Why print onto sticky notes?
You can make reminders and notes for students and teachers, like the /r/ reminders shown above. I use these /r/ reminders in the classroom to target carryover.
I have students bring their desktop reminders back to class and stick them on their desks, assignment books, laptops, or some other visible place. The student looks at the sticky note throughout the day and is reminded to self-monitor for /r/. The teacher can also tap the sticky note to remind the student to use a good /r/ during class.
Side note- if you’re having trouble with teaching your students the /r/ sound, you should check out my article about articulation for older students.
Once you learn how to print your own sticky notes, you’ll be able to whip some up anytime you want.
Materials needed:
3? x 3? good quality sticky notes (bright colors are the most fun!)letter sized printer paper (8.5? x 11?)printer (note: I have only tried this with regular printers. It might jam a big combo copier/printer.)digital sticky notes template that contains a blank “template” page and “graphics” pages with the images/text you will be printing onto the sticky notes (get this FREE one here)Let’s do this!
Follow these steps to print your own sticky notes!
Print the blank template page.
The purpose of this step is to determine how to place the blank template into the paper tray of the printer so that the graphic prints right side up, inside the squares. You will need to experiment until it prints correctly.
The sticky strip must be at the top of the square, so it goes into the printer first. 
Remember, yours may be facing a different direction than mine, depending on how the paper feeds into your printer.
It should now be printed onto the sticky notes. The below example was done with my /r/ sticky notes, which can be found here.
