IE Survival Guide Standard II is the second in a series of three supplemental unauthorized booklets to the Instrumental Teacher's Guides. It is intended to be a help to the classroom teacher during their first year of implementation. These are my observations and experiences from my first year of teaching IE with helpful input from a teacher colleague. Each instrument begins with an introduction of the overall goal(s) of the instrument, followed by possible ways to teach the cover page, then aids for teaching each page. This booklet covers, Categorization, Numerical Progressions, Family Relations, Temporal Relations and Illustrations.
