I had to let you know how much I love your Spotlight on America series! I homeschool my children and we picked up "Colonial America" while in Williamsburg last year. The kids LOVE the format, I love the teaching tips and booklists--we have bought most of the series and have planned out history studies around them:) THANKS!

—Jane Binford

I have an 18 year old son who is autistic. I ran across one of your reading comprehension books at a local store, and just loved it! I have spent a lot of money on different workbooks and have not been satisfied with them, but this one is GREAT! I just ordered more. It is the first reading comprehension book that actually stresses drawing inferences. It is practical and a pleasure to use. Thank you!!

—Judy Phelps

I did not know you can purchase the book in the form of an ebook. This is so cool as a teacher. I needed the guide soon and I thought I would have to wait days for it. I already have so much stuff in my classroom having the book as an ebook instead of adding another item in my classroom is wonderful. Love it and I love your site.

—Lesa Warrick-Thomas

I absolutely adore e-books! The books are downloaded within seconds which is sure quicker than a trip into the city!

—Lisa Depratt

I just LOVE E Books! They are so convenient and immediate, obviously. However, the "green" aspect is also a real plus. Besides, who wants to lug around all those books? How much easier to click and find? Thanks and keep them coming. The quality is great.

—Karen Rende

I love the fact that most of your products are available as e-books. Cuts down on having to find a place to store the books

—Kendall A. Childs

I was so excited to see that you have ebooks. This will really help me to stay more organized and doesn't take any additional space on my shelf. Great idea!

—Elizabeth Morales

This was my first visit to Teacher Created Resources. What a wonderful and stress-free visit. The site was user friendly and downloading the eBooks was simple. For one that can be computer challenged--what a painless experience. Thank You.

—Brenda Lane

I purchased and downloaded the Laugh & Learn Grammar from your website and have been using it daily as a "fun break" for a 7th and 10th grader. This week I needed to reinforce our regular grammar subject for tests and eliminated the Laugh & Learn worksheets to compensate. These two boys were so disappointed!! They really enjoy the worksheets and what a great learning tool!! Grammar is a subject we struggle with at times, especially boys I think, and for them to be so disappointed that we were not doing the Laugh & Learn Grammar this week speaks volumes!! Thanks for such a great product and so engaging for any age group. KUDOS!! to you all for such great products...

—Kathy Loving

Thank you TCR for being a last minute life saver once again! I needed two quick Literature Guides for next week and you had both of them, what a time saver! I love your site, it's fantastic!

—Mary McGalloway

Dear Customer Service,

I called yesterday afternoon to place a very small order, and must have said how anxious I was to receive the workbook. Why? Because today, within 24 hours of placing the order, my UPS driver showed up with the ordered items!

I just wanted to say thank you for having wonderful teaching materials, and more importantly, for being SO professional, SO dependable, and SO easy to recommend.

—Ellen

Thank YOU !!!

Wow, this was so convenient!  Usually I buy hard-cover books, then have to go through the time-consuming pain of scanning them myself into PDF. The quality is also a large file, and not as good as the authentic original from the publisher of course. I am so pleased to be able to purchase books in PDF format... since I use these on a laptop projector and the hard-cover doesn't work for that.

Thanks!

—Vincent

Thanks, these e-books are a fantastic idea!

—Amber Dawkins

Dear TCR,

I'm a teacher with limited resources. I have a multilevel international classroom and many ESL students. Your teacher created resources have made my life so much easier. I finally found something on the internet that is useful, creative, reliable and affordable. My endless hours of surfing the internet looking for ideas are over. I can find almost everything I need on your website. Thanks so much!!

Sincerely,

—Monica, 4th and 5th grade teacher

I just wanted to let you know how much we have enjoyed your lessons. My daughter never had any interest in history, until we tried Mysteries in American History. I have never seen her so excited over history! She was even looking up more information on the computer. Thanks!

—Kristina

Just wanted to say that I compared TCR with a few other websites/ed materials and guess who I stayed with once again? You all are just wonderful and I thank you for the materials from you that I have used in 15 yrs of teaching. As always, thanks for your great sources and customer service:) Sincerely,

—Joy

Thanks, I love all that you have created at a great price. Hopefully in the future I will come and purchase again.

Travel Through: China is geared towards the elementary aged child but could easily be read aloud or used as a picture book for younger children. Beautiful photographs make you feel as if you are right there [in China]. The layout of the pages is very visually appealing with just enough information included that it will not overwhelm children with focusing problems. Also, the font size is large and in a style that is kid friendly.

