Also, if I have close to $20 worth of orders, I will male it $20 so I can $10 in free books. I THINK, THINK if u put in 2 $20 seperately, you will $10 free to spend w EACH order right then.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16549090181029574845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769238921977026142.post-63179287899850992182013-04-24T19:17:07.517-04:002013-04-24T19:17:07.517-04:00This year, I have converted to a completely digita...This year, I have converted to a completely digital Scholastic experience! I send an email to parents. as well as posting it on my blog, when I open the ordering window. They pay directly through the Scholastic site so that means no money collection for me! Yay! When a parent places an order, I get an email. Scholastic saves all of the orders until I want to "check out." The parents are ordering lots of Storua books and I get major money toward new books! <br />Oh! Also, make sure you sign up as a school representative. That way, kids from other classes who don't participate in book ordering can order from you and you get the points!Lauren Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03690016667877484427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769238921977026142.post-18837860484165314002013-04-23T20:49:29.587-04:002013-04-23T20:49:29.587-04:00Grandma's make great customers!

After reading your post I quickly went to my clubs online site to check out Storia and to see if we had the option of parents placing orders on line. I was not able to find either :( If I happened to miss something and other Canadian teachers know about these options - please let me know! Great post!

As I was reading, I thought it might be easier if you typed a list of your book picks and just referenced the catalog and page number where that book could be found, you could staple it to the front of the order forms and save yourself a lot of time!

Spending the last 5-10 minutes of the day looking through the catalog WITH the kids - and having them circle 5-6 of their favorites! {what parent can say NO to a kid asking for a book??}<br /><br />3. Instead of Birthday Treats - I do Birthday Books! The birthday boy/girl brings in a book to share with the class and then donates it to the class library (with a dedication inside: "This book is for Jack's 6th birthday!" Scholastic offers the best deal, so a lot of my parents buy the birthday book from them!<br /><br />4. I only place ONLINE orders! This is nice because every parent that orders gets a $5 coupon back from Scholastic and I get $3 for each parent order. SCORE!<br /><br />This year I've been building up my Listening Center library! It SO nice to not have to spend my own money! Yay for Scholastic! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03323783545672486670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769238921977026142.post-35423743473460754622013-01-21T19:46:25.785-05:002013-01-21T19:46:25.785-05:00I do the same thing with an attached letter but I ...I do the same thing with an attached letter but I include the reading level as well since I have a PP3 to 5th grade level in my room.

Thanks for your post. <br /><br />I do buy books with my own money, and save up points for bigger things. I have gotten two laptops. I buy those dollar books in classroom size sets. Reading buddies will read them to us, each kiddo gets one for their reading box for a time, and I can devise lessons and everyone has a book to look at. I also check out Honey Bee. Sometimes you need to go younger to find the books that are just right for your kids.<br /><br />Terri<br /><a href="www.merrykinderkapers.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">KinderKapers</a> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
