PLEASE READ THE RULES BEFORE UPLOADING YOUR WORK!
 
Dear teachers, I want you to pay more attention to the rules, before uploading your work.
As you know every day moderators have to check reported wss and ppts. For example at the moment there are more than 40 reported wss and ppts.
Can you imagine how much time it takes us to check all of them?
Some of them are copied (read �stolen �) from other sites or from members of this site.
But some are quite good, but they  contain only one sentence which is
not in English, or
one or two watermarked cliparts, or
there are worksheets with just a song lyrics without any activities added, or
just a text without tasks.
It is not allowed according to the new rules!
 
Please read the rules again!
 
P.S. I hope I didn �t hurt anyone �s feelings! But I am really exhausted today after checking so many reported wss.
Have a nice day!
And let ESLprintables be the best site for teachers!

well said ;)
i �m not a moderator, but i agree with you: reading the rules is very important, and no one should upload their work if they didn �t read them carefully!!!

I couldn �t agree more dear Larissa. It takes me almost 2 hours in the evening to check the recent contributions. I do it as often as I can, but I can �t do it every single day. That �s why we would really appreciate if everybody paid attention to the rules. Some are really easy - 100% in English, no watermarked clipart, no use of texts/images from textbooks, for example - so why insist on infringing those rules?

We would also appreciate if members could always give the source of their texts, unless they write them, of course. Ethically speaking, that �s the right thing to do, and it would save moderators a lot of time.
 
Wish you all a nice day.
Hugs from foggy, wet Azores,
