The Instructor Guide makes a reference to :

Lab activity  
Lab solutions are available in the instructor resources for this course.

WHERE can I find the instructor resources?  
Thank you Microsoft for building the MakeCode Arcade course but its needs to be better organized to be useable in a classroom setting.  
I am having so much troubling just accessing the Intro CS Makecode ARCADE course.  
Each file has to be individually downloaded - instead of it being available as a consolidated zip folder.  
Please let me know where the Lab solutions are posted. - my email is [pgupta@brunswickschool.org](mailto:pgupta@brunswickschool.org)

Hello Mrs. Gupta,

If you already have access to the course materials repository on GitHub, there is a built-in option to download all the files as a zip. Click the `code` button when you first navigate to repo

and then hit the `Download ZIP` button.

I am also searching for the “Lab Solutions” that are referred to in the instructor guides. Does anyone have any insight on where I can find these solutions or what I need to do in order to access them?

Thank you in advance!
