Hi Stasya,
I guess it depends on the people �s needs what they download. Plus, if you compare teachers � offers on this site, you will see very many quality differences. However, sometimes I find a worksheet with a lower quality quite interesting concerning the content and still useful for classes. Then I download it.
I also see a different approach with downloads of my worksheets. Some of them that I have very successfully used in many classes, have not been downloaded (I delete them from this site again after a while). Others seem to be eyecatchers and are downloaded quite often.
Keep offering and have a nice weekend.
Cheers... Mathias

You ought to give the worksheets a chance. One of them if from today and not everyone is on line at the moment. I will comment on the grey color you have as a background. Many teachers here don �t have a color printer and the dark background makes the text look dull. Try using colors on your images and text and leave the background lighter. The teachers who only have black and white printers and copying machines have to change the dark background you �ve made to print it out and make it readable. Hope this helps. L PS - take a look at some of the popular WS and see if you can get any good ideas from them.

I took a look at your worksheets and there is really nothing wrong with them. Your house ones caught my eye yesterday and I thought how nice they were I only didn �t download them because I already have a lot of material on that topic. I loved the border.
I do agree with libertybelle that lightening the background would be a good idea though.
You also might want to add some images. For example to your jobs wordsearch. You can insert some images from Word-- insert-- image-- pre-designed image (I hope that is right my Word programme is in Spanish so I am translating). That would just make it a bit more eye catching.
I think libertybelle �s suggestion to look at other worksheets to get some idea is an excellent one.
Enjoy the weekend!

Hi Stasya! I took a look at your woksheets and I liked them, especially the ones on parts of the house. (Which I �ve downloaded by the way). There �s nothing wrong with yous Wss, but my suggestions is that you should "advertise" them with some more details in the description, making teachers feel like taking a look at them. Teresa
