I remember the holiday-themed cartoons at my last school where it was always pretty obvious what the result would be, but at least the kids could self-check. I may be in touch in August.

here’s a good link with regional office numbers: http://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/si/rp/

The California Association of Regional Occupational Programs and Centers would be another good place to gather information:

I also have one that is called Graphing Fun (yellow book with a frog on it), but I can’t seem to locate either one of these books at the moment – hopefully they turn up soon.

Some of them probably wouldn’t work out, but I think that might lead to some valuable learning/discussions too. Also, they might learn the importance of self-editing (my students don’t seem to think of doing this on a math problem).

Outta curiosity, while I wait by my mailbox, does it include graphs in all quadrants? It said “for beginners” which sounds like first quadrant only.
