Robin in Tx Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Is there a TE or Answer Key for this book? Yes, I need one. (sigh...) Thanks, Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I have not found one...and I need it, too. :( I checked out one of Perrine's books from the library but decided not to purchase one for lack of a TM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigid in NC Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I found mine on Amazon, used. I bought the 7th edition -- titled Instructor's Manual to Accompany Sound and Sense. ISBN 0155826093. ~Brigid:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mktkcb Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Sonlight uses this in their British lit. Here's the url for the right page http://www.sonlight.com/530-00.html . Look down the list of books...the answer key is about the 3rd one down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelodyInTx Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 What editions do you all have? I just found a 3rd or 4th edition at a used book store for 50 cents so I picked it up. I really like the questions after the readings. Thought provoking...but I think I will need a TM as well. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigid in NC Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 The "Instructor's Manual" as it is titled is definitely not an easy turn-key answer book. There are no answers laid out in 1., 2., 3. form. For each poem there is a dialogue about the poem, which in some cases does answer some of the questions. I think it will be helpful, but it is not an answer key. I am using the 7th edition. I needed to buy a "class set" for the co-op class I teach, and there seemed to be plenty on Amazon for $.01 or a bit more (plus $3.99 shipping:cool:) I have one copy of the 5th edition. There is not much difference in the two. I think Sound and Sense is like Perrine's Literature - Structure, Sound, and Sense -- they have both been around forever. Perrine actually passed away in 1995, so revisions are by others who have taken up the task. http://blog.smu.edu/smumagazine/2007/12/33_million_gift_extends_profes.html ~Brigid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaceyL in Canada Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 ...edition of Sound and Sense (the one from Sonlight) and could loan it to you for the cost of postage if you'd like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaceyL in Canada Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 ...if you would like me to send it to you, e-mail me privately as I don't think I'll be using these new boards much--much less user-friendly to me than the old style!

Jodi-FL Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 do any of you have a schedule of sorts that you would recommend? up til now I've just been using it for poems and short stories to go along with the poet/author we've been studying, but it is full of so much good stuff (it was one of my favorite classes in college) that I think I want to make it a main part of our studies next year. how are you using it? one section/week? I still have my syllabus from the class, I might have to dig that out..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigid in NC Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I have just started Sound and Sense, but I have used Perrine's Literature: Structure, Sound, and Sense in past years, and have just assigned a chapter a week. Some weeks, if the other classwork is heavy, we skipped reading for a week. My experience with the Perrine books is that the chapters can be read sequentially OR in whatever order you want. Each chapter is very self-contained. So I would just launch in! I think the Perrine books are very user-friendly. But they don't have the teacher hand-holding guides that I wish they did. ;) Good luck! ~Brigid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
