GEN: Book Companies that Provide AR Disks for Free

[Judy Meadows <psj000@MAIL.CONNECT.MORE.NET>]

Dear LM_Netters:

I just learned today that I will be getting a $500 Missouri State Teacher's
Association  grant to buy low level Accelerated Reader books and a test
disk for use in a program I will have here called "Reading Partners."  In
this program sixth graders will read to and be read to by first graders who
will then take AR tests on the books read.

I had picked out a set of early readers from Follett that I could get
including processing and test disk for less than $500.00.  However, in
looking on Follett's TitleWave, I find that this set is no longer available
and that nearly all of the sets currently available are too expensive to be
covered by my grant.  Also, most of the sets have too wide a range of
levels for my purpose.

I want to look into buying some low level AR books from one of the
companies that will supply the test disk with them at no extra charge.  Can
someone tell me what some of those companies are and if they have had good
luck in buying from them?

Thanks in advance!

Judy
