Great ideas. Thanks so much for taking the time to make it look great.
I'm sure people wouldn't mind making donations for free stuff. Do you know if they have a donation pot.

BrenMM re: Foundations for Study Skills Module 1: Learning Styles
I really want to use the study skills in my classroom. It looks like it would be a good resource, but I can't get it to work. Any suggestions? I downloaded the file and I have an internet connection. What more do I need to do to make this work?
Thank you for your time and commitment to excellence!

Hmmm, not sure! I'm traveling right now and will be home on saturday, so i will work on it then, ok? Worst come to worst, i'll try emailing you the file directly. Or it is online if you have a connection you can use in your classroom...
If you'd be willing to share your email address, this might be more efficient.

Hey Sandy,
I did copy it this morning and it didn't work. I tried it again and it did work. Thank you so very much. I will look it over to see if it is what I am looking for, and if so, I will be purchasing it.
Thanks again so very much. Have a great day.

Hi Carol, I just tried the link and it's working ok on this end. did you try copying and pasting the whole thing? It looks like it's on two lines on this end, but it all needs to go into your browser bar. (it goes from the www part to the second pdf part). Is your Adobe reader up to date (though I wouldn't think that would make a difference). Here's the link again: http://www.learningnook.com/printables/IRIbooksamplepdf.pdf
