It would be great to get the Word version with the same headings as the PDF.

  Hi Erin, that would be a fantastic idea. Unfortunately, fonts in Word need to be a standard type so all users can access it. The font we use in our PDF is Grobold which you can download from various font websites for free.

  Hi Sheree, That is a great idea! Especially as a back to school activity where students could make their own brochure and share it with their new classmates! We have created an editable version of this resource so you can tailor it specifically to your class. Enjoy!
