Can I edit the files?

Yes. The PowerPoint and the Word worksheet are fully editable, so you can change examples, add questions or adapt the design for your class.

How do I use the worksheet slides?

After the teaching slides, each worksheet question appears on its own slide. Let students try it first, then show the next slide and work through the solution together.

Is there an answer key?

Yes. The Word file ends with a teacher answer key that has the answer and a worked solution for every question. It is also included as a separate PDF.
