Removable and repositionable adhesives are designed to hold classroom materials firmly in place without damaging surfaces or leaving residue. Mavalus® removable poster tape sticks to multiple surfaces including brick, cinderblock, and painted walls, while Con-Tact® repositionable cover can be applied and removed easily for desk accessories, shelving, and display boards.

Colorations colored masking tape is ideal for creating efficient classroom labeling systems and color-coding supplies, student materials, or learning centers. Available in clear/neutral, single color, and multicolor set options, the tape tears easily by hand and writes on smoothly with markers for quick identification.

Craft tape, also known as Japanese washi tape, applies easily to paper and wood objects and is simple to tear, cut, and position, perfect for student-led creative work with minimal teacher assistance. Colorations offers whimsical printed designs and glitter finishes that add decorative elements to art projects, scrapbooking, and gift wrapping.

Washable glue sticks are designed to remove easily from skin, clothing, and most classroom surfaces, making them practical choices for ages 3-5 and kindergarten readiness activities. The purple formula goes on purple and dries clear, helping young learners see exactly where they've applied adhesive, building fine motor skills and spatial awareness.

Self-adhesive hook and loop tape creates quick-change displays and hands-on learning tools without drilling, stapling, or creating permanent fixtures. The fastener system holds teaching materials firmly in place and allows you to swap out content for seasonal themes, differentiated instruction stations, or student work galleries.
