Great activity. I'd suggest that you put the image into a Word or PowerPoint file and then save it as a JPEG. It's a bit inconvenient to work with documents that are saved as JPEG's.

I think this product is really great. However I do believe, it would be better as a PDF instead of a JPG file so that the words are cleaner and easier to read.

This has been my number one rule since the beginning of school, but it dawned on me recently that my sixth graders were not quite sure what it meant. They will be sharing at morning meeting this week. Thanks!!

Thank you for your comment about my 'Person of the Year' worksheet. Not sure if you noticed but there is a worksheet set covering all the Time 'Persons of the Year' since the very beginning of the magazine. I hope the one you purchased works out for you and that you might consider more of my worksheets in the future. :)
