    Please, post the slides as a PPT file. I am unable to download the pdf file.

    I wondered if it were possible to post the slides in powerpoint format. It's easier to present and make modifications to fit the needs of specific kids when the information isn't in acrobat. Same for the documents - word format (or the google docs equivalent) would be great.

    Thanks!
