PLEASE READ: Activities and fingerplays in my booklets are taken directly from memory, my personal index card file (a compilation of ideas I've collected since 1980 and beyond), or from all the many notes/hand-outs I've kept over the years. And some of the ideas are my own. In compiling my card file over the years, I remember gathering ideas in these ways: jotting down random activities from resource books when I needed something, having ideas handed to me that were written or typed on paper, having ideas spoken to me, or jotting down activities that I observed being used in a classroom. Although I don't know the specific origin of most of the activities, I've tried to give due credit (as best I can recall) on the "Website Credits" page of my website. As for the graphics in my booklets, to the best of my knowledge, I've properly used the clipart images. Many of them are from Broderbund, Rom Tech, and Media Graphics International, although some of the drawings are mine. All other graphics are of unknown origin. If you know the origin of anything you read in my booklets or find that I have infringed on someone else's copyrighted written material, or discover that I have used graphics improperly, please let me know immediately. I'll GLADLY make things right. Stormie SeeversMY BOOKLETS MAY NOT BE REPRODUCED IN ANY FORM |
