammar in Context page.) It’s important to understand that students are not expected to master pre-lesson tasks. Rather, the aim is to familiarize students with vocabulary and topics and encourage independent learning. This remote learning guide provides a recommendation for a flipped learning strategy for every lesson in CPP.

Follow-up tasks or homework: > The supporting activities in the Activity Book or Grammar and Writing Workbook > Practice Extra activities and games > Student-made photos or videos to answer a Big Question link or Time to Talk! question or give their opinion about a text > Creative Journal activities—you can ask students to share their work in the next class! > Home-School Connection Activities for students to do with their parents such as Monthly Blasts and Study Guides

WHAT’S ECOTOURISM?

Ecotourism means to travel and respect nature at the same time. Sometimes, tourists damage the environment. For example, big hotels on unspoiled parts of the coast can pollute the water and create problems with trash. They don’t respect the plants or animals, and they use too much water! Ecotourism cares more about nature.

Some tourists like to volunteer. Volunteering is when you work for free to help. Volunteering is not as relaxing as sightseeing, but you can learn a lot!

T Think Why do people choose ecotourism vacations?

At our rainforest reserve in Brazil, we protect A nature. Every year, the rainforest gets smaller and smaller. But we work very hard planting new trees for the future. Our scientists study the trees, the plants, the insects, and many other animals in the rainforest. We also teach people how to protect this habitat. It’s a lot of work, but you can also have fun. You can try whitewater rafting when you’re here, or you can go hiking through the rainforest with our tour guides. It’s the experience of a lifetime! For more information, see our website:

One Day in Cape Town

B B B B

Today, we arrived in a city called Cape Town, in South Africa. In the morning, we went up to Table Mountain in a cable car. It’s called Table Mountain because it’s ﬂat at the top like a table. The coolest thing about being at the top was seeing some really cute, funny animals. They are called dassies, and they look like huge hamsters! Later, we went to Cape Point. This is an awesome place to visit because it’s the place where two oceans meet— the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. The color of the water is incredible. Our guide told us that there are lots of sharks here. We didn’t see any.

Improve Your Writing: because We use because to show why things happen or why people feel or think something. Cape Town is great because the landscape is beautiful.

The

Top of the World By Aaron Burkholder

Ah, look! This is a picture of me with an archeologist. One day, I saw Father talking with this strange man. The man explored the ruins in the forest, like I always did when I was a girl. But he was very slow and made drawings in his notebook. Of course, I watched him. He was the ﬁrst person from outside our village who I had ever seen. “Can I go exploring with you?” I asked the man.

Aaron Burkholder is from Ohio, in the U.S.A. He has worked as a writer and editor for many years. His interests include writing, creative arts, traveling, languages, and technology.

He and my father laughed. “Don’t worry, Sisa,” the man said. “I will be back.” A few years later, the archeologist returned to Machu Picchu with many other men. They cut the jungle away from the walls. Here’s a picture I took of them. Many of the men were from Lima, the capital of Peru.

“Grandma!” the little girl said. “Tell me about these photos.” “Where did you ﬁnd that photo album? Oh, all right. Look—this is the village when I was a little girl … .” *** I grew up on the slopes of the mountain, close to the forgotten city of Machu Picchu. In those days, the jungle covered the old city. Everyone in the village knew about the ruins, but we never thought much about them. My father was a farmer, and he grew food here h on the mountain. I explored while he worked, climbing on the ruins and walls of the w old o city and hiding between the vines. Look at this photo. It’s the view from high L up u on the mountain. See, there is our village far f below. It looks tiny! It has changed a lot. It’s I much bigger now. In those days, the only way w to get there was by walking for a day through the forest. One time, I was walking along a trail near my village with my father, and he told me, “Walking in these mountains is the best thing in the world. You can see the whole world from here.” “The whole world! It’s beautiful,” I smiled. But I knew there was more. And I wanted to go and see it all.

T Think Why do you think the archeologist comes

to the village? “You wouldn’t believe it,” they told me. “In Lima, there are big roads with cars. And there are tall buildings. There are banks and stores and schools. And there are so many people, they couldn’t all ﬁt in a picture!”

“Schools?” I asked. “I want to go to school.” The men looked surprised. “There’s no school here? Then, we will build you one.” A year later, there was a new school in my village. And that’s how I started to study. At school, we studied math, science, writing, and history. But my favorite subject was languages. I loved learning languages. The ﬁrst languages I studied were English and French. 107

World

Att tthis time, many of the villagers stopped farming A aand nd started to help visitors visit the ruins. My father opened a hotel. I practiced speaking with the ope visitors; taking them up the mountain to see the vis ruins ru was good practice. Here’s a picture of me at the hotel in my last year H of o school. I wanted to go to college, but my father got very sick, so I stayed to help him with f the t hotel. When my father was an old man, he liked to sit at the front of the hotel and watch the construction of the new railroad. After he died, I stayed at the hotel. It didn’t seem right to sell it.

We were happy for many years with our guests and our children and our plans to travel the world. We imagined visiting different countries in Europe, where I could practice speaking all my languages. Your grandfather often spoke about his family in Italy. He missed his mother and father very much. He wrote them letters almost every day. He wanted me to meet them. When your mother was a girl, he told her stories about his childhood in Italy. Those stories made your mother laugh! But, then, your grandfather got sick, and now he is gone. The world is a very big place, and I’m old now. I don’t think I can travel alone. “Grandma,” asked the little girl, “how many languages do you speak?” When the railroad was ﬁnished, we started getting more and more visitors. Our hotel was always full. The village grew bigger and bigger, and much of the old community was lost. Some villagers felt sad about this. But I was always happy to talk to new people. At our dinners, I talked to all the guests—English, French, German, Italian, Russian—I loved it! One of the guests from Italy asked me to a dance. This was your grandfather. He loved me and Machu Picchu so much, he decided to stay. Here’s a picture of us when we got married.

“What, dear? Oh, many.” “And how many friends do you have from other countries?” “Many, many friends, dear child.”

T Think What can you learn from meeting new people?

“So you didn’t have to go see the world,” the girl said. “The world came to you.” ***

T Think Can you learn a lot living only in one place? How?

Sisa hugged her granddaughter, and they watched the moon rise over the whole world.
