*Michelle* Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 You can get the K-2 collection, 3rd-4th collection, or 5th-6th collection for $50 when you use the coupon code BIO. Shipping is $4.50. The deal is good until the end of August. The collections are priced at $178 before the discount. HTH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K&Rs Mom Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I was thinking about this when I got their email, but can't find any way to find out what titles are included. Is it like a "grab bag" so they're all different? It seems like a good deal unless it turns out to be classroom sets (5 of each title).

Or if it's mostly twaddle:tongue_smilie: LOL, there is that! I figure any books we already have or don't want can be used for birthday gifts and so forth. My oldest is just turning five, though, so the K-2 collection will be fine for us, I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BugsMama Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 How do they "confirm your school"? when you are making an educator account? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Michelle* Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 How do they "confirm your school"? when you are making an educator account? When I went through checkout, there was a homeschooler option. I just clicked on that, filled in our school name and home address, and went through the normal billing process. I received an order confirmation number after checkout and an email confirmation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ailysh Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Thanks so much for this! My daughter is only two but already a book addict (she learned from the best). There's a good chance we already own many of these, but I can't resist. :lol: I'm awaiting the okay text from DH. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slipper Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I'd love to order one of these for the special ed classroom at my daughter's school. Does anyone know if it's possible to order one for myself and place another order for a second set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paula in MS Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Thanks for this! I was considering the 3-4 grade set...and now I'm definitely not! The problem for me was that there were a lot of boy books, and I have just one child-- a girl. Also there were about 10 books on a first grade level that she was never going to read. About 20 out of the 50 were interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
