It is nearly impossible to find where to actually get a download link. Everything goes to the “Start Download” button which then downloads malware (Ask comes along with it). It makes an excellent website a really difficult site to use.
I am sorry those are ads I believe, and I don’t have a ton of control over there placement or when they show up. My download boxes are black rectangles that are pretty big!
I am trying to get a copy of the Easter STEM Activity Cards.
It is saying Link not found.
Hi! I just checked and am not seeing the error can you email me please, [email protected]
