Now it's easy to make banners for the classroom. These shapes link together on the sides so you can connect as many as you want. Make banners to announce anything -- welcome, happy birthday, a lesson topic, month or season. Anything is possible.

You can also use the shapes to track progress toward a goal. For example, have students add a new link every time they read a book. They can write the book name and author on the shape.

With three shapes on the die, if you cut six layers of construction paper you will cut 18 shapes with only one pass through the machine. What a time saver!
