EDITABLE STUDENT NAME TAGS-Student Name Badges-Clip on Tags-Student ID Badges
By La trousse de Madame
Editable Student Name Tags
I have been using these name badges in my classroom for the past 3 years. I love the feedback I get from Substitute Teachers when they tell me how much they appreciate having students names at the ready. Personalised Name Tags for each student makes for clear communication. Classroom management goes so much more smoothly when everyone knows each other's names.
And we all know, a happy Sub will keep coming back! And in these crazy times, that means everything!
Who can use these name tags:
Teachers of any grade from K-6 can definitely benefit from having these names at the ready. New teachers learning student names at Back To School time. Teachers on long term contract may want these handy name tags when they know they will only be around a few weeks.
I keep a note in my Substitute Emergency plans to let them know where to find the Clip-on Tags in my room.
Where to keep them:
I keep mine attached to student cubby bins so that they know where to find their stuff at the beginning of the year when we are just getting accustomed to the new classroom.
They are so proud the first time they put them on! They feel so 'professional'!
How to use the name tags:
-Open the file
-Fill in Teacher name and room number on the first slide
-Immediately click on the slide, right click, and duplicate slide so you have enough cards for your number of students
-Now fill in student names, copy, cut, and laminate
-using a hole punch make two holes just below the top line side by side
-slip through a snap clip so students can clip the tags to their clothes
