Great resource!
Great Chart
I just got done using this and my students really liked it!
Easy to use and adapt!
Each file is not accessible.
Joann,
I just downloaded the zip file as you would to my computer, and have access to all the files that are part of the zip. I am unsure as to why you can not access the files. You may need to unzip the folder. I am working on a Mac, and my zips often come already unzipped for me due to preferences. There should be 3 pdf files, 2 word documents, and 3 excel files.
