LOVE these! NEED these!! Have been trying to make due with folders for a long time….not cuttin’ it!

Been wanting these for a long time!

I have one set of these, but they are in the green, red and blue. I need another set to complete my class because they all want one. I have found that RGC is the best way to purchase things on a budget because I can spend $100 and split the payments into three months, which is $33.33 a month. This makes all the difference in the world. I get really excited when that third month rolls around because I know I can make another purchase on easy pay without killing the budget!

I need these for my classroom! Not just for testing but to help curb chatting and helping students remain focused!

I am currently using two manilla folders that are laminated together. They fall over all the time. These would be great!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:30 am
Would love to have a set of these in the technology lab. The stations are very close together which encourages too much sharing.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:30 am
My 3rd graders would think these are so cool….so cool, in fact, it might take the edge off testing for some of them. Maybe, just maybe, they’d look forward to testing so they could disappear into their fortresses of solitude! Love these!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:30 am
Wow! Love these!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:31 am
These privacy shields are awesome, I am going on my third year with the. I have 12, my students have learned to share them, and know that not everyone is going to get one. Thanks RGS!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:31 am
I am a new 3rd grade teacher this year. These privacy shields are really needed. Two folders per child are not working well at all. Thank you!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:32 am
Awesome! The kids would each have their own office!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:38 am
so need these!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:41 am
These are wonderful! A teacher friend has these and I have borrowed a couple of times- great when you don’t have the room to “spread out”. Already on my “wish list” for next year.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:41 am
I would love these too!! Almost all of my students need these to work and currently I only have one!!!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:42 am
I would love to have some of these. Classes are too big now to move kids so they can’t look at each other’s papers.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:42 am
I have thirty four students and would love to have these dividers for testing!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:45 am
These would be the perfect solution! We use folders and the flimsy folders flop over on the desk creating distractions.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:45 am
Love these! I have 12, my students love them, and know they need to share them.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 11:51 am
These are amazing! We have been trying to make do with cover sheets and rearranging desks everytime there is a test, these testing privacy shields would make test time so much more functional!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 12:11 pm
I love these, my students love these. I am going on my third year using them, they have held up quite well! I have 12, so my students know they need to share!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 12:11 pm
I use little folders now and its such a pain with 5 & 6yr olds because they touch everything and knock the little folders down. These are sturdy and perfect!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 12:27 pm
I love these! Great for any test. I use them every week
Commented On January 15th, 2012 12:47 pm
Great product! I’m always borrowing them from my friend across the hall.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 1:01 pm
These would be great! I could throw away my flimsey folders for these sturdy testing shields!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 1:17 pm
Love these I have been dreaming to have these for a very long time. I teach 3rd grade and we do not have individual desks, so during testing time it really becomes difficult. I made these out of manila folders, but they keep falling. Please…please….please would love to have them
Commented On January 15th, 2012 1:30 pm
I would love to have these in my classroom. They would really come in handy when testing with my students. I love all of your products! Really Good Stuff is the best!!!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 1:31 pm
I could really use some of these privacy shields! I love the size and design on these ones.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 1:41 pm
I would love to have a class set of these. I need them for the students that like to “paper shop” at their classmates’ desks.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 1:42 pm
These are great! I have two sets and love them, but need more.

These are great and hold up well! I need more.

Our school loves these, but due to cutbacks we haven’t been able to buy as many as we need. So our teachers are sharing the ones we already have. I teach resource and a felllow teacher gave me a couple to use with my small groups. My kids can be resistant to them at first, but then love the idea of their own personal space. They help cut down on the distractions, my distractable kids already face.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 2:18 pm
I love these. I had a set at my last school but I could not find a good box to pack them in when I moved to another state. I so want a set again.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 2:19 pm
Love these, I too use 2 manilla folders laminated together, they just don’t work well
Commented On January 15th, 2012 2:39 pm
Love Really Good Stuff!! My third graders sure could use the privacy shields!!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 2:59 pm
I sure could use a set of these I have been wanting to get some for a long time but did not have the funds.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 3:53 pm
I use these every week !!!!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 4:04 pm
I love these! Our school could really use more of them. We’re sharing the ones we have between classes right now!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 6:10 pm
These would be great to have for small group testing! We’re coming up for our first round of testing in mid February & these would be a great help!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 6:24 pm
I love these! My neighbor teacher has them and I am always jealous!! :
Commented On January 15th, 2012 6:50 pm
These are great!!! Every classroom should have a set of these!!!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 7:02 pm
Need these desperately!!! I have made my own,and shared with other teachers. Could use a set of these for sure!!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 7:12 pm
LOVe the privacy shields. With larger class sizes there’s less room to separate students. These help keep my students focused on their own work.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 7:16 pm
I would love to have a set of privacy Shields. I have wanted these, but because funds are limited, I have not been able to buy them. I LOVE really good stuff. I buy every time I can.
Commented On January 15th, 2012 7:35 pm
I love these. Our school shares them because of cost but we would love to have more!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 8:12 pm
My school could really use these. We are currently sharing a few sets between several teachers. This would be a big help for us!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 9:35 pm
Really Good Stuff is always relevant and promotes student learning and teacher supprt!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 9:52 pm
I brought 2 sets 8 years ago – and they have seen lots of desks – could use some new ones to replace the broken ones- the kids love to use them!!!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 10:10 pm
I could so use these for my 2nd graders! I am currently using folders taped together – not as good as these shields!
Commented On January 15th, 2012 10:24 pm
Thanks Really Good Stuff! We can always count on you for awesome, quality products! I have been eyeing the privacy sheilds and have them on my wishlist….don’t we all have a wishlist?
Commented On January 15th, 2012 10:29 pm
Hello!
I really like how your privacy folders have encouraging words all over the front! What a great idea!
Commented On January 16th, 2012 9:53 am
I really need these! They would be great for my first graders to feel special in their own space.
Commented On January 16th, 2012 10:26 am
These are great! Much better than the file folders stapled together.
Commented On January 16th, 2012 10:39 am
Would love a set of these! My classroom is so tiny, my kids (and I) could really benefit from these!
Commented On January 16th, 2012 3:35 pm
Agreed about trying to use folders for way too long!!!
Commented On January 16th, 2012 8:10 pm
Oh if only I knew these existed when I went dumpster diving to gather cardboard to create a few of these ” privacy offices” to cope with straying eyes.
Commented On January 18th, 2012 9:21 pm
These are perfect for the tiny classrooms that don’t have much room to put your students far enough away from each other to keep them from ‘peeking.’ It would be awesome to win this and have these for my students.
Commented On January 18th, 2012 9:24 pm
Mrs. Vaughn needs these!
Commented On January 19th, 2012 1:15 pm
would love this for my students
