I absolutely love the fabric you chose!Sarah Carter (@mathequalslove)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11839095945000612533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-17617951922526708002012-06-28T15:39:01.267-05:002012-06-28T15:39:01.267-05:00@Approx_normal - Steal away :) I love fabric on t...@Approx_normal - Steal away :) I love fabric on the boards, it's so much easier than paper and with paper, I always had to overlap it - UGH!<br /><br />@Mathy - I'm curious to know what it will look like too! I got them all cut out, but did not finish assembling... that's a task for another day :)<br /><br />@Amy - Usually I'm not in school mode yet, but no snow days meant we got out a week earlier plus soe weird stuff going on in April/May had me in teaching limbo, so it wasn't until June that I even could THINK about next year!<br /><br />@Fouss - Is your chalkboard magnetic? Another option would be to laminate some fun wrapping paper or scrapbook paper instead of fabric for a background :)druinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12363634340959613461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-71514744543082462172012-06-28T14:05:11.169-05:002012-06-28T14:05:11.169-05:00I was reading your post and taking notes. :)
Love...I was reading your post and taking notes. :)<br /><br />Love the fabric on your bulletin board! I don't have a bulletin board (whiteboards in the front of the room, chalkboard on the side) but I might be able to attach some fabric to the chalkboard (which I basically use as a bulletin board) to make it prettier.<br /><br />Those are some funky student chairs you have! Are they comfy?<br /><br />I love Dafont.com! I just got a new computer for school this year so I'll have to download some new ones. Will definitely add yours to my list. (The Angry Birds font is fun, too, esp when doing parabolas in Alg2/Alg1!)<br /><br />I think I'm done now. :)<br /><br />KristenKFousshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04493982153040173831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-24238436363093912582012-06-27T20:23:49.618-05:002012-06-27T20:23:49.618-05:00Envious of elementary teachers?

I think it took about two years for me to decide that making use of the space was a better idea than just using them for decorations. It was also about that time that I began using fabric as a background. It is an inexpensive alternative to paper that lasts for many years.Math-termindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13010723510931153531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-32967317699314311462012-06-26T20:45:06.494-05:002012-06-26T20:45:06.494-05:00I LOVE LOVE LOVE this!

It looks better, hides the staples and pin holes that come from a years worth of putting stuff up. Plus, it's ONE less thing I have to worry about the week we start back. <br /><br />I'm stealing the card pockets idea, by the way.Hedgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10919652235796913113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-32272045728682903832012-06-26T20:25:57.000-05:002012-06-26T20:25:57.000-05:00@Pam - Thank you! :) I agree w/ the font name!

I was like "wowzers!! who would name a font that?!?!?"<br /><br />@Miss8 - I've had the hanging file for years, it probably came from Mardel if I had to guess. The card pockets I picked up at Dollar Tree last weekend. I use fabric on my boards because it can last for years and years without fading. There is still fabric in my classroom from 12 years ago that I put up :)druinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12363634340959613461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-40918931419794909692012-06-26T19:15:21.381-05:002012-06-26T19:15:21.381-05:00I was wondering where you bought the hanging file ...I was wondering where you bought the hanging file and the neon library card pockets?<br /><br />For my bulletin boards, I use colored paper (the elementary has giant rolls in bright colors) and duck tape for the borders. Especially now that you can find it in all kinds of designs at Wal-Mart, Hobby Lobby, and the Dollar Tree. Then when I'm done I can just tear it all down and throw it away.miss.calcul8https://www.blogger.com/profile/02014623484245570719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-77292289922147637642012-06-26T19:14:46.629-05:002012-06-26T19:14:46.629-05:00It shhhhooooorrrreee is purrrdy!

I like the remediation wall from mcmatherson & your target cards - need to get to work on those. may pick pick your brain on those after reading some more. The font name was a little too much for me :0 but will look great - I think I'd rename it sleepyhead.:) Can't wait to see the other two finished boards!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
