The laminating pouches helped me create some amazing, long-lasting resources like grammar task cards and math ten frames for my students. My students love to use the task cards to play SCOOT! The number stickers are the classroom supply I did not realize that I needed! They have been so useful in labeling my students' composition books and curriculum workbooks. Finally, the clock stamp and the magnetic elapsed time set are really helping my students review how to tell time on an analog clock, as well as supplementing our elapsed time lessons.
