I am wondering if anyone knows of a Level I book similar to the Complete Pre-GED & Complete GED books published by Steck-Vaughn, which sell for approx. $20.00. It has been difficult to find affordable materials for our Level I students to purchase, since most materials for that level are sold by single subject. If a Level I student needs textbooks in reading, writing, and math, he or she will need to spend a minimum of $45.00, whereas our Level II and GED-Prep students are able to purchase a single book containing 5 subjects for only $20.00. This seems especially difficult, since our Level I students are often our most economically disadvantaged. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!
