Hmmm I am replying to my own post...    Now I normally do go over the worksheets some I take a piece here and there to make a new one, but as you see in my posted printables they are not there since it basically someone else �s work, and don �t want to be accused of stealing or using other people �s work for points.  (Example: Today �s afterschool club activity was items pulled from 4 different worksheets to make a new one that was relevant to what I was teaching the club about.)  I also wish there was a way to look at who downloaded your work besides the comment section.  There you would see that there are times in the day that I am in the last few weeks downloading a ton of printables and PowerPoint�s to build up my library.  I do print some up to take home to go over to see how they print up and what I can use in future classes.  I get teased by the co-teachers about how big and heavy my folder is that I take home.  It is currently about 3 inches thick.  Now the mistakes are bit obvious ones.  I will type in the mistakes I am mentioning below.  Unfortunately some of the downloads I forgot to post the name, the more recent I leave the eslprintable code that comes with the paper and add what the item basic info and creator for future reference.  I started doing this so at a later date when I do have a lot more time to go back and thank the creator personally.  I also understand that some are using non-English systems and they can and have caused some of the problems.  I have had that issue and had to repost even on the discussion board.  I did get some personal replies and a couple was not a pleasant read.  I do type the way I talk to people because I think this as a regular form of conversation, but personal attacks are not appropriate in any aspect.  I do thank the individual that sent me a website to work on my grammar.  We can always improve ourselves in many aspects.   Here are a couple of the examples I was talking about.

 

tanx (tank)

cehf (Chef)

The secetary is at the desk.  (The secretary is at the desk.  It was a sample answer on the ws on description.)

A word search on jobs which was missing nurse from the actual word search but it was in the list of words.  (Student looking over my shoulder pointed it out as I was downloading)  (My desk is in the middle of the students.)

He ___  (be) dong a good job.  (Student looking over my shoulder saw it before I did.  I am so proud of him.)

 

 

The last thing is thanking to all whose printable or PowerPoint I downloaded and haven�t had the chance to properly thank them.
