Thank you for sharing. I am so excited to start this unit with my 1st and 2nd grade ELL students. The graphic organizers are very helpful! They will learn proper nouns, character traits, comparing characters, persuasive writing, adjectives, cause and effect all while having fun!

This unit is great. I used it with my kindergarteners because "Duck for President" was something to read as it was listed in our standards, but it was too difficult for them. I had to do some tweaking to better suit my kids. All in all though the unit is VERY thorough!!

I love this unit but I am very frustrated with the overall ability to print this unit. After lots of time it is apparent that on page 17 the printing ability stops. I did contact tech support and was told that the problem is not with my computer or printer. Please email me a copy of this unit so that I may print it out. amy.gorum@uintah.net

I'm sorry you are having issues. When I just downloaded the product from TPT and printed, I was able to print everything, with no problems. Please contact me (or any seller) in the ask a question tab for things like this in the future. Thank you. I'll send you the pages you can't print when I have a break today at school. Please make sure you are printing from adobe and you may want to change your settings to "print as image" in the advance tab of the print screen. It speeds up printing. (But, I'm sure you were already told that by TPT) :)

I'm sorry that I am not able to share the password. If I did I would be breaking the terms of use for the clipart and would be in trouble. Might I suggest that you scan copies to yourself and you could bring it up on the interactive board? I know this is what I have done in the past from other things I have purchased on TPT.
