I use some old wooden ones that I've had for about 20 years :-) Here are a few ideas: For wooden ones: Search ebay for starters - wooden letters last forever so people do sell them off. Buy some online - try<a href="http://www.brightideasteaching.co.uk/epages/Store2.sf/?ObjectPath=/Shops/Store2.Shop1767/Categories/%22Letters%20and%20Templates%22/%22Wooden%20Templates%22" rel="nofollow">Bright Ideas </a> Your school should be able to order them through one of the catalogues if you are in the UK. Ask other teachers - they often have a set tucked away. If you are buying try to get the Sassoon font. It always looks good on displays. Alternatively - make a set of your own and laminate them. Find a font you like, print it out at the right size then photocopy onto card. Cut them out and to ensure long life, laminate. I've got a pdf somewhere... I'll put it online and link to here in the next week or so.. Finally consider using printed titles instead. Faster, easier and often looks neater. Hi Lynn,
