We feel your pain.
We know it's difficult sometimes on our schedules to come up with new engaging lessons.

We're teaming up with excellent teachers around the country to offer awesome downloadable products in the new Lesson Marketplace of Amped Up. Easy-to-use, effective activities that are standards-aligned, engaging, cooperative, challenging and involve critical thinking. And best of all, you don't have to do anything (except make some copies!).
Yes we take Purchase Orders in our lesson marketplace. Send us the PO and we will send you the lessons.
