HOW TO USE
1. Read page 3 (Pick Your Path) and choose the flip book, the nesting circles or the booklet.
2. Print only the pages listed for that project.
3. Teach with the Learn It posters, then let kids write, draw, cut and build.
4. Use the practice pages and state pages for centers, homework or a quick check.
HOW TO PRINT
• Open the files with a free PDF reader such as Adobe Acrobat Reader
• Choose "Actual size" or "100%" - not "Fit to page" - so the flip book pieces stack perfectly
• Print one-sided. Copy paper works for worksheets; cardstock (65-110 lb) is best for the background, circles and posters
