How can I purchase an extra textbook for home or an audio version?

In response to a parent request I am posting the contact information for the 
publisher of our current textbook.  The Prentice Hall Contact Number is 1-
800-
848-9500.  They will ask for the ISBN number of the textbook you are 
interested in purchasing.  The two audio products I found available are: 
Guided Reading on Audio CD, a chapter summary and Student Edition Audio CD, 
an audio version of the text.  We will cover 1 to 3 chapters in each of the 
Prentice Hall books we will use. The main textbooks are Inside Earth (0-13-
054075-7) and Weather & Climate  (ISBN 0-13-434494-4).  In the last quarter 
we will use The Sound Book, a paper back published by The Long Island Sound 
Keeper Fund, Inc.  1-800-933-SOUND OR 203-854-5330.  Students can read the 
Sound Book on line at http://www.soundkeeper.org/soundsite/default.asp

Access to the New York Times is available to students

New York Times Electronic Edition

 

Our school now has a subscription to the New York Times Electronic Edition.  
When you go to the site you see the actual newspaper pages.  It is easy to 
navigate from page to page and zoom in or out to change the size.  You can 
search for key words within the current issue or you can search for back 
issues.  Of course, you can print the articles.  It is a different site than 
the New York Times public web page.  Each site has its own advantages.  
Teachers can access this from school or home.  You can also give the web 
address to your students so they can use it for a homework assignment or 
project.
