Is it ok to send these ws?
|
Hi.
I really want to know if it�s ok to send printables that I prepared using the activity books that my stds didn�t buy.
The school I work only sold the stds book. The activity book is only for the teacher, so I prepare for the UNITS ws using some of the activities from this book.
Is it ok if I send them?

no you can not use books or exercises taken from books, read here the rules of the site.

Good morning from Spain, Cassy if you read the rules of the website you will find the following extract (which is the one that concerns to you, I think): If you have a worksheet that you didn �t
make yourself (borrowed from a colleague teacher, for example) don �t
send it. It might be taken from a website or book, and your account
could be banned on account of it.
-
You can use texts from other websites or
books in your worksheets if you add your own exercises or activities
(For example, reading
comprehension questions, etc). Please don �t take texts from other ESL
websites or books, it would be unfair.
-
If your worksheet is just a reading
text,
it will only be accepted if the text is written by you.
-
It is acceptable to take a text from
other
sources (not ESL websites or ESL books) and add your own exercises or
activities, but you are not allowed to take an exercise from another
source and add more exercises of your own. All the exercises must be
yours.
So if you have used some activities as a reference to create a complete worksheet adding your own ideas, I do not think you will have any problem once you share your contribution. Have a nic e day,
Withina

Hi Cassy
The rules are clear, I �m afraid. You can �t take any exercises/activities from another source and you can �t use texts from an EFL source, such as the Activity Book you mentioned.
You can only upload the worksheets if they don �t contain anything from the Activity book.
