Synopsis

The Teacher Handbooks provide background about language arts, history and geography, visual arts, music, mathematics, and science. Each handbook has been written to look like the Core Knowledge Sequence. For each section in the Sequence, there is a matching section in the handbooks. The handbooks combine authoritative background information of the sort found in encyclopedias, with teacher tips and review suggestions of the sort found in teacher guides. They pinpoint the main idea for each section, outline the key facts, and provide valuable suggestions as to how to teach and review the topic. They tell you what students need to learn and what they will learn in subsequent grades. They define key vocabulary words, point out cross-curricular connections, offer teaching tips and assessment suggestions, and list books and websites for additional reading. Instructional Masters: A collection of worksheets, maps, and charts that can either be copied and distributed to students or made into transparencies and displayed using an overhead projector. The instructional masters are printed on loose-leaf, three-hole-punched sheets of acid-free paper, and are included with the purchase of a Teacher Handbook. Instructional masters for math or reading are not included, because reading and math programs generally come with their own supplementary materials. The Instructional Masters are shown in the Teacher Handbook next to the topic they support.
