Hello everyone:
I have a lot of worksheets, but I �m not sure I can share them. My main concern is breaking the guidelines or rules of this website. Often times, I make worksheets for my kids with pictures I scan from their textbook. Then I cut, paste, and edit the clippings and then add writing exercises, questions etc. using the pictures as a visual aid. I do this so that they immediately associate the picture to something they recognize and can remember the word better. Of course, I use clippings of pictures, not the entire page, but if that is not allowed, I will not upload them. If it is not a problem, please someone let me know and I will gladly share them. Thanks!

Taking individual pictures from sites and other sources would appear to be allowed, it is only if the picture is marked with a copyright notice or there are conditions on the page about how it can be used. I recall seeing a recent entry here about a specific website that does not allow their pictures to be used for other ESL resources. I know that MES English too has such a restriction.
Again, common sense and basic honesty prevail. If the picture is a significant part of the worksheet then the source should be acknowledged, but if it is just a simple illustration, then I don �t see the need to acknowledge every single one.
Hope this helps |
