This free sample was great. I bought the sixth grade version and the answer key will download and print correctly but the students will half way down load, prints horrible. I wish I could get help
I purchased to use as a guide
I love the idea of this because I believe spiral review is important. I give mini lessons on the skills we haven't covered yet as they come up on these papers, and that has been great background knowledge for when we do get to the skill. However, there are multiple mistakes in these pages, so I can't just print and go, I have to edit them first. I was disappointed with that.
we used the to supplement our math program. We needed to spiral back to review topics learned earlier in the school year
I wish the notes that went with this were more tied to the powerpoint so that students could write along with what they see on the screen
