    TMW Media Group,
    a leading creator, producer and distributor of Educational Media Programs for Classrooms and Libraries, is proud to announce the release of over two hundred new titles in the Math, Science and Guidance areas.



    What makes our Math programming the most usable compared to many of the other programs on the market is that the concepts are taught entirely through step-by-step example problems of increasing difficulty. Each new concept is introduced to viewers in an easy-to-understand way and example problems are worked out step by step and line by line to completion. New releases includes programming in Basic Math (35 titles), Algebra (12 titles), Algebra II (15 titles), Trigonometry (9 titles), Calculus (17 titles), Unit Conversion (8 titles), Geometry (20 titles), and Physics (24 titles)

    Our new Science programs consist of the award-winning Show Me Science Series. Comprised of 84 programs and grouped into coherent subject areas of 8-16 titles each, Show Me Science covers animal life, astronomy, biology, chemistry, health science, earth science, technology, environmental sciences and physics.

    Our groundbreaking Real Life Teens Series offers unprecedented access into the hidden teen world that’s insightful, fascinating and provocative. Told from the perspective of teens, with input from teachers, school and professional personnel, our young subjects confront the trauma and drama of coping, surviving and thriving in today’s often confusing world. The series features new programming on rebellion, drugs, teen pregnancies, and STD’s.

This is a savings of 36% off the books, plus a $450 site license. Over 5,500 schools nationwide have already been using the eBooks in their classrooms for the School and Library Resource Grant Program.  Each eBook features auto-flip and auto-read mode, along with 3-D page curling, and English and Spanish text and audio. Take the eBooks for a test drive.

    So what does an All-Title Set get you? To start, 55 science, math and nature-themed picture books by 75 award-winning authors and illustrators. Sylvan Dell also provides an abundant amount of free online material in support of each title including: a 3-6 page For Creative Minds educational section in the back of every book (also online), a 40-60 page Teaching Activities packet, and 3 Interactive Quizzes per title.

    With the addition of five new titles this fall, Sylvan Dell also updated the other available set options.  You can choose a set by subject or reading level.

All titles are aligned to state curriculum standards and appropriate for children between the ages of 4 to 9.   

    Publisher Lee German says, “What we like to emphasize is that we offer so much more than just great picture books. The amount of value-added teaching activities and interactive quizzes for each title, combined with the eBooks are a fun tee-up for an in-depth, cross-curricular learning experience. Reading the eBooks projected on large screen or using smart boards is easy-to-use technology that children find fun.  At Sylvan Dell, it is about getting the children excited about the subject and then as we like to say: strike while the learning iron is hot!”

One school librarian said, “We have seen a huge increase in students just reading for ‘fun.’ Their material has truly made a difference at our school!” All hardcover and paperback set options, along with individual titles, are available in ipage.
