Triumph Learning
Christopher came home with a "New York Coach JUMPSTART Grade 7" test prep from Triumph Learning today.
It has 3 sample Grade 7 tests, all printed in the same font as the real tests.
No answers accompany the booklet, of course. So it looks like I'll be taking 3 sample New York state grade 7 math tests, seeing as how Triumph Learning doesn't sell stuff to parents.
Apparently this booklet is not the 11-dollar booklet we paid for a few weeks ago. That one I have yet to see. I keep asking Christopher about it; he says they've got it, but haven't done anything with it.
I'm guessing the smart move here is.....track down the Venn diagram website & write some Venn diagram problems.
ta-ta!

"Glencoe Top Secret Test Prep"
I found this:
http://www.glencoe.com/catalog/index.php/program?c=1679&s=1921&p=2718&v=NY
oh wow
you are now seriously on top in Googling skills
I bet that book's fantastic.
AND....it only costs $7.98??
Why did we pay $11 for whatever the school bought for us, which I assume is from Glencoe??
Yet another mystery.
oh yay
I can order student materials, but not teacher materials
I think I'll pass
Pretty maddening that they only ship teacher material to school addresses.
But then there is this seemingly contradictory note:
Online purchase capability is only available for U.S. Educators. We can only ship to U.S. school addresses. Please call customer service (1-800-334-7344) for deliveries to non-school addresses.
What does deliveries to non-school addresses mean. Will they ship after all if you call?

Just because I have TIME TO BURN, I should call up and see.
I love all these publishers colluding with school districts to keep educational material out of the grasping hands of the public.
If regular people got hold of this stuff.....LOOK OUT.
I think I'll add up the money I've spent on middle school workbooks.
Right now.
I really should hammer Glencoe.
This is ridiculous.
Their Parent Student Study Guide is fantastic, and their test prep booklet last year was very good I thought.
These things shouldn't be Top Secret.
Isn't "History Department, NYU" a school address. :)

Good lord.
That never crossed my mind.
This is why you're a math professor & I'm not.
