Sticky Nametags From Mary Masters: "Purchasing nametags can be expensive, adhesive file labels won't stick to clothing, and masking tape is boring, so what can a teacher do? Purchase contact paper with a neat design and then use your school's die cuts to cut out interesting or thematic shapes. Use a permanent marker to write on the students' names and let dry. These nametags are very inexpensive and will stay on all day making them great for when there is a classroom visitor, sub, or when you go on a field trip so keep a couple of sets ready for special times. Even better, let a parent volunteer prepare them for you to have on hand."
