Help in Classroom Decorating from Edupress

There's nothing to boost the morale and create excitement in a classroom like giving it a new look for the season or creating on-going interest centers on bulletin boards. Here are some decorating ideas and materials from Edupress.

Word of the Day Calendar Activities / Classroom Wreaths

Word of the Day Calendar Activities

These colorful headers and calendar numbers are designed as starting points for open-ended vocabulary activities for students of all ages. Each date introduces a new "Word of the Day." These words can be used in creative writing activities, as discussion starters, as quick prompts for language activities, for spelling lists, as word banks, or maybe to create a dictionary center. Date Markers are 2.69-D a package. Individual headers are .89 each. A header set with all twelve headers is 5.36-D. These pictures will only give you an idea of how bright and cheerful these can make your room look! Please keep in mind that these images do not do justice to the real thing. When I blow them up so you can read the words, the photo in the background gets distorted. The colors also may not be accurately rendered on your monitor. Trust me that these are bright and beautiful! (Sizes may not be in their right proportions on this page.)

This series is out of print. I have a header set left and only the markers I have pictured here. The rest are sold.
Headers are only available as a package containing all twelve: BTH-3081. $5.36-D

************************************************************************************************

We're in the Pacific Time Zone
Our normal office hours when we answer the phone are 10: 30 AM - 4 PM Monday - Friday.
We answer email and ship at other times, but normally take Sundays off.
 

We prefer you ask your questions about products and availability by e-mail, since that gives us more time to prepare a thoughtful answer and keeps us from playing phone tag. Please remember to put our email address in your address book if you have a spam filter or you won't ever get your answer unless you also leave a phone number. We cannot usually tell you immediately over the phone if a book is here. We have to walk two blocks to check the warehouse, so I usually have to call you back or email you anyway.  We do check our e-mail frequently throughout the day when we are at home. If we should be out, and you leave a message on our answering machine, we sometimes cannot hear the phone number clearly to return your call. Those are some reasons why we recommend you email us first. If you want us to call you, please leave your phone number and time zone.
When you do email us, please do not leave the subject blank or just say "Hi" or "Hello" as the subject. We delete those before opening because a lot of spam messages look like that. 
We have supplied a subject line in the link provided above that will guarantee your mail will be opened fast.
Or call (800)925-8587 (not before 10 AM or after 10 PM Pacific Time)
