It’s the end of the school day and students are just 30 minutes away from being dismissed. You just remembered you needed to send home a reminder note for parents. There are many questions you ask yourself to solve this problem. Reminder bands can solve this problem and can be used to send out notes quickly!
Reminder bands provide a convenient way for teachers to communicate with parents. Reminder bands answer questions like, “What can I send home that parents will see?” “What can I prepare quickly?” “Do I have what I need to get these notes out?” These are all questions teachers ask themselves when they need to send a short and sweet note home to parents in a hurry. With their customizable text and being printed on paper, reminder bands serve as a practical tool for conveying important information.
1. Reminders Bands are Quick to Prepare
Reminder bands are easy to prepare. They are printed on regular or cardstock paper. Then they are easily cut into 8 bands. Students can buddy up and tape, glue, or staple the reminder bands around the wrists. Here are more ideas on how to store, organize, and prepare printable wristbands.
2. Reminder Bands are Easily Visible
Reminder bands have a color or black & white version. They can be printed on red or brightly colored paper to grab parents’ attention. Fasten them easily to a child’s wrist or backpack for clear and concise parent notes. They can also be glued, stapled, or placed in a student’s planner.
3. Reminder Bands Save on Paper
Reminder bands don’t require a lot of paper. There are 8 bands on each piece of paper. That’s saving a lot of whole and half sheets of paper in a typical note. That’s a lot of trees saved! Why waste whole and half sheets of paper for a quick reminder note?
4. Send More Notes Home for Better Communication
Students love to get something from the teacher. And reminder bands are no exception! Students have fun wearing them home and showing them off just like brag bracelets. Since it’s easy to prepare, teachers are able to send more notes home to promote stronger teacher-parent communication.
Since students wear these charms home, parents will get to see the reminder. It’s a quick way to get parents to keep up with notices and is great for parents who don’t always check their child’s backpack. These slips can open and/or improve communication between you and your parents to set the tone for a productive school year!
Whether a reminder for a bake sale, food drive fundraisers, parent supplies, conference, event reminders, picture day, book character parade, field trip, field day, permission slip due date, wear gym shoes, early release tomorrow, library books due, pajama day tomorrow, or to complete a homework assignment, reminder bands offer a way to communicate with parents on a regular basis.
