[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the earlier poster who said that teachers create their own versions of textbooks, but they are crappier because they consist of glued in pages. That's what I have to do. I recreate the wheel and create pages with examples that kids glue in. I used to have kids take notes but some kids don't take notes well. So I am creating step by step examples and running them off on the copier for students to glue in. (Twice as much paper used - the notebook paper and the copier paper) The advantage is that students and parents have something solid to refer to. The disadvantage (besides the huge amount of time it takes me) is that students don't get needed practice taking notes. I guess ideally I would like for students to take notes but also have a well-written textbook to refer to if they still struggled. (I'm talking math.)[/quote]
