Reviews
Edited: I've tested both links again since you've edited your review and the second one is working as intended. Additionally, I've had 2 contacts confirm this using their different devices/web browsers/ internet set up/various security programs. This includes testing on mobile and desktops. Again, I'm sorry that you did not have this same experience. Hope you are able to have a successful rest of your school year!
Hi Beth, I'm really sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with your experience. I understand how frustrating it can be when things donโt go as expected.
Regarding the links, you're right that one of them is currently not working, but the other link is fully functional, and it provides plenty of information to complete the assignment as intended. The assignment involves reading two articles on the same topic and writing three facts, and the second link should give you everything you need for that type of task. Given this, it is incorrect to say that 1/4 of this product cannot be completed.
Additionally, the product is completely editable, so you could easily remove the s from the word articles in the directions and remove the first link to meet your needs better. Two articles are provided because every teacher knows you need to have a back up plan ready and sometimes technology, like 3rd party articles/links donโt work, the article gets archived or even simply deleted.
I apologize for not getting back to you in 4 days. Managing this page is not my full-time job.
