Silly Question
 
Hi All!
I was in the middle of creating a work sheet when I suddenly wondered if it would be acceptable or not.
So my question is; Can we upload worksheets for adults only?
I don �t mean anything vulgar, but something about alcohol or other adult targeted materials?
I don �t want to be accused of encouraging minors to drink so I thought I �d ask.
Thanks in advance
Frank

Should we have extra ages in the minimun age section so that if we upload something for adults we don �t enter 14 to 14+?
I don �t know if that is possible and if it is, is it too much work?
Just curious
Thanks

I agree:  just note it in your WS �s description.

Most of the WSs here appear to be targeted for children or maybe teens.  I really appreciate being able to offer adult students WSs that are designed for them and address topics and issues of significance to them, but it�s difficult to find material like that.  When adult students have strong opinions about an issue or experience with the subject matter, they get much more involved in class and are more willing to practice communicating in English...and isn �t that the whole point?Smile

I�m looking forward to your WS, Frank!

Go ahead with it Frank!
Senior students need more controversial and debatable worksheets!

Hi frank! I definitely agree, it �s great to have material that can be interesting for adults. We are always trying to get them involved, aren �t we?

Hi!

I know just what you mean. I have a couple of adult students and the other day we were descussing work ethics, particularly in science. So I made a worksheet with the top ten evil geniuses like Mengele and such. It was certainly NOT for kids, not even older teenagers. I didn �t upload it here because I was afraid it wasn �t appropriate or acceptable. BUT if there was an adults category, it would fit right in.

If you look back at past worksheets you will even find one on the "F" word.  I �m sure you �re okay.
