Demonstrate how to slip a note off the straight pins. Review what the notes are for and let children take turns doing a few trial runs. Ask children to find different notes and give them time to locate them. Have students help themselves to notes as needed. You may need to fill in particulars, though in some cases students may be able to do this themselves.
Children can also change the border to reflect seasons and special times of the year.
