Hey Everyone, Our district is on schedule to ³adopt² new K-12 Language Arts texts. We are hoping to buy the ³complete package² to meet all of the state/district standards and benchmarks, PLUS allow for lots of differentiation. Of course, we will look at Glencoe, Houghton-Mifflin, Great Source, etc. We will pay close attention to the new 6-12 McDougal Little offering due out soon. We are already torn between wanting consistency in instruction and assessment AND the BIG BUCKS involved in buying a huge anthology and all of the bells and whistles that teachers may or may not use. I am sure that many of you have been through the adoption recently, and I would love to hear your thoughts on the subject. As we are rapidly growing district, it is very hard to keep everyone on the same page/have enough materials, and that fact carries weight in our decision making process. THANKS, Joanie in Iowa. _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
