Q and A: Tech Tip - How to Send One Page or Section of a PDF to Families
The spread of the Corona Virus has brought many changes to the field of education. Families are taking on more of the responsibility of schooling at home. Making sure children have the resources they need can be a challenge.
Due to this outbreak I have temporarily extended my copyright. I allow the digital sharing of my materials under the following circumstances:
A page or small section of a file may be shared by a professional (therapist, teacher, etc) with their clients/students through email or a secure website.
As always, you may not share entire files or upload them to any public website.
