DITHOR Question

Post by Amylynn » Tue Jan 13, 2009 6:12 am

Hello!

I was just curious if it is alright to copy the workbook pages from DITHOR for multiple children within the same family?
I don't want to infringe on Copyright laws. :)

Thanks for any info.
Blessings!

Gosh I hope so. I don't have multiple children, but unless I'm looking at it wrong, wouldn't I have to copy the pages if I plan to use more than one book when going through a genre? I have to admit to being a bit confused when getting started with DITHOR and really need to go through and find some old threads. Since each genre has the option of using up to 3 books, depending on the pace, wouldn't I use each set of pages for each book?

Or is it that depending on how quickly you move through the book, you just follow the pages so that not every activity page goes along with every book.

:shock: :oops: Clearly I am confused and could use some clarification! Like I said, I need to dig through some old threads I just haven't had the time.

You just go through the days for the genre once. You might have one book for the first 5 days and another for the next 10 days, but you don't go back to day 1 for the second book. :) The workbooks are consumable so likely not okay to copy from and the teacher book is non-consumable and I think is okay to copy from as needed. You'll use the same teacher book, day by day, every year. The only DITHOR copies I made were the record keeping pages for who read what books and when, "tips" pages, and the vocab, etc. worksheets all from the teacher book. I was a bit confused at first on how to do things, so maybe the copies weren't needed (or allowed! :o ) but that's how I understood it.

Amy,

It is ok to copy the pages from the student books within your own family. (If you check the posts in the archived DITHOR posts, you'll find it there several times. But they're all asking other things so I didn't link them here.)

We're really enjoying DITHOR this year as our 1st year. It's fun! :D And Grant is really learning a lot!

:D Kathleen

Thank you all so much for your help. :) I am so sorry I didn't see the DITHOR archive.
I should have looked there first.

Thanks again so much, Ladies! :)
Blessings!
Amy
