Is this available as a Word doc so that I could add more advanced activities?
Thank you 🙂

Any chance we could get these in a smaller size? Im looking for 4, 6 or 8 per page rather than one per page! Thanks.

Thank you very much!

Oh fantastic! Thanks for that tip 🙂
Deanne Moller · Apr 24th, 2015
These are fantastic!
I think they would be even better if there was an option to have them smaller, like 8 task cards to a page for small group word work or homework task cards.
Great resource though 🙂
Deanne Moller · Apr 19th, 2015
Stay tuned Deanne! That option is coming soon 🙂
In the meantime, try printing multiple pages per sheet of paper. You can find out more here: https://teachstarter.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201085749-How-do-I-print-my-resource-in-the-correct-size-
