Sheri Jones re: SCOOPS OF FUN - ICE CREAM UNIT
I wasn't able to open your preview on my MacBook Pro. Really wanted to see what was in this unit. When I clicked on it to open it, it says it uses a file type that is blocked from opening in this version. When I go to Open on the File menu, like it says to do, it still won't open. Hmmmm

The First Grade Reader by Jo Ellyn Hetzer (TpT Seller)
Many people with Macbooks have had problems opening preview files. I know this because I have one work I and I have difficulties at work with some files. I never have issues at home on my Windows Surface. I will try uploading the file again this evening for you. Try again tomorrow. Thanks Jo Ellyn

I love the contraction bingo. However, I have 18 in my class.
Could you make 7 more cards or send me a blank so I can make them?
Thanks,
