This only downloaded as a jpg, not a powerpoint. We were unable to change anything.

Hello,
Try downloading it again. For some reason, a couple of users have mentioned having to download it twice. I'm not sure why this is happening, as every time I download it, it works the first time. Please let me know if it still doesn't work.

Hello, Great template. Just to let you know, the first time I did download, only the jpeg example downloaded. So I tried again and then the PP template downloaded.

Thank you. I am not sure why it is doing that. Every time I try to download it, it works. Hmm. Glad it finally worked for you.

I have also tried to open the template and it will not open? After reading your response to Scipi are you saying that there is no template? And, why didn't you include the template as shown. Not exactly what I would call a free product!

Laura@AskTheEnglishTeacher (TpT Seller)

Hi Sandy,
I will check into the template when I have access to a computer. It is a complete template. Template being the operative word. Wow. If I knew people were going to complain about something FREE I guess I wouldn't have offered something that took me hours to create. Man, this is an unfriendly forum.....

I just checked the template by downloading it using my phone, and it works fine. Please check to be sure you have the program necessary for downloading the product before attempting (PPTX in this case).

Scipi (TpT Seller)

I opened your free product and there are no pictures or graphics as shown on the thumbnail. You might want to check this out.

Laura@AskTheEnglishTeacher (TpT Seller)

Hi Scipi. The thumbnail is just an example of how a completed product would look. You want your students to add their own graphics and text, for that's how you would assess their understanding of a subject. The template does not have these items, as it would be difficult to have students remove and then add new media. I've done this in the past with other teachers' templates, and it is a pain. It takes more time than it should to get students started. Thanks for letting me know, though!
