Questions about the ELA sheets
Are the reading passages original?
Yes. Every passage and every question on Beesheet was written for this site. The Dolch sight-word lists are public domain; the worksheets built from them are not copied from another publisher.
Can I paste my own spelling list?
Yes. The spelling, scramble, word search and crossword tools accept your list. Type one word per line; for crosswords, add a clue after a vertical bar.
Does the handwriting paper use a specific font?
Tracing sheets use a dashed outline of the system handwriting-style font. If Andika is installed it is used first; otherwise the browser falls back to Comic Sans or a standard sans-serif.
