Beth in SW WA Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I'm wondering if I should take it into Kinkos and print out a nice spiral-bound TM for myself. I wonder what that would cost. I'm pre-reading and studying and its a hassle to constantly scan through the answers/essays on the computer. What do other Omni moms do? Thanks!!

Michelle in MO Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 One year I had Office Max do the printing, and then I three-hold punched the sheets and put them in a three-ring binder. The next year I just printed the sheets out at home as we did the book. I never could figure out why VP didn't just print out a regular teacher's manual. Granted, it probably would have to be two larger books (i.e., one for first semester and one for second semester) instead of one book, but I don't like to read things on my computer screen! You pay extra for the TM anyway; if they wanted to charge even more, I would have paid them more for the privilege of a bound book. I think there were only a couple of aids on the TM CD that I found to be necessary on CD-ROM format; the one I specifically remember was the grade calculator at the end. Even that I didn't use, because we didn't do every book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorningGlory Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I'm wondering if I should take it into Kinkos and print out a nice spiral-bound TM for myself. I wonder what that would cost. Beth, if you decide to have it printed at Kinkos, would you post the approximate cost on this thread? I realize that the price would vary by location, but it would give me an idea. It would be nice to be able to plan for this cost in advance. Thanks! Jetta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth in Central TX Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 We don't do all of the books, so I just print out the teacher's pages for the books we are doing. I do this as part of my Sunday night preparation for the coming week's schedule. If we were doing most of the book, then I would go to Kinko's and get it printed. I'm thinking about doing this for Omnibus II next year. However, I would just have Kinko's print it out for me, and I would punch it with my Circa punch and make it into a Circa notebook. HTH!

Beth in SW WA Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 Thanks, gang. I'll take the cd in and print it. That also gives me a second copy of the book, which is not a bad thing. I'll let you know the price. To be continued.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonshineLearner Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Remember your teacher discount..... Also, I love comb binding all my stuff. I have a binder at home...and pages put on big combs are pretty easy to use.....(and inexpensive:-) Carrie:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naturalmom Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Did you get an estimate on the cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth in SW WA Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Did you get an estimate on the cost? No, I decided to print out selective pages of the CD here at home and just 3-hole punch them myself. I have an Omni 1 binder that I have been assembling over the last year, with odds & ends. Sorry!!

Karenciavo Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I think it would be pretty expensive. Most places charge to rip from disk, then there's the color copies, & binding. You could call your local Kinkos or office supply store to get a quote naturalmom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughing lioness Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Thanks for this post! Sounds silly but the TM is why we bogged down on Omni II this fall. Our computers are upstairs and we do the bulk of our h.s. downstairs. It gets really disruptive. This is definilty a "Can't see the forest for the trees" moment in my life. Anyway, thanks for the clarity!! We are back on track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
