CD's

Sing and Connect (audio CD)- K - 1 It appears that all teachers (Grades K - 5) received this CD. Should we have IC's??? collect these CD's from the upper grade teachers and possibly keep some on campus in the leveled libraries for all to access? Do we need to keep some for our future campuses?

Student Book Audiotext CD Audio of main selections in student book. Students can also access this exact audio option through Think Central (student ebook). Audiotext CD is in the process of being copied to the Central Server. Teachers also have the option to play the audio CD's in their portable CD players and on computers.

Assessment on CD (Grades 1 - 5) ExamView for Reading. Since we already have ExamView for Math, we simply had to copy the reading questions onto the server. Teachers will now be able to access both the reading and math questions from our existing ExamView application. The reading question banks (Grades 1 - 5) are ready for teachers to access.

WriteSmart (Grades 2 - 5) HMH has confirmed that the WriteSmart CD we received can not be opened on Macs. They are working on a solution to the problem. WriteSmart is available online through Think Central for grades 2 - 5.

Teacher One-Stop Planner (Grades K - 5) This resource will not be uploaded to the server. This CD is another way that teachers can access the TE and plan lessons. The features offered are similar to what can be accessed on Think Central.
