Don'undervalue your work. That is too great of a resource to be giving away for free. If it's any indication of your overall work, then I am definitely to check into your products more. I have become one of your followers. I invite you to rate my free product. I think it pales in comparison to yours but it is a start for me.

Love the fact that these biographies are designed to be both factual resources for teachers and lessons with "comprehension assessment" for students. A must-have and must-keep download!

I found your posting on the Seller's Forum. I trust you will take the time to rate my freebie. It should be a math game, but for some reason, I think it is the spelling one. I did list three items on the Seller's Forum.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Grades Taught:


Secondary Solutions is the endeavor of a high school English teacher who could never seem to find appropriate materials to help her students master the necessary concepts at the secondary level. She grew tired of spending countless hours researching, creating, writing, and revising lesson plans, worksheets, quizzes, tests and extension activities to motivate and inspire her students, and at the same time, address those ominous content standards! Before the inception of Secondary Solutions, materials that were available were either juvenile in nature, skimpy in content, or were moderately engaging activities that did not come close to meeting the content standards on which her students were being tested. Frustrated and tired of trying to get by with inappropriate, inane lessons, she finally decided that if the right materials were going to be available to her and other teachers, she was going to have to make them herself! Mrs. Bowers set to work to create one of the most comprehensive and innovative Literature Guide sets on the market. Joined by a middle school teacher with 21 years of secondary school experience, Secondary Solutions began, and has matured into a specialized team of intermediate and secondary teachers who have developed for you a set of materials unsurpassed by all others. Mrs. Bowers, Founder and President of Secondary Solutions, is now currently running Secondary Solutions from home while she raises her precocious two year old daughter!
