Tonia Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Does anyone know if there is any way to tell how a used Teacher's edition will match up with the current workbooks? I'd hate to spend $ on them only to find out they don't match up. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TracyR Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 This is my guess, and I'm searching for the answer right now. But I think what you have is it. A/O is still working on their different levels of Horizons and I haven't seen any new editions come out yet. I know the Algebra 1 is coming out this fall. I haven't used Horizons til now, my 14yr old is using their Pre Algebra and she really likes it. But as long as I've been following Alpha Omega products. I haven't seen them revise a Horizon product yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonia Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 Thanks, Tracy. I've been searching the AO website looking for an answer but haven't found one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shan.non Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Look up the ISBN number for the current teacher's manual and see if it is the same as the teacher's manual that you have/plan to buy used. That is what I did and I was able to buy the TM off Amazon for under $5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonia Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) Look up the ISBN number for the current teacher's manual and see if it is the same as the teacher's manual that you have/plan to buy used. That is what I did and I was able to buy the TM off Amazon for under $5. Where did you find the ISBN number? I'm looking at the AO website but can't find that info anywhere. Ignore me .... I checked Christianbook.com and found the ISBN numbers there. Thanks for the help! Edited April 5, 2012 by Tonia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerryAtHope Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Mostly they just change the cover or make minor adjustments. I've used TM's with a different cover (different edition) than the workbook, and it works out fine. I emailed AO about this once and they told me my older edition TM would work fine with newer addition Workbooks. Email or call them & ask to be sure, but I bet it works out.

TracyR Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 This is the answer I got back from Alpha Omega.. "It should work out fine since we haven't made any major revisions to Horizons math since the initial releases. We do fix the answers for a problem or two each year so just be on the lookout for a few things that don't match up. The print date is on the back of the book just above the bar code. That would tell you if it is a "classic" or a recent printing" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shan.non Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I used 1st grade and only bought the first TM and the printed student pages rather then the 2nd TM since I don't need answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