The book covers many topics such as geography, culture, animals, environment, exports, and much more. In addition to facts included on many of the pages, there are also pretend journal entries and emails from a child that lives in China. This helps to make it more realistic for children and feel as if they are there experiencing it themselves. There is a list of twenty activities at the end of the book to extend the learning of many of the different topics covered.

Animal Lives: Dolphins and Porpoises is geared towards the elementary aged child but could easily be read aloud or used as a picture book for younger children, making it a great book for families with children of different ages.

Wonderful photographs are included throughout the book. [Also,] the layout of the pages is very visually appealing with just enough information included that it will not overwhelm children with focusing problems.

Children will learn about the life cycle of dolphins and porpoises, how they grow and learn, where they can be found, and threats to these species. In addition, Animal Lives: Dolphins and Porpoises is packed with little facts that will teach many more interesting things about dolphins and porpoises. This is one of those books that is a great resource when doing a unit study or just to pull off the shelf and read.

Thank you! We run a school for low income children in rural Cambodia. Your ebooks have been such a help! It takes us months to get paper books through the mail and with your ebooks we have them in minutes. Keep up the good work!

—Lisa, from Jay Pritzker Academy

Thank you so much. The geometry book is fantastic. Your materials seem to get better every year. And thank you so much for the terrific service. You folks are awesome.

—Dianne Delaney

Year-Round Themes, Going Places is an invaluable resource for both new and experienced teachers. This book was obviously designed by someone who has a deep understanding of the best methods for educating young children. Teachers will love how complete and well-organized the material is, children will love learning through engaging hands-on activities, and administrators will appreciate the attention given to standards and benchmarks. The CD-Rom is a wonderful bonus. A good investment.

—Barbara Long, Front Street UMC Playschool

Thank you so much for the monthly calendars. The third grade crew love them. We use them for cross curriculum activities. The kids love to do research and present their information.

Learning how to edit one's writing is difficult for second grade students but this book [Daily Sentence Editing] helped my students focus on the necessary skills to edit writing effectively. This was evident in their end of the year writing samples.

—2011 Teachers Choice Award Committee Member

I would recommend this book [Daily Sentence Editing] to other second grade teachers because it helps students really practice their editing skills and can be used on the smart board easily. It would be a great reference book for the teacher resource section of the media center.

—2011 Teachers Choice Award Committee Member

I just had to take the time to write this e-mail and say THANK YOU!

I ordered your series on Building Writing Skills (Words to Sentences/Sentences to Paragraphs/Paragraphs to Stories/Paragraphs to Essays). They are fantastic! In fact, I can honestly say that I got more ideas to use in a classroom from these books than I have spending over 15 years sitting in courses of staff development!

Thank you once again for publishing actual books that include clear, motivating, ready-to-use lessons for teachers to use in the classroom!

—Mr. B.

I have reviewed your programs Daily Sentence Editing and find them to be an outstanding series. They are so simple and clear in their presentation and yet offer such a wide range of educational learning tools. I am truly impressed.

—--Joan Tanenhaus, Closing The Gap

I am thrilled with the material I purchased from your site (Literacy Activities in Science and U.S. History Little Books Famous Events). First, it was so helpful to be able to preview these items on your website. That saved me from ordering something inappropriate for my child's skill level. The books of full of facts written in an easy to read and concise manner. Plus, the hands on activities that accompany each unit make the learning so much more enjoyable and I believe my son will retain more of the info. because he has something tangible to go along with the reading. The bonus---now I'm the smartest mom on the block!!

—Karen Rupert

What a wonderful book [Computer Activities Through the Year]! I look forward to browsing through all the other Computer books that you offer.

—Carol

—Dianne Funkhouser

—Laurie

I want to share how much I love your hot air balloons materials! They are colorful and cheerful without being overwhelming. I have purchased almost every item, and multiples of some things, and I can see myself using this theme for years to come. I like the way your team has worked to put detail into the hot air balloons - they are not too childish for upper elementary students and beyond. Thanks for creating this line.

—Joy Brogan, 3rd grade teacher

You are awesome (TCR AND you personally!!!). Thank you for understanding...this is probably the third time I've asked to reactivate the downloads, all for similar reasons -- and each time TCR has been very gracious about it. Thank you again for making my life easier!!!
