If you do not have access to a printer at all, you can use the activities directly form the Toolbox. This requires more time of preparation since you may need to use other teaching aids such as, the class board, a small erasable board, white paper, notebooks, and more.
Make sure you know which activities or teaching resources you will need in advance and where you can find them on the Toolbox. Open the files on your Laptop and use it as an interactive board. The digital books can be opened from the Toolbox, where you can find the listening tasks for the books. You can play the songs and the listening activities during the lessons.
