There were no directions for using this activity and clicking on answers did not have interactivity to show whether students chose the correct answer or not.

Mfwilson,
Due to the nature of the vortex template being used within this lesson, there is no way for the students to check their work afterwards. They will know they have made the correct category choice for the picture depending on whether the vortex "eats" the picture or "spits" it back out. Regarding directions not being included - I've included some minor revisions. Hope this helps. Please feel free to download revised edition.

I can't open this file with the latest (or any other) version of Adobe Reader because it says, "Adobe Reader could not open 'GrizzlysTeddysandBearsOhMyACollectionofBearActivities.notebook' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."

This is a Smart Notebook file. I know this might sound like a silly question, but do you have Smart Notebook installed on the computer you are using to upload the file?
