For PA, work that has been done throughout the year has to be collected, evaluated by a licensed educator, and submitted in a portfolio for our school district to analyze and scrutinize by the end of June.
I collected the work and handed it in yesterday. Now I can find the forms that I filed away and start filling them out for next year!
I had gone to the big curriculum fair that they hold in town every year and have picked up most of the texts that I need, but still must order the workbooks. I like the workbooks because it makes it so much easier to keep things together at the end of the year for the district. I do have to find something in a consumer or business math for my son. I had it in my hand at the fair, bought and paid for, but then I think that I set it down to look at books at the free exchange table. Someone made out good with the books I bought!
You know, it makes it a little harder to buy or trade online because some sites won't let you pick up the teacher manuals. Not that I need them mind you.
It does make correcting a lot faster though. I will be putting a few sites up that I use or browse over if anyone needs something. I'm always open to finding new (reliable) sites too.
