Individual teachers and parents are welcome to download, at no charge, the 14 units of this title to print / photocopy for use with your own students. Each download is in PDF format, and contains all the pages in that unit. It also includes a copyright page that includes a statement giving you permission to photocopy the pages for use by your own students.

   You may print out the pages and photocopy from those, but most large office photocopy machines will accept direct digital inputs including PDF files. That will usually give the best, most consistent results. Copy two sided to keep the double page layout design. You should run a few pages as a trial to your school photocopy machine, and adjust the lighter/darker printing control if needed.

   Be sure to select print / photocopy at 100% full size / original size, NOT "fit to size"! You do not need to include the copyright / permission page in the sets of pages you run for your students.

   Please see the Information Page for ideas and tips for using this title most effectively with your students.

   The complete Teacher Key pages are posted on this web site. Go to the home page, click on the links for a section, then look for the key symbol when the index page for that section opens. There are also links to lots of interesting and engaging resources, such as historical photo sets and short videos.
