Q: Can I post your materials online?
A: You may not post my materials online to a website where they are publicly accessible and able to be picked up by a search engine. Google classroom, canvas, are ok- resources may be posted on the internet are when they are protected with a password and for students eyes' only.

Q: What standards do your products support? A: My products support multiple standards. You can check them out individually here: Biology Roots Standards

Q: Are your materials editable? A: In some cases, yes. I understand the need for flexibility in the classroom, however I cannot always offer editable products due to intellectual property laws and image terms of use. Resources that are always editable include PowerPoint presentations, study guides, task cards, and assessments. if you purchased it and it did not come with an editable version, chances are it's for a reason.

If you purchased from my website at biology-roots.com, many of the errors are extraction errors or pdf viewer errors.
"Path too long"- this typically indicates that you are trying to extract in a protected folder on a Windows computer. Try to extract onto a user profile folder such as your Desktop or Downloads.
IF you are on a Windows and see a folder titled "_MACOSX" - delete or ignore it. Do not try to access the files from it. I work on a Mac and sometimes these files show up on Windows downloads.
Before contacting me, please try one of these free websites to extract your zip files as they often work seamlessly:
For PDF viewing errors, please be sure you have the latest software of your PDF viewer installed. The most popular PDF viewer is Adobe Reader (free). Please download it and try to open the PDF again.
