Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
Why are six separate poster files provided instead of one?
Each file contains the same eight-poster set pre-sized for a different print format, A3, A4, US Letter, 11x14, 16x20, and 8x10, so a teacher only opens the file matching their printer or print shop rather than resizing anything.
