<P><BR>There are a few texts on A2 which I am using with the after-school class, as well as the Duke tutorials. I have 15 students for about 3 hours/week.(2 sessions)</P>
<P>This is a grant program and at the time there is no $$ for textbooks nor do they have internet access, so I am doing ppt lessons taking appropriate material from the CMU, Gaddis, and Herbert books, as well as adapting some of the Duke step-by-step tutorials has been working so far. In the fall, I would like to start with A3 for some of these classes, but the only text so far is the Tebring Daly book which might be too advanced for this group. .. These are marginal learning students in an at-risk district and I am happy to say that so far, none have dropped out</P>
<P> </P>
<P>There was another book, the A3 cookbook which is seriously outdated</P>
