NEW!
Quick Flip for Understanding Response to Intervention (RTI),
developed by Pat Johnson, Edupress, 2010. As more and more schools are being
pushed to adopt the tiered RTI framework, this handy flip chart explains, in
easy to understand words, what is expected at each tier, with helpful
hints and handy sample forms to help teachers and administrators put it into
practice. Fortunately, one can probably use many of the products already on hand
for the various intervention tiers. My candid opinion is that competent teachers
will probably continue to teach creatively as they always have with materials
that have worked for them in the past. Unfortunately, the new paperwork
requirements may leave them less time for being creative in their planning. If
you want to make sure the materials you are using meet funding requirements, we
will soon have a page devoted to materials that meet the requirements for
various tiers.

Our normal office hours when we answer the phone are 10: 30 AM - 4 PM Monday -
Friday.
We answer email and ship at other times, but normally take Sundays off.
You can fax your purchase orders to 805-237-8639, but it's good to follow up with a phone call in a couple of days to make sure we got it, if you did not receive a delivery confirmation email.

and availability by
e-mail (barbsbooks@sbcglobal.net), since that gives us more time to prepare a thoughtful answer and
keeps us from playing phone tag. Please remember to put our email address in
your address book if you have a spam filter or you won't ever get your answer
unless you also leave a phone number. We cannot usually tell you immediately over the phone if a
book is here. We have to walk two blocks to check the warehouse, so I usually
have to call you back or email you anyway. We do check our e-mail frequently
throughout the day when we are at home. If we should be out, and you leave a
message on our answering machine, we sometimes cannot hear the phone number
clearly to return your call. Those are some reasons why we recommend you email
us first. If you want us to call you, please leave your phone number and time
zone.
When you do email us, please do not leave the subject blank or just say "Hi" or
"Hello" as the subject. We delete those before opening because a lot of spam
messages look like that.

your mail will be opened fast.
