I Really Can't Contain Myself!

Well, this day started off like a charm... Up early, one appointment and right around the corner a little store called Dollar Tree. I had to stop in to get a BIG bag for one of my best teacher friends birthday! Well, and what do my eyes spy? OM~gosh, a ONE DOLLAR HAND POINTER! I had to take a moment and make sure I wasn't giving myself high blood pressure and collect my thoughts! Yes, it IS exactly the same as the ones you pay five dollars for teacher friends. Trust me, I have inspected every inch of this gem. You better run and get them while they are there!
But before I leave to go get some more... I wanted to share with you one of my favorite summer finds, my binder easel. I learned about binder easels from Beth at Primary Connections. I am using one for my morning greeting to my students as they walk in the door. I just love this idea. In the coming days, I will share some other fun ideas for this so cute binder easel.

  8. I can't find any info on the binder easel either. Can you help? I currently have a binder like this propped up and white duct tape holds the front and back cover the way I need it to. But if there is an easel that does this, I want it!!
