This may not be a topic every one wants to learn, but it is important that they do. Violating copyright laws can have serious consequences for students and parents. Flowcharts and resource pages teach the basics of United States copyright for middle school and up, including product creators. Printable charts make reference fun and very easy. This lesson is ideal for writing reports or research projects, but also for anyone of any age wishing to create in the media, such as printables, film, or crafts. There’s no “pencil work” in this 13-page lesson, but you will refer to the material over and over again.
