How teachers use this shelf
A poster only works if students can read it from their seats, so these use big type, a few words and plain shapes. They print on one sheet of letter or A4 paper and can be enlarged at a copy shop. Change any wording to match your room, then print in colour or save ink in black and white.

Questions
Can I print a poster larger than one sheet?
The PNG download is high resolution, so a print shop can enlarge it to a poster. You can also print on letter or A4 and mount it on colored paper.
Are these okay for a school wall?
Yes. There are no characters, logos or brand names, only shapes and words, and you can edit every word.
Can students help make them?
Print in black and white and let students color them. Many teachers do this for the rules poster so students own it.
