Welcome to Year 3! Please note that throughout TOGO we will use the following levels color legend:
NEW Booklist Tools
The Static Booklists: We have begun by posting Static Primary Booklists (for each Year, Level, and Subject) in the Loom sections of your Year pages. Both Integrated and Spools owners will automatically be granted access to these lists: just sign into your account, select your year page, and scroll down to the Loom documents! You can copy and paste from these PDF Booklists, and they include an ISBN number, Amazon link, and WorldCat Library link for each book! Over the course of this winter, we will roll out Static Alternate Booklists for all four years in each Level and Subject to supplement your Static Primary Booklists. (These Static Alternate Booklists should also be especially useful for owners of older editions!)
The Dynamic Booklist: Our team is simultaneously working on 3,000+ book listings for the Shop, complete with the same ISBN numbers and links you will see on the Static Loom Booklists, so that you will have a Dynamic version of the Booklist to filter and browse according to year, unit, week, learning level, subject, TOG edition, and any other filter we can dream up! We will keep you posted on the progress of the Dynamic Booklist, but we didn’t want you to be surprised to see books appearing in the Shop over the next few months! Warning: Until the Dynamic Booklist is complete, we recommend using the Static Booklists on the Loom as your authoritative reference to all books used in your 2020-2021 Integrated or Spools editions, but feel free to browse the Dynamic Booklist and watch it grow!)
The Amazon Store: If you prefer not to use the booklists, you can find all the books available on Amazon grouped by Year, Level, and Subject at our Amazon Store.
Work-Study Program Reminder: Don’t forget that you can earn free curriculum and free curriculum upgrades through our Work-Study Program by sending book descriptions and reviews for the Dynamic Booklist. Openings are first-come, first-served until all books have been described and reviewed. After that, the opportunity will end, so be sure and open a ticket to ask about this!
