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...Thumbs Up

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 Thumbs Up

I second that too....I �d like an answer key and I also like using Pictionaries, especially with kids from 6 to 10. Smile 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.
