What a great idea for how to figure out your seating plan without having to erase things any time you need to make a change!

  1. I love the windows as seating guides. You could do a nice font off the printer and then trace it. I'm sure you've figured that out already :) Cant wait to see all the pictures!

  2. I agree with you- it's stressful not having any seating guidelines at all! Sadly, most people do that around here. I was actually "weird" in having assignments!

    PS I love that you're reusing the windows from your house.
