Velcro Dots
Create a visual seating chart.
Take a digital photograph of each student, print the photos, and write the student's name at the bottom. Attach a Velcro dot to the back of each photo and to a seating chart created on laminated poster board. Staple a sheet of transparency over the chart and you can make notes on it too.
Velcro Strips
Mark areas on the floor.
Use Velcro strips to mark children's places on a classroom carpet. The hook side sticks to the carpet, and you can write a name on the reverse side. And they can be vacuumed!
Velcro Strips or Dots
Attach name tags to desks.
