I have a questions about posting a resource I use as a printable.  I don �t want to break any of the rules of the site and I am not clear if this would be an appropriate post.  Please let me know your thoughts and I will proceed accordingly.

 

The school that I teach at subscribes to a private database that archives associated press articles that have been rewritten at various grade levels.  The site is designed to help students with reading so that an entire class can read the same article on-line at their appropriate reading level.

 

I have taken this resource and adapted it for my ESL classroom.  I teach ESL 1 and I find articles of interest and get them at a beginning reading level.  I also copy and paste the multiple choice questions that correspond with the reading.  I end up with a short non-fiction text, target vocab for the text, and multiple choice questions; but it is all just copying, pasting and reformating from the website.

 

I love using this with my students and have thought about making it available on this website, but I don �t want to break any of the rules.  The most important rule for the website is that what you submit is an original creation.  What I have is original in that it is not available eslewhere, but it is really just a series of copying and pasting.

 

So what do you guys think?  Is it appropriate to make available as a printable?

 

Thanks,

Suzanne
