Does the physical book include the PDF?
Yes. Every physical Teacher Edition purchase includes the complete digital edition at no additional charge.
Are the answers printed in the student textbook?
No. The printed student textbook contains explanations and practice without the answers. The separate answer-key PDF is included. Printed answer keys and quiz booklets are separate books and are not included in this price; their ordering options are being prepared.
Can I buy just the PDF?
Yes. The Digital Edition includes the complete student PDF and a separate answer-key PDF for $39.99 CAD. Nothing is shipped, and the download links are emailed after you order.
Can I photocopy pages for my students?
Yes. Your Single-Teacher Classroom Licence allows you to reproduce materials for students you personally teach.
Can another teacher use my PDF?
No. Each licence belongs to one individual teacher. Sharing the book or PDF with other teachers, departments, schools or districts, reselling it or posting it online is not permitted — additional teachers should purchase their own copy.
Where do you ship, and when will my book arrive?
Shipping to Canada and the United States is free. Each copy is printed to order and sent by tracked mail, and you will receive tracking by email when it ships. Your PDF download link is emailed after you order, so you can start teaching before the book arrives.
What if my book arrives damaged?
If your printed copy arrives damaged or with a printing defect, contact us within 30 days of delivery with a photo and we will send a replacement at no cost — or a refund if a replacement is not possible. Because the complete PDF is delivered with every order, book and PDF sales are otherwise final, except where the law requires otherwise.
Does the book lie flat?
Yes. The coil binding is specifically intended to keep the book open while teaching, writing, playing or photocopying.
Can I print it as separate booklets?
Yes. Every chapter is self-contained and opens with its own title page, so you can print a single unit as a finished booklet, print the whole book, or photocopy only the pages your class needs.
Is this a student workbook?
Yes. The printed book contains instruction, exercises and worksheets without answers, so students can write in their own copy. The Teacher Edition also includes a separate answer-key PDF and a classroom photocopy licence for the teacher.
