workbook sheet protectors?

[Guest guest]

Has anyone ever come across any good techniques for protecting workbook

sheets? & nbsp;

& nbsp;

I use math workbooks to practice math skills with my child and it gets expensive

to keep replacing the books. In the past I have slipped plastic sheet protectors

over the page, use a dry-erase marker and reuse the page & nbsp;but it is often

difficult to get the marks off of the plastic sheet cover. & nbsp; Are there any

good & nbsp;worksheet or workbook protectors or other tricks out there? I need a

side-loading protector since the pages are in the workbook and not loose

pages. & nbsp; Thanks a bunch! & nbsp;

& nbsp;

How about photocopying the pages before they're used?

That's my best shot at the moment!

You need to buy those overhead sheets. They are single stiffer sheets that

can be stuck over the page of the workbook and clipped with a paper clip.

Use a Vis-à-vis marker then wash the sheet off in the sink to reuse. Get

them at office supply places. They can be used to photocopy on; that is the

original use but as a teacher, I use them to write on. Vis-à-vis markers

come in different colors. Underline the directions in one color, circle the

problem numbers in another, etc. to guide your child. Even highlight the

line where the answers go. Remember that workbooks function well for

working on basic skills, but you need to also apply those skills to real

life problem solving to make them useful. If old enough, get a real

checkbook (fake checks-your bank will give them to you for free) and

practice a budget. How much money would you receive weekly for a job at

Taco Bell or one that requires college and use that information. Deduct

taxes, etc. Have your child interview 3 people with different jobs to

decide which sounds interesting. Use your basic house bills as they come in

(child checks mail for bills coming in)for realism. Mail fake payroll

checks to the house as well.

For any age of kids, buy a toy cash register from a teacher store. Use REAL

coins, not plastic for struggling kids. They do not need to learn two types

(fake and real). If you want, I can send you a basic invoice to use to make

simple purchases from the clerk, you. Trade jobs.

I do this with 2nd graders. They love it. I even let them write checks out

of my checkbook for utility bills and I sign them. Forces addition,

subtraction, neat hand writing, and following directions. Have fun, hope

this helps. It should be done with all children so they see how much it

takes to run a household and they become more aware of why there isn't

enough money for expensive toys and things.

I sent an earlier response, but didn't see it here.A fellow parent developed a system for this calledWorkbook Window. Do a search for workbook window.com if this link doesn't work:

If you have problems getting the markers off the protective

page, try really cheap liquid hairspray. I was able to get permanent

marker off my paneling with it. The only challenge is getting all the

hairspray off the item. If you don’t, it will leave a yellowish

residue. My mom is a hairdresser and we tried it because it breaks down

hair color. The aerosol type will work, but the cheap liquids seems to do

better. It also gets ink out of clothing.

You could remove the pages from the workbook, laminate

them, and then put in a three ring binder. After that, you can use china

markers or grease markers on the laminationed sheet. You can find the

lamination sheets at any office supply store (these do not require heat).

You could try to laminate them in the existing workbook too.
