Our first project was to design a reading incentive button for students. We used MS-Publisher to design the buttons and an old fashioned button maker to press the buttons. The hardest part was to the design process was making sure our dimensions were correct. We needed to have 3.25" circles -- sometimes we had resize them. We used copyright compliant images too. Pressing the buttons was very tricky...if you didn't apply even press the paper with the image and the plastic top coating slipped. And, it was re-print and re-press! Whew....Mrs. Schager finally had to take them home to have Mr. Schager do it! But, in the end they came out great!
