I am really enjoying the new teacher's guide. It is very easy to understand and more user friendly than the last year's guide. - Kelly Bacot

I agree with you completely, Kelly. The updated teachers guide was much more user friendly and engaging for the students.

This is my first year with AEIOU. My students really enjoyed the Graphic Story Adventures curriculum. They had fun keeping up with their personal adventure notebooks. They have even started to check-out graphic novels on their own at the school library. Also agree with the above teachers. The teacher's guide was user friendly and I was able to plan well and differentiate easily. -Lauren Gudger
