[quote=Anonymous]Grade 5 teacher: I'm not a huge fan of textbooks. I don't use the adopted Reading anthology/workbooks. We read novels in class, which I buy on Amazon. I only use the Social Studies and Science books as "reference books" or additional sources to compare with the handouts I provide, which my students can highlight and annotate. I teach them how to keep these in three-ring binders. I do encourage my students to keep the EM Reference book on their desk during math, but it's quite limited, doesn't provide the needed content to address many of the questions my students have. Not having a decent math textbook to use as a resource is a huge problem, especially for new teachers who haven't amassed a large library of math materials over the years. A lot of the workbooks that my colleagues use are junk. They don't provide enough space for students to show their solutions.[/quote]
