Barton new versions?

[OneRoomSchoolHouse]

I am looking to buy Barton Reading and Spelling and have heard that they have come out with new versions. Does anyone know which levels have new versions? I know for sure Level 2 is now version 2, but what about level 1 and the others? Also, does anyone know what the differences in the versions are?

I don't know, but if you go to their website and email them, they will reply and let you know. Some of my questions have even been answered by Susan Barton herself that way.

I called Susan Barton's number, here is the scoop:

Levels 1 and 2 have been updated. Level 1 has minor changes and Level 2 has significant changes. If you are planning on tutoring children that are not yours, i.e. to make money, you need to buy the updated versions. You can tell which version you have by looking at the discs; they should say "v.2".

I plan on buying the updated versions since I am starting from the beginning.
