Suggestion on worksheets with no answers... add answer key
|
May I make a suggestion when uploading worksheets and you have questions to be answered attach a sheet with the answers you used as a reference point. This includes fill-in-the blank even if there is a word clue attached. Not only are there teachers using these, but there are some students as well. The answers would be helpful in both cases. One sheet I downloaded and was question on had multiple answers since the individual uploaded without the answers. I was accepting mulitple answers as long as they were correct, but had issues with the co-teacher since there was no answer key. The co-teacher got lost. |

I �ll second that.
When teachers upload reading comprehension texts it is really necessary to include the answer key as well. It simply saves time, and we all know that teachers don �t have a lot of free time... |

I also agree. I usually include answer key, unless it �s a very simple exercise. It saves quite a lot of time!!!!

I �m in favor.
Sometimes there is more then one good answer and it �s good to see what the author suggests.
I always prefer downloading exercises with keys |

I second that too....I �d like an answer key and I also like using Pictionaries, especially with kids from 6 to 10. My slower kids can work by themselves with their Pictionary and don �t feel intimidated by the faster kids. |

It �s a good idea but just be careful and read everything before giving it to your pupils, there are occassionally mistakes in the questions and answer pages.
I made that mistake once. It �s embarrassing. |
