5 Ways To Use Astrobrights In Your Classroom

Classroom Worksheets Using Astrobrights

The concept of printing on colored paper is absolutely GENIUS! I discovered Astrobrights© my third year of teaching and was thrilled that not only are the vibrant colors happy, eye catching, and made my life much more productive, Astrobrights© saved me TONS by reducing the amount of colored ink I used. Colored ink is so expensive!

A neon product that saves me money in the long run? What teacher doesn’t need to save money? That’s a win-win in my book!

Because color is a powerful element of visual communication, before they are consciously aware of it, children start processing this important component of visual language early in life. And color plays a critical role in the world of education - it’s been scientifically proven that a classroom’s visual environment helps stimulate learning.

Here are 5 ways to use Astrobrights in your classroom!

1. Classroom décor to match any theme.

With more than 20 different Astrobrights colors, you are sure to find colors to match any scheme.

While my neon-rainbow classroom theme allowed me to use all 25 colors on the Astrobrights spectrum, you can mix and match to find the style you like. Astrobrights bright, cheery colors help adorn a blank wall.

5. Parent Notes that won't go unnoticed.

If your classroom is anything like mine, paperwork has a tendency to go unnoticed in a students’ backpacks. Printing important notices on Astrobrights makes these reminders less likely to get overlooked.  Because how could one miss a field trip reminder when it is printed on Re-Entry Red?
