Another great idea! This one is from Angie at

No More Name Plates
The most frequently asked question when
visitors come to my room is "What did you
use to write the names on your desks?"
Well, my friends, I can't stand name plates.
Nope, don't like them at all! The kids pick
at them, tear them, write on them, and they
basically look a mess!
So, my teacher buddy (Kathy at Kathy's
Coordinated Class) and I came up with the
PeRfEcT solution...
Sharpie Paint Pens!
These pens rock!!
They are like your typical Paint Pen
(shake and shake and shake, press and
press and press and finally paint
starts flowing).
The best part is - they don't wipe off!
Yep, that's right! They stay put, no mess,
no fuss.
So...
my second most asked question is
"How does it come off?"
Let me tell you my friend it is simple!
Just rub well with an Expo marker,
wipe clean with a Kleenex, and viola!
It is gone!
(Btw, this little trick works with
any smooth slick surface that is
written on with Sharpie. For example,
my laminated birthday posters have
names and dates written with black
Sharpie. At the end of the year, I
clean with my Expo marker and the
poster is ready to go for the next
school year. Cool, huh?!)
The markers come in a variety of
colors. So, go - hurry - pick some
up now and start your first full
week after Thanksgiving with a
clean, neat desk top!
She's a genius! NO MORE TAPED NAMETAGS!!!
Seriously, how do people figure these things out??!
