Chalk It Up

The classroom board at 3 pm: chalk doodles, smudges and bright chalk colours.

Chalk It Up looks like the classroom board at the end of the day. The contents page is Today's Lessons, Our Classes opens with a roll call, and the grade pages borrow from school itself: a Kindergarten Word Wall, a Grade 3 report card of straight A+ grades, a Grade 4 lunch-vote chart and Grade 5 Hopscotch. Backgrounds range from smudged slate with ghost writing to white math-grid paper.

Chalk It Up, answered

Is Chalk It Up dark all the way through?

Field Trip, Picture Day, Fall Festival, Halloween Parade, Book Fair, Math Night, Winter Concert, Science Fair, Spelling Bee, Kindness Week, Spirit Week, Art Show and Field Day.

What does the Memories section include?

A Do Not Erase page, Messages From Our 5th Graders, a month-by-month Our Year page, All About Me with a draw-yourself box, All About Future Me and two autograph pages.

Which fonts does Chalk It Up use?

Caveat for the hand-chalked headings and Quicksand for names and body text. The six chalk colors, from Chalk yellow to Chalk lilac, are in the palette below.
