Scholastic Classroom Resources Pocket Chart Monthly Calendar, Black (SC583866)

All pockets on the chart were also not the same size. To write my column for Sunday, I had to tilt my numbers. Also, I had to trim the Sunday card to make it fit as it was going to stay in the same place and wouldn't be exchanged.

This calendar is super cute! It has two downsides you need to cut everything out and the pieces aren't as thick or laminated, so if you accidentally rip a number or a month (which is easy to do), it'll be hard to pull it back together.

This monthly calendar pocket chart appealed to me because of the majority of positive reviews it received. As soon as this item arrived, I checked it for flaws some clients had spoken of. It didn't seem like anything was too drastic to me. It took a while for the pockets to fill up. I included a picture showing that August has 31 days, as you can see. Since there are no slots left in August, I was not able to schedule the last two number days for the month. I'm really disappointed with this for $20. Some of the months, such as April, have fewer days than others, so I believe that the designers should have included at least two extra slot rows. In the end, I plan to return this item. The following information is important Due to the fact that I have these inserts for either my calendar chart or my wall calendar, I did not need to remove the ones from.

I have no sizing problems, or damage to the item. I'm not sure why some have had issues, but I'm here to tell you everything is fine. The only thing I really needed were the month titles, and the pocket calendar itself, since I bought a set of themed numbered dates for each month, and all of the sizes were 3X3, and this pocket calendar works great, even with some extra space The first thing I noticed was how sturdy it was The year is The old pull on it and they drool over it, slobber over it, etc. , and it still stands. Although it is not necessary to laminate the cards, it is recommended to do so, especially if they will be used by older children. After awhile, wear and tear will start occurring, so should be protected. Likewise, yes, you do have to cut out the months and dates from the big sheets of cardstock. My personal opinion is that this is not an issue, but others have. Idk, don't be lazy and just do it, it only takes five minutes. This is not a reason for not getting it or to not give it a star.

Various holidays, the students' birthdays, and even different months can be added to this calendar, making it a great calendar for changing out the days and counting down to the special holidays. In addition to laminating all of the parts, they have also helped me to use dry erase markers on the backs of those to mark specific days, such as winter and spring breaks, president's day, and others.

I'm not overly impressed. For kids learning the calendar for the first time, this is a handy item to keep at home. This is a practical solution. It is, however, a bit lacking in terms of quality. Due to the fact that not all holidays are celebrated in the same country, there are no inserts for important holidays. You can use them for birthdays, field trips and the like, but I ended up making my own holiday date cards. It is no different than ordinary card stock that is used to make card inserts. If children are allowed to handle them, I can't imagine they will last very long. My advice is not to use this in a classroom or in the long run. There's no guarantee that it's going to last. There's just no way this will hold up in the long run. The cloth backing and plastic pockets aren't very durable, and the stitches aren't particularly strong. However, unless you laminate each piece individually, it will hold up to some degree. . . . One major flaw of this product is the stitching. It is similar to what many other reviews pointed out. My problem was the same as yours. On the far right, the pockets are stitched too small across the entire row. The inserts ended up needing to be cut down to fit the space. In order to switch the dates, I'll need to trim down all the inserts as the months will change and the new date cards will need switching. Obviously it is not harmful to its purpose, but it definitely seems like a poor quality control issue during its production and manufacturing process. This problem has been going on for a while now, so re-checking the measurements during production seems like a fairly simple fix. They should start taking notes on these reviews and start taking them seriously.

Every three days, I take a multivitamin, but I take omega 3/6/9 and B12 on a daily basis. It is large enough to tuck perhaps three large pills and possibly more in the pockets. In order to keep myself on track, I decided to create an easy-to-see, concrete reminder that I could use to remind me to take vitamins. In the evening when I stop working, I hang the calendar on the back of my closed bedroom door. My schedule is on my phone before I leave my bedroom. I get my pills as soon as I get out of bed. It is only the pills that can pop out that are bad. The pouches might be stuffed with cellophane bags for added protection, but so far the pills have only fallen out every now and then. My mouth is watering! It's working I'm trying to shift to a plant-based, high-nutrition diet, and I need to take vitamins every 3 or 4 days to protect my nutritional status. Taking the pills daily is a good way to keep track of how consistently I take them. In the event I forget, I can see clearly when I need to take the pills. I think you'll find that useful if you're having memory issues.

On a constant basis, we count up to whatever the current date is, and then we turn the card. Until those dates are reached, the rest of the days of the current month are turned around to the blank side. For some students, it has a more pleasing visual impact to do so that way, and this calendar allows for such a change. It would be great to laminate these with a quality laminator so they last a long time. It's a great set!.
