August Book Bag 2009 First-Third

Special Note:

Each month, from August, 2009 through July, 2010, Teacher Book Bag will publish three Book Bags. They are:

Preschool through Kindergarten Book Bag

First through Third Book Bag

Fourth and Beyond Book Bag

All three monthly publications will have a general theme, but they will not overlap in activities.
Each one is distinct. You will not find a duplication of last year's Book Bags either.

We have made it possible for you to tailor your purchase according to your specific needs.

You may buy any of the Book Bags throughout the year individually for $2.49. At no time will
the price be lowered. At the end of the school year, they will remain at the affordable price of $2.49.

You may want to buy all three of a particular month's Book Bag. We will have those available at $4.99 for
the bundle. That's the same as buying two and getting the third free.

You may want to purchase a year's subscription to just one of the Monthly Book Bags.
Those subscriptions are available for $19.99.

You may also choose to buy the entire set of all three for the full year for $39.99. Again,
the prices will not be discounted at any time in the future. We make that decision based on the
responses from past customers.

This month's Book Bag focuses on six main areas. First, your child will explore seasonal adaptations and the reason for seasons. In the math section, he will practice graphing and place value skills. Incorporating our seasonal theme, your child will enjoy playing games to practice short vowel words and punctuation usage. He will pause to read and discuss books by author and illustrator Gail Gibbons. Next, what could be a better way to investigate the seasons than studying the art element of color? Finally, your child will practice handwriting and copywork skills as he reflects on this month's character trait: truthfulness.
