So, how will I use my borders and change them out seasonally for all to see? Here is my solution! Make super cute posters over the summer, or whenever you have time, laminate, and then put them up outside when displaying the student's seasonal work (I use clipboards to change student's work easily-see older post)
I already have two at school (one double sided) that say: Pumpkin report and We are thankful for...because these are activities we do each year.
So anyway, you can make them double sided, use your borders, hang them in the hallway easily, change them quickly and display student work nearby. One is covered because it has the school and mascot. By the way, Lakeshore is having a sale right now and these poster boards (high quality, thick, colors) were only like 63 cents! That is also where I got the "winter celebrations" package-20% off 4.80!
On a side note, I found these cable ties at Ace hardware (about 3.50 a piece-kind of expensive) that are 6 inches. They are a great alternative for binder rings, especially if you use a PODD like me. They don't come apart and don't get caught as easily in the middle. Great alternative! Worth the investment!
