Good product, but contains quite a few errors including spelling, grammar, and incorrect answers on answer keys.
Hi Christine. I am not sure what errors you are referring to. Please email me and I will gladly correct them right away. Also, what do you mean by "answer key"?
I like the idea of this product, but once I printed it out and tried to lesson plan, things didn't seem to fit together for me... I hope to try again next year and get better results! Also, a lot of the pages' titles did not print out, which made it hard to keep track of.
Hi Kristen! Please make sure that you are opening and printing the file from the latest version of Adobe Reader. This should resolve any printing issues you might be having.
Great supplemental work for root word studies. There are several mistakes and typos, but overall this is a great unit.
