We know it's frustrating when you're ready to go and a resource doesn't work the way you expected. The good news is that most setup only takes a minute, so you can get back to your students without the extra stress.
Google Slides
Many presentations, games, and digital task cards are available in both Google Slides and PowerPoint. Just look for the Google Slides label on the resource preview.
When you've found the resource you'd like to use:
- Click the green "Download Now" button to download the PDF guide.
- Open the guide and choose how you'd like to use the resource.
- For Google Slides, click the link in the guide to make your own copy. It'll automatically save to your Google Drive.

For PowerPoint, click the link to open the presentation, then download and save the file to your device.
Digital PDFs
Digital worksheets and activities are designed to be completed on screen. Look for the Digital label on the resource preview.
