Hi all,

hmm, it looks like a stalemate to me:

a) No book at all? (Peter Ruwolt's suggestion) - loses the advantage of
the kids having a set text to fall back on (not to be sneezed at)
b) Heinemann? This is our current text and I agree with Debra McDonald -
it doesn't seem to work with our kids either
c) Jacaranda? (Andrew Grimshaw) "i make the kids read it for homework -
it helps them get to sleep!" sounds like a loser to me
d) Potts? I haven't seen it but we have the IT 1&2 version here and if
the IP&M is similar in style and content, it seems to be much of a
muchness with Heinemann.

And then of course, 2006 is stumps for the current curriculum...

thanks anyway
