Does the soft or hard side go on the wall?
Thanks |

on the wall?
I guess it depends on your students. My kids are pretty rambunctious, so I'd put the hard side on the wall, only if it was above most of their heads (wouldn't want to deal with a face scraped against it) |

swiss inventor de mestral called it velcro (now of course a generic term): the velour side is the anchor and the crochet side is the removable attachment  |

You want to hang the students on the wall or just make them stick to the wall?
This thread must be about punishing kids. Personally, I'd think a strip of velcro on the seat of their pants and another on their seat would be sufficient for most cases. |

Anyone ever seen the Japanese (American dubbed) show called "Most Extreme something Challenge." They swing across water and try to stick themselves to a wall in a velcro suit |

I know a really nasty (sickish ethnic humor) joke about velcro, but I won't tell it. And it's killing me.
Those Japanese come up with some really odd ideas for entertainment shows. |

| The hard side goes on the wall. Or, better said, the less flexible needly part. I put up a word wall once in class. Put words in sentence order. New vocab. |
