To Laminate or Not to Laminate

 

Tips and Tricks - Laminate!

If you're like me, you have the children circle certain words or letters that they're studying. I've done this, and found it pays to laminate the chart paper before you hand them a vis-a-vis marker. That way you can always wipe off the paper to reuse again, and you don't have to worry about rewriting the sentences/words/letters.

Our Reusable Easel

We don't have paper we can use for the easel, and this easel has a wooden backing. So I took a sheet of white bulletin board paper (the kind that comes in those big fat rolls), cut off two sheets, and laminated them. (One for each side of the easel. Now my kids can draw and color with markers or tempra paint. And when they're done, they use a wet paper towel to clean off and start over.
