Lesson Slides

- Extra blank slides are included if you wish to add your own stations or additional slides.
Editable Station Table Toppers
- These are designed to fit Ikea's 4x6 white Tolsby frames, but you can adjust the size of the table toppers in your printer settings if you don't have these frames and would rather use different frames.
