great assorted colors that are light enough to see all types or writing on it (pens pencils markers etc) and durable thick cards. Ruled lines. The packaging are good because you can see the actual product. Card colors due fade if you leave in sunlight for a long amount of time.
I used these cards for a reading strategy tool. One of the reasons I think these are more effective than the neon ones is that I use them with older students and they are easier on the eyes. I have never used these before but I remember index cards from a long time ago being very sturdy. If you have the same memory don't despair that they are rather thin. From an ecological point of view I feel less greedy about the amount of pulp used to make them. Further the package size gives you a sufficient amount of each color so that you can create categories by color with enough to spare. The price is reasonable too! They travel really well.
My students and myself enjoy using the Rule Pastel Assorted Color Index Cards. The card are use for many educational activities and Differential Instructional strategies. Thanks Staples
This is how I keep track of my prospects and cients it is easy to change character or timing by changing the color of the card and filing it in a different tab. I keep these on stock because I never know who I will meet or which prospect will become a client. This helps remind me to call people back and they don't have the feeling that I forgot about them in fact they are delighted that I remembered to call. This also keeps me from calling people too often who are not ready to make a move. Although I also have online systems website client databases this still is one system that I rely on.
