I have never participated in Monday Made It and each week I try to figure out how I can participate because I am not very crafty. I can do lots of cute stuff on my computer, but, sadly, that's where my talent ends. Then, it hit me! I love my mailbox labels, using binder clips and I can repost how I did that. Yay! I have arrived!
These are my students' mailboxes. I typed out their names, laminated them, and taped them to the 2-inch binder clips. I love this idea because they are easy to update and I don't have to worry about labels falling off. I hope you have enjoyed my tip!



Great idea! I absolutely adore your new blog design. It is fantastic!

I lucked out because my school bought one for every teacher this year. They really come in handy. Maybe you can convince the powers that be to do the same at your school?

I love your new blog design!!! And I love the idea of clips on their mailboxes.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of using the clips as name tags. I've always just put tags in their mailboxes, but until I get used to where each box is, it takes me a long time to move the papers that are in there to see the name tag. Now I just have to get some clips!

I really like your cubbies and clips! I'd also like to invite you to my new linky called "Fun Friday". It is all about the fun things we do in our classrooms. I'd love for you to stop by and link up (even if it is not on Friday).
