Katheryn,

When you want to print the student guide, will it be two-sided or just
single recto (right-hand) pages?

Regardless, you'll have a problem with the page numbering if you want
to do it all in one book, since FM counts every page, so there is no
way to simply omit the Instructor pages and get the student pages to
be sequentially numbered.

One approach would be to have two books. The Student book would be a
stand alone document/book with either a single-sided or double-sided
layout as required. This ensures that the page-numbering will be in
the proper sequence. The instructor book would have two flows, A & B,
the A flow with the instructor info and the B with the student info.
The student info would be imported by reference (i.e. a text inset)
into the B flow from the Student "book" (or corresponding document in
the Student version of the book). 

The other trick in the instructor book is in your page layout to have
the text frames auto-fill in the proper flow and to maintain the same
page numbering as in the Student book. If you do a double-sized page
(i.e. if the student book is standard letter-sized then the instructor
page size should be ledger-sized), then you can design the layout as a
spread and this will keep the page numbering in sync with the Student
version. Set up the Master pages with two text frames, one for each
flow. You will need to play with the layout for duplex printing to
make sure that everything aligns (page numbers, headers/footers, text
frames themselves) as expected from the recto to verso pages.
