“It’s a zoo out there. So keep your sense of humor.” So says Curious George, and it sounds like good advice as the school year winds down, doesn’t it? I have more inspiration for you plus handy must-have resources to help you take on the end of the year with a smile.
Post a comment to this blog no later than 11:59 pm EDT on May 9, 2016, to tell me which of the products below would be perfect for your classroom. From the comments, I’ll randomly select one teacher to win the book Keep Curious and Carry a Banana: Wisdom from the World of Curious George. (Update: congratulations to Brittney, who is the winner of our prize.)

Did you mount your resources—like posters, number lines, and classroom decorations—with TeachersTape? If you did, they’ll be easy to remove. Slowly roll back a corner of the resource and then peel the tape from the wall—no adhesive residue to clean! If you didn’t use this custodian-approved removable foam tape, you’ll want to add it to your supply list for next year. Check it out.

Keep Curious and Carry a Banana would be wonderful for my classroom. I am planning on doing a author study on H.A. Rey with my students.
I’d love to have some of that Teacher’s Tape! It is so hard for me to find an adhesive material that will keep my posters and charts from falling off the wall! Plus, with testing coming up, it needs to be easy to remove as well!
Loved the Lakeshore blog and teachers tape sure works in my classroom. Would love the books.
