pjssully Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 So... I have decided on the Miller/Levine Biology and I am wondering what the difference is between the dragon fly book and the McCaw book. Is there a significant difference? I have a copy of the dragonfly so if I went with the news one I would have to buy 2 books as I am teaching 2 plus the teacher edition. That will get pricey. But if there is a big benefit to using the new one, I will do it. Looking for feedback Thanks VB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happypamama Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) I went with the dragonfly edition because I got a great deal on it and its supporting materials. Most of the info isn't going to have changed, except for a couple of chapters. Edited May 25, 2016 by happypamama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-rap Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 We went with the Macaw because that's what lined up with all of their online resources, which we ended up using a lot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom22ns Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 There was a significant change to the section on classification. That is the only really big change that I know of. The Macaw book has been around long enough to find used now. I'd go for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
