Posters:
Poster for assessment incentive Classroom PosterThese next few I found and don't know where - cool, eh?
Stamps:
These are pretty self-explanatory. The name stamps are for when I stamp their homework books after they write in them. The kids help and love to be able to pick their own design to use for that day.
My favorite is the red rubric stamp. It has made grading lab reports so much easier! Kids all have a cardstock copy of the rubric so they can refer to it all year. Now I just circle the number they earned. They can look back on their copy (and we often do this together) to see where they went wrong and how to fix it for the future. Major time/paper saver!
Stickers:
Sticky Notes:
Totes:
These might be my favorite thing to order from Vistaprint. They are so cute and sturdy - perfect for carrying a load of grading home.
Brochures:
8th Grade brochure for next year...of course I find a typo AFTER I got them printed :P
Rack Cards:

Front and back of brochure insert that gets returned to me...sort of a parent contract

I decided to make a reference card of all of our vocab words so kids would know what was coming and could check them off as they defined them in their glossaries.

Lab Report card to stick to computers and/or give out to students/parents
