I want to add a printable activity that corresponds with a digital activity. I saw this example labeled “Paper Resources” below the Screen thumbnails:

> **[Grade 1: Making Ten to Solve Addition Problems • Activity Builder by Desmos...](https://teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilder/custom/65611df20db8604ddcb2d717?collections=651ca31cf69ee59aa9e3818a,64e8fc28ad87a0d0caf62044,64fa3f20a8018fc37b0cd59b)**
>
> Students add two-digit and one-digit numbers that require composing a ten in this small group mini-lesson. The teacher can model composing a ten out of 10 ones. Students then practice composing tens in order to solve addition problems.

I haven’t found a way in the Activity Builder to include a PDF, other than linking to an external location in the Student Support section of the Teacher Tips.

Thank you!

You can include a PDF by linking to it in the Student Support section of the Teacher Tips in the Activity Builder. This way, students can access the printable activity alongside the digital one.

Hi @Sheryl_Richardson. Looks like that is a Desmos Classroom made activity where the print materials are part of the internal platform. Your best option currently is exactly what you noted. You can also include links directly in a Screen’s note component if desirable.

Thank you for looking into it and confirming it is not available through the activity builder. They made it look seamless!
