DIY: Quick & Easy Mini Anchor Chart Stands

This DIY mini chart stand is easy to create with only 3 supplies! You can find all the supplies in your own house, too. Since I love PVC, my all-time favorite mini-anchor chart stand is made from PVC. The DIY directions for the mini PVC anchor chart stand are here.  Even though I love the mini chart stand that I created out of PVC, it doesn’t travel everywhere with me. I required a mini chart stand that would fit easily in my rolling cart. You never know when you might NEED a tabletop anchor chart stand!!

So, I used the supplies I had available in my closets to create this mini-marvel.

All you need:

• One binder
• Shipping tape or duct tape
• Something to sandwich in between the front and back covers of the binder (I used a box of lasagna noodles- unopened to make it sturdier. When I’m done with the stand, I can pull off the tape and we’ll have noodles for dinner!)

This DIY mini anchor chart stand is so easy to create!

1.   Flip the binder open backwards. The front and back cover will be facing each other.
   
2.  Stick your box or cardboard in between.

3.          Wrap tape around the whole contraption. If you want it to be pretty, you could use decorative duct tape or cover the box with pretty paper. The sky is the limit!

4.          You are ready to go! Simply snap your anchor chart or poster, into the 3-ring binder and stick it on your table.

You can use the mini chart stand to hold word walls in a center, word families, phonics rules, math rules, or whatever you need…

Hope that one of these Tabletop Anchor Chart Stands will work for your teaching needs!!
