Year 1 Book Updates

One of the benefits of our Redesigned program is our commitment to providing our customers with updates to our primary booklist.  Most of these updates occur because a title goes out of print and is replaced. Sometimes we will also add an additional book. This chart is designed to give you the information you need to make your printed copy of Tapestry match our current booklist. Here are a few things to know about how this chart works:

There are two versions of the chart for each year-plan: one online and one on the Loom CD. The CD version is current as of the week you purchase your year-plan. The online chart is continually updated.

The "Replacement Assignment" column gives you the information to complete the assignment.  You have two options:  pencil in the new title and its corresponding page numbers onto your existing Reading Assignment Chart.  Or, you can purchase the replacement pages from the Bookshelf.

The "Replacement Assignment" column is different on the two interfaces. On the Loom CD, this column links you to PDFs of new Reading Assignment Charts or Glances, and you can print them out and insert them into your curriculum, instead of penciling in the changes. On the online chart, this column links you to our Bookshelf where you can buy a download of these pages. You don’t ever need these pages; they are available for purchase for those who prefer not to write in their curriculum.

The "Necessary Pages" link you to replacement worksheets or other necessary pages. They are available for free and are the same on both versions of the charts.

The replacement information is organized by printing. Scroll down for previous printings.
