them your download to use on the smart. Then decide what budget you have for printing materials.
I print out one book level for each teacher and I had the teachers books printed in black and white. Then printed a litany for churches.
We cut our cost in thirds just having a printing company print book marks, placemats and teachers guides.
Depending on your set up on printing at the office it could all be done in house.
