Kindergarten classroom4/12/2023 I thought I took pictures of them but I can’t find them on my camera, so I’ll take some tomorrow at school. You just buy refill packs of the sticky tabs when you need more. Anyway, buy lots of those (haven’t ripped one yet) and use them in place of baskets and buckets to stow all your goodies in! I have them in my Word Work station, Listening Station, Pocket Chart Station, Drama Station, and somewhere else I can’t think of right now! □ I hang them on the wall with those 3M hooks that can be removed later and not take the paint off, but they stick almost anywhere (I haven’t ever had any fall off). The ones now are black and white and are near the gift giving items. They have had them out since the holiday season last year (I used them for stockings for my extended family and Easter baskets). I am using them for everything this year! I’ve purchased all I can find. I would stop what you’re doing right now and go hit up your Target Dollar Spot for the fabulous re-usable bags they have for sale for a dollar each (I got lucky one day and got ten of them for. This made everything for uniform and the labels all have the names of the stations in English and Spanish! □ I also copied the work station labels and chart labels right from the back of Debbie Diller’s book (Literacy Work Stations). I don’t have to write all the names out and when a new student comes in, I just print out one new card at a time. I’m sticking with something similar, however this year, in the interest of KISS (keeping it simple silly!), I printed all the names on pre-purchased business cards. You can search for LWS on my blog and see how I managed them in the past. I did add/change a few things this year and some I can show you and some I cannot not (I want to not post the names of my students on my blog), but I can take pictures of things without names and explain them in detail. I still have 3-4 more to introduce and then we’ll be ready to go. We haven’t officially used any of them yet (except for the library work station), but I hope to get them going later this week. I’m slowly introducing Literacy Work Stations in my classroom. I can’t put my finger on what it was, but all of it together had tired me out! □ I’ve had the craziest two weeks I can remember at the beginning of the school year! You’re all probably experiencing or about to experience the same thing.
