How to Keep Student Desk Name Plates on the Desk All School Year
We've all seen it — you put a brand-new name tag on your student's desk, and within a week they have picked, picked, picked it away. So how do you keep those student name plates on the desks?
Here are some tips from the teachers on the Teach Starter team!
- Place the name tag on the front of the desk, using clear packing tape. This ensures the plate is visible from the front of the room (helpful for that sub!), but kids can't get their fingers on them!
- Use hook and loop dots. This makes it easy to remove the name tags when you move students around, and if they pull it off, it can be easily placed back on the desk!
- Reward students for neat name tags. Sometimes all it takes is a little reward-based motivation!
- Use magnets for the desk plates. Similar to the hook and loop option, this also allows for easy removal and replacement.
- Add packing tape. If you use packing tape to adhere the name plates to the student desks, simply adding another layer when they start to be peeled can fix the issue quickly.
- Provide fidget alternatives. For students who simply need to occupy their hands, providing fidget toys that can be used during the school day can help keep those name plates pristine.
