Q: Where is the file for my digital download?
A: All of my products are digital downloads (PDF Files). They become instantly available once payment goes through. Please check your email after completing your purchase. You can also log in to download your digital purchases.
Q: Where are your materials sold?
A: My environmental science units and bundles are available in my shop. I also sell “a la carte” posters, flashcards, and mini-studies on Etsy and TpT. All products are digital downloads (PDF files).
Q: Do you accept PayPal?
A: In my website shop, I no longer accept PayPal at this time. However, if you wish to pay with PayPal, you may complete your purchase through my stores on Etsy or TpT.
Q: Can I pay by check, purchase order, or another method?
A: At this time, I unfortunately cannot accept checks or purchase orders. When needed, I recommend that educators place their purchase with a credit card and request reimbursement through their school or organization. Thanks for understanding!
Q: Can I make a tax-exempt purchase for my school or nonprofit?
A: My website shop doesn’t currently support tax-exempt checkout. However, qualifying organizations can purchase my resources tax-free through my shop on Teachers Pay Teachers (TpT) by submitting the appropriate documentation to TpT’s customer support. Thanks for your understanding!
Q: How many times can I print the materials?
A: You may print all purchased digital downloads (PDFs) for personal and single-classroom use as many times as you like!
Q: Can I share my purchased files with my friends or co-workers?
A: No. Please refrain from reselling, redistributing, sharing, or altering these materials or the artwork within them. For example, please do not send digital files or printed copies to your friends/co-workers.
If you have co-workers or friends who want to use my materials, kindly direct them to my website to purchase their own licenses. Giving away copies of my materials violates the license and hurts my small business and mission of providing high-quality, affordable environmental science learning materials. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! Please contact me with any questions.
Q: Can I use your materials for my homeschool co-op?
A: In most cases, yes! Typically, for homeschool co-ops, a single license covers your use. The exception is if you wish to distribute the materials to other parents or educators specifically for use in their own teaching outside of your co-op event. In that case, multiple licenses would be needed (one license per educator or family).
Q: Can I purchase multiple licenses for my school or organization?
A: Absolutely! Simply edit the quantity of each unit at checkout to reflect the number of licenses that you would like to purchase. You will need 1 license per classroom (or per educator).
Reach out to me if you have questions about purchasing multiple licenses for your school or organization, or to give as gifts to friends/co-workers!
Q: What age group are these materials for?
A: My materials are created with mixed-age group classrooms and universal design in mind. In my shop, you will find a range of materials appropriate for several different age groups, from preschool through high school.
Please read each product’s description for more detailed age-range info.
Q: How long do your materials take to teach?
A: That will depend on the resource(s) you purchase, your classroom’s age group(s), and the length of your class periods. In general:
- Unit: complete set of materials on a topic = about 1 week
- Mini Study: ideal for review or enrichment = about 1 class period
Q: Can I bundle units or purchase your full collection?
Please visit the bundle section of my shop to see current bundle offerings. Each bundle includes 2 or more units at a discount.
You may also build your own bundle! This is a great way to save when purchasing my full collection.
Q: Do you offer a subscription?
Not at this time. However, I am still gauging interest in a subscription option and may offer one in the future. If you are interested, please don’t hesitate to let me know!
Q: Do you sell printed versions?
A: Not at this time. All my products are PDF digital downloads only.
