On a recent trip with my mom, I checked out the dollar section to see what I could find. I have found many awesome things there and usually they are things to use in my classroom. On this particular trip they had little silver letters made from card stock. I had seen them before but hadn't ever bought them. I decided I couldn't pass them up and got four packs. Each pack had one of each letter so I figured four would be good. And at $1 each, it wasn't gonna break the bank. I didn't know what I would use them for but when I got home, I decided I would turn them into magnets and put them on my metal desk at school. I quickly ordered the most amazing, mini magnets from Amazon and anxiously awaited their arrival.
I got my magnets and glued them to the back of the letters. I took them to school the next day and added them to the front of my desk. My desk faces the students so they can see the letters and immediately noticed them when they got there. Some of the students started making words and phrases which made my little heart so happy. I was glad they liked them and glad that they weren't too old for it.
Here are pictures of the process. They aren't too exciting but figured everyone just wants to look at the pics anyways so here you go. And yes - those are my Agnes and Dora leggings which I am so in love with. I have a few pairs and wear them to bed every night. So if you haven't checked them out...you need to! Like right now. Go to the website. Buy a few pairs. You can thank me later!
