Members Can Now Purchase “Suggested Works” at a Discount

In response to members’ requests for a convenient and affordable way to purchase the literary and informational texts suggested in our Maps, we are pleased to announce that those books can now be purchased at a competitive discount, and on a customized basis, through the Maps website.

As you know, the units in our new, Second Edition Curriculum Maps, contain lists of “suggested works” that our teacher-writers hand-selected for quality and grade-level appropriateness. These include nearly all of the “exemplar” texts listed in the Common Core State Standards and many, many more.

Now you can find a blue “ORDER BOOKS” button in the left-hand column of each unit. When you click on it an order form will appear, customized to that unit. You have the option of ordering all of the suggested texts for the unit, or either the literary or informational texts.  Or, for the teacher who has already selected which texts they plan to use, individual books can be ordered in the quantity needed. We worked with Schoolwide, Inc., our partner in this effort, to provide this custom-ordering function because we knew it would save precious resources.

We hope the ability to order our “Suggested Works” at a discount will help the many teachers, schools, districts, and states that are using our Maps to implement the CCSS.
