Good questions

Is there an answer key?

Yes. It shows all twelve finished pictures in color.

Does the black-and-white version still work?

Yes. The key names every color in words, so the pages work the same printed without color.

Are there holiday pictures?

Yes: a pumpkin and a turkey for the fall, a snowman and a Christmas tree for the winter, and a heart for Valentine's Day.

What exactly do I download?

The same 16 pages as PDF files in full color and in ink-saving black and white, each sized for US Letter paper and for A4. Print the one you like.

How do I get it?

The button takes you to the download page, run by Polar. There is nothing to pay. It asks for your email address so it can send you the files.

Can I use it with my class?

Yes. Print as often as you like for your own children or your own class.
