Textbook Ordering for Next Year
Meeting with Amparo SOON! MARCH 7, 2015
Dear Teachers,
It is that time of the year when we need to look at our materials for each subject area. I would like to meet with each one of you to see what we need to reorder. I will share a sign-up ordering schedule for ordering . I will put a hard copy in your mailboxes.
If you could list items we need to replenish(consumables), # of items depending on upcoming classroom size, and what items you do not want to reorder such as scholastic news magazines, it would help a lot when we meet.
For replenishing Foss Kits items, we have decided not to do that since some kits won't be reused next year in the upper grades. If you are starting with the same kit again next year in the lower grades and you need to replenish experiment items, do let us know.
Please look carefully at your consumables. Some of us have not used or will not get to the next leveled workbook so why reorder.
Also, are you using IXL Math or Reading A_Z regularly with your students??? Are your students using them at home because you have set-up accounts for them? If you feel you do not have time for your students to participate in these programs, that is money we can save. However, it depends on each teacher's needs.
If you have something you don't like or something new you would like to try, we can certainly discuss that.
Do you need any Teacher Manuals in a specific language that we didn't order for you last year?
We need to have this done before May. Start jotting down what you have and what you think you will need in numbers for next year.
Thanks Teachers! Amparo Farias
