I would love to see something larger and more rectangular, maybe 5.5 x 4?

Ditto to the above comment--a template (portrait) with 4 cards on it would be perfect!
(It must be the Montessori teacher thing!)
Also, thanks for this great resource. It's wonderful to see such a useful product from a fellow Peabody grad!

kparks-
Thanks for the compliment and the feedback about the templates. When did you graduate from Vanderbilt?
Cheers,

I would like even smaller sizes like 1" x 1" or 1.5" x 1.5" to create communication boards.
Thanks, this is a great resource!

I agree with the smaller sizes: it would be wonderful to be able to use this site for communication books as well as labeling, sorting, and other teaching applications: 1" sq, 1.5" sq, 2"sq.
Thank you for all the hard work!

Hi
I was wondering if you could add two more spots to the 4 x4 template. That way paper wouldn't be wasted.

I'm looking to make an activity schedule of 3 activities, for larger pics. I didn't see a template like that.

kitchenl - Would templates 13 and 14 work for you?
lmacdonald - so you want 3 big cards on the page?
Folks that want littler cards... I'm working on it. My template layout tools that I use to make them need some love before those will get done. But rest assured, they're coming.

I would also like 1" and 1.5" squares for communication books. This is such a wonderful resource!

2 x 2" for sure, as well as 1.5" square, and an option to print without margins between cards (to reduce time at the old paper cutter). Thanks!

Is there any way templates for 3x5 and 4x6 index cards could be added? In our program, we print symbols/photos directly onto index cards so that would be amazing. Thanks!

Good suggestion. I'll add it to the list and I'll drop a note here when it's in.

I would like 1 inch and 1 1/2 inch cards. It would be great to see some templates that match up with different communication devices. Like an 8 window talker ect.
thanks, I love the site and the new pricing. I can now afford to use it.

What devices in particular would you like to see templates for?

Jeremy, I just sat down to do this... how many and what size picture cards would be on each of those?

I would love to be able to use this to make "social stories." It would be great if there was an option for 1 big picture/symbol on a page with a text spot at the bottom. Then if several of those pages could be saved together in a file -- that would be AWESOME!

Thanks for working on the templates for the talkers. I am on spring break, be back tomorrow and will send the measurements. The comment on pages to make social stories would be fantastic. It would be better yet to be able to combine 2 or 3 pictures on the page and have the abiltiy to write a text about 2 sentences long. I am sure that is asking alot. Thanks for all your hard work. Love the site. Will continue to use it if the price stays down. I can afford this now.

Hey all,
I actually have multiple pages in and working and that will be available to you all this week.
Susan, that is in the plans for sure. Just a question of when.
If anyone else has device templates that you'd like to see, please let me know in this thread. I'll need the model and brand of the device, and ideally a link to an existing template file that I can use for reference.
Eventually, you'll all be able to make your own templates but for now the process is a little raw so I need to take care of it.

I just put up Templates 15 and 16 which have one giant card. Does that do the trick for you?
Also, see my other post
http://mrsriley.com/forum/feedback/new-feature-multiple-pages-file-185
regarding the new multi-page features of PageBuilder. It's up and you can make multiple pages now. Please post any feedback or bug reports in that thread so we can iron out any remaining issues.
Thanks!

I would also like rectangular cards- definitely a Montessori thing! 5.5 x 4 sound great.
November 6, 2009 - 4:13pm
#23
I just put up 2 new templates that have 1"x1" cards. Templates 17 and 18.
The rectangular cards sound cool, but will take a bit of work... sounds silly but we're kinda locked into square cards for the time being. Not saying never, of course. Just not for a bit.

Oh and I also never posted that there's a 3x5 index card template now (#16) that has 3 cards.

I would like to see a template that is essential a to do list or check off list. For example the picture could be on the left and then a smaller box to the right of each box, so a child could check off when following the schedule, recipe, or to do list.

Is there a way we can create our own templates? If not, I would like to have more space between the squares on Templates 4 and 5. We laminate our cards and then cut them. It would be nice to be able to put a larger boarder around them and still have room to cut apart.
Are we limited to squares?

I would really like a template with 1.5 size squares. The 2 inch are two big and sometimes the 1 inch are too small for using PECS. Thanks a ton!

I woudl love to be able to superimpose pictures on top of one another. For example, I'd like to put a "no" symbol (the red circle with the line through it) on top of a bunch of the actions. Any way to do that?

About Mrs. Riley
Mrs. Riley was created so professionals, teachers, and parents could collaboratively make educational materials, starting with picture cards. If you've ever made a picture card with a custom image yourself, you know that it can be tedious. We understand and after going through it ourselves for so long, we decided to wrap the entire process into a single online application.
I would love some smaller card templates, maybe 2x2??
