Bmolloy Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Does ANYONE have these? In particular, I'm looking for the Geometry (2nd edition) set, but I'd be thrilled with the Algebra ones as well. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look for them? I've googled multiple times with no luck. Is there a way to contact the publisher or Mr. Jacobs himself?

EKS Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I have them. I got them about six years ago used on Amazon and at the time they were rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmolloy Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 Since they are out of print would be it be possible to copy them? I'd be willing to purchase them if you're interested in selling the originals or a copy if that would be legal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKS Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Here's a link: Transparency Masters Be sure to scroll down a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmolloy Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 Thank you. I may get that for DS#2 to use in a few years. Right now, I'm needing the Geometry 2nd edition transparencies. I've messaged that store to see if they might have them as well. Thank you for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've messaged that store to see if they might have them as well. Thank you for your help. It's really hard to find anything to do with 2nd edition geometry these days. Also, I forgot to mention in my initial post that I own the algebra masters, not the geometry ones. Sorry about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmolloy Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 Love it that he responded to my email! :) Unfortunately there are not any resources out there other than what can be found used. I've done pretty well and have 2 student editions, the test masters, and a teacher's manual. I think we'll pull through. I found that http://www.motherofdivinegrace.org/ has a syllabus for $10. But that was all. Thanks for your input. From Mr. Jacobs: Since receiving your previous email, I have been spending quite a bit of time looking to find some of the materials that I used in the classroom with the 2nd edition of Geometry (homework assignments, etc). Unfortunately, I stopped using that edition more than 10 years ago and, not seeing the need to keep them, seem to have thrown all of those materials away. The transparency masters of the second edition have long been out of print. I am sorry about this but am always glad to hear from home-schoolers and will at least try to provide help and moral support to you and your son along the way. With best wishes, Harold Jacobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKS Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 That's so cool that he responded! Maybe I should write him a fan letter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
