sewingmama Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 Well that lasted less then 5 minutes :lol: I totally splurged the last two times but thought to have a look "just to browse" ;) and ended up with things in my cart :lol: I'm so addicted to the dollar deals.

PhotoGal Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I'm pretty sure I got everything I need the last couple of sales :lol: You know there are always a few (or more than a few) more you really *need* right? {Not admitting how many I have ordered in the past...} Trying. not. to. look...

Ruthie in MS Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I love dollar deals! There are books I NEED on sale this time. YES! SCORE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d.g. Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 It looks like some books are in this sale that haven't been in the last several dollar sales. I'm really glad I saved back some of my windfall money now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitterpatter Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 TEACHER50 gave me 50 percent off last night. (Or, was it TEACHERS50...hmm. The former, I think.) :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallorie Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Thanks!! I used some I bought last time to teach a class for 1st and 2nd graders at co-op, worked out great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d.g. Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I don't believe the TEACHER50 code is working anymore. It won't let me use it, anyway, or any variation of it. Too bad, too... I had almost 30 ebooks in my cart... now to narrow down to a more reasonable budget... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondeviolin Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Okay... what'd you get that was different from the last few sales? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edeemarie Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Anyone know how long the sale goes? And any recommendations? I have never bought from Scholastic before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeintx Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 The sale ends the 18th, I think. I ordered: Sandwich Bag Science Coffee Can Science Soda Bottle Science Ready-To-Go Super Book of Outline Maps Poetry Projects with Pizzazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d.g. Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Oy... I have a TON of recommendations. Too many to link, but I'll try to use exact titles so it's easy to search. DS8 is currently doing Cursive Writing Practice Pages with a Twist after having done Cursive Writing Made Easy & Fun, and will follow up with Cursive Writing Practice: Inspiring Quotes and Cursive Writing Practice: Jokes and Riddles. The Hands-on History and Easy Make & Learn books are amazing, and we've liked the projects we've done from them so far. Enough of them line up with SOTW 3-4 that I'm not going to buy the activity guides for 3 & 4. Although they're higher-level (usually 4th or 5th grade and up) we've enjoyed the Read-Aloud Plays series so far. And again, they have many, many different books that line up with our history rotation, which reduces my need for the SOTW activity guides. Instant Habitat Dioramas was not a total bust... DS8 loved the worksheets, but wasn't keen on the coloring and detail required. The final projects looked very nice. Algebra Readiness Made Easy has been a complete hit so far. DS has done Gr. 1 & most of Gr. 2, and will be starting Gr. 3 soon. He can plow through one "packet" in a single sitting if I let him. I bought all of them, books 1 through 6 and book 7-8. Menu Math (2-3) has been good so far (just started, really). We'll use it all year as a fun supplement, then move on to the next book in 4th. We haven't started them yet, but there is a series of Analogies books that starts out teaching explicitly/step-by-step how to solve analogies. They're leveled 2-3, 4-5, and 6-8. From reading through them, they look fantastic. I have snagged quite a few map skills and geography skills books in these sales, but none of them stand out enough to mention. They are useful as a reference and for the occasional activity/project. I can't really review them yet, but I've picked up quite a few of the Pre-K Early Themes items for my not-yet-3yo DS. Guilty admission: I'm up to 99 ebooks now and 10 ePages, all purchased from dollar deals sales, some with discount codes on top of that. :blush: Why yes, I am a curriculum hoarder... ETA: The sale ends the 18th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeniebeenie6 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I got the Grammar Tales teaching guide and the Punctuation Tales teaching guide. The guides come with black and white copies of the books that can be colored. I own most of the other guides already. I also got Easy Make and Learn Projects: Northeast Indians. I don't see this one go on sale often. I already own the Southwest Indian one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondeviolin Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Here's what we've done in the past: We've enjoyed most of the Easy Make & Learn, Fresh & Fun and Hands On History. I imagine anything from those series would be nice. (We have them all, but haven't used them all.) Mother Goose Phonics and Mother Goose Math are fun extras. Tunes that Teach American History and Tunes that Teach Spelling are fun and do come with MP3 downloads. My five-year-old (who has worked through EM's Beginning Geograph) enjoyed Fun-to-Solve Map Mysteries this year as well. This sale, we will be buying: Adorable Wearables That Teach About the Human Body Adorable Wearables That Teach Early Concepts Amazing Animal Art Projects Easy Make & Learn: Animal Habitats Learn the Alphabet Arts & Crafts (for my toddler) Soda Bottle Science Coffee Can Science Sandwich Bag Science Ready-to-Go Super Book of Outline Maps ...and maybe a few Cursive items because we are planning on finishing up cursive next year.

nansk Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 It looks like some books are in this sale that haven't been in the last several dollar sales. Yes. I see atleast two that I wanted to buy and were never on sale before: Vocabulary Packets - Prefixes and Suffixes Vocabulary Packets - Greek and Latin Roots Algebra Readiness Made Easy have been a hit here too. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teeniebeenie6 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I loved this sale. I got a lot of books I didn't see in past sales and some that I skipped in the last sale. I love the Number Tales, Alphatales etc. teaching guides. They have printables of all the books in their series them. I'm excited about the Teaching with . . . books series as well. There were also a ton of good math and phonics resources available as well. What did you all get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeeterbug Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I got the Grammar Tales teaching guide and the Punctuation Tales teaching guide. The guides come with black and white copies of the books that can be colored. I own most of the other guides already. Thank you, thank you! I was looking at the individual books thinking how great some of them were, didn't realise the guides come with mini-book versions of all of them. Perfect! :hurray: I'm getting all of the guides: Grammar Tales, Punctuation Tales, Sight Word Tales, Number Tales, Alpha Tales. Great value!

warneral Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 oooh they have the fabulously funny fairytale plays - my dd loved doing this in public school. I'd like to arrange a play or two with the neighborhood kids with these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripe Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) I am surprised by the books I found on there, such as A Fresh Approach to Teaching Punctuation and Grammar Study. Also Making Revision Matter. These seem somehow like Brave Writer to me at first glance. Edited May 31, 2012 by stripe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
