I don't want to get everyone's expectations up............ teaching Alice for the first time, I found resources on you tube, in text, on the internet, and within my own students as they took the course. What I have found is a variety of resources and information in a variety of places, so my offer to send a teacher a copy of my recently completed unit puts all of the worksheets, teaching videos, and tests that I used in one package. I guess that caught on, because I have sent out almost 50 dvd's to date, and will continue to honor all requests. That includes 5 DIFFERENT countries, and it's kind of a blast to send this to so many different places. My only hope is that you find this resource helpful in some way as you begin to aquaint yourself with this wonderful program. This dvd is a good starting point that will get you going. I will also send the disc to those that have suggested hosting this unit on a server. If there is a way to go online and pull down this folder with e!
 
 ase, I'm all for it. I don't know how to do that, but I do know how to burn and mail a DVD.

I look forward to your input, and possibly some collaboration as we find ways to mee the needs of our teachers that are going to use this program.

Peace.
