NEM Teacher's Guide vs. Teacher's Manual
We are no longer selling the Teacher's Guide that includes the full student text for NEM 1. SM is switching to a shorter Teacher's Manual. The description from SM's site:
New Elementary Mathematics Teacher's Manual is specially designed for teachers. It contains a scheme of work with a weekly schedule listing the objectives of each lesson. It has answers to the Class Activities, along with occasional notes which explain the purpose of the activity and provide teaching tips. The guide has answers, teaching suggestions and detailed step-by-step solutions to the problems in the Challenger, Problem Solving and Investigation sections. These solutions often include alternate solutions and suggestions to the teacher for follow-up activities. The solutions for the Problem Solving sections also include the strategy and thinking skills needed to solve the problem. New Elementary Mathematics Teacher's Manuals will eventually replace all the Teacher's Guides. New Elementary Mathematics Teacher's Manuals for levels 1, 2 and 3A are now available.
Main differences between Teacher's Guide and Teacher's Manual:
The textbook will not be reproduced in the manual (hence the manual will be cheaper than the guide). The manual contains a scheme of work (not found in the Teacher's Guide)
Even though there is a teacher's manual available for NEM 2, we are still offering the NEM Guide at this time.
