bnwhitaker Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Do you like the CD-Rom? I was thinking of getting this used but everyone seems to jut have the book. Wondering if the CD is worth getting it new. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnwhitaker Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 Anyone who got the book that comes with the CD?? Do you like the cd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanabug Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I found it easier to print the activity pages from the CD since it can be difficult to get the book to lay flat on a copier. Lana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnwhitaker Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 OHHHHH, so is the cd only the book but on cd? All of the new galloping the globe books say they "come with a cd-rom". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dscampbell1979 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I recently picked up a copy of this and the cd is just the book and a few bonus pages. Not sure if you have had a chance to check out the book yet but honestly I am not real impressed with it. For starters there is a HUGE list of core resources. If you were to purchase these all used it would set you back a couple hundred dollars. The projects are also lacking IMHO. The literature lists look like they will be good but I'm not sure they aren't something you could put together yourself using google. The activity pages in the book are crosswords, mazes, etc. not really anything special. Have you checked out Expedition Earth from Confessions of a Homeschooler?

bnwhitaker Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 :) The "extras list" is why Im looking into galloping the globe. Im actually looking for something with the list for the lit. for each country. I can get the book for around $11ppd and resell when Im done. I just got tired of looking for more good books for each place. I'm doing the Expedition earth and we like it just wanted more options for our reading. Thanks for telling me about the cd. I was hoping that is what the answer was cause I wanted to get the used cheap book! The extra cd was throwing my thinking off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
