Sometimes cool tools can be low tech (and inexpensive), as evidenced by these great display stands I found at Ikea for .99 each (search Tolsby on ikea.com).
I'm using them right now for several things, as you can see in the photos.
Last week I used them as table numbers for the book pass activity (see previous post). The numbers are clip art that I re-printed in color this morning to spiff them up a bit.
The students of one of our Spanish teachers are getting ready to do a big Dia de los Muertos project in the library, complete with a large altar to Frida Kahlo and smaller, individual altars to relatives and personal heroes. I put related pictures in the display stands and will set these on library tables to compliment their projects.
What other uses have you thought of for these low tech cool tools?
Thanks for sharing where you bought those picture frames. I love them! they are perfect for table numbers and signage. I tried the book pass with some of my classes in the library. It was a hit! Thanks for sharing this wonderful idea.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea. May I pin one of your pics to my pinterest board?
