I created these parts of the coordinate plane magnets for my classroom, and I want to share the files with you so you can create your own set as well.
I wanted to create a reminder for my students of the names of each axis of the coordinate plane as well as how the quadrants are numbered on the coordinate plane.
I printed the magnets on two colors of paper, but you could easily print them on the same color if that floats your boat. I put disc magnets on the back of each piece to make them magnetic.
I also added a title that says The Coordinate Plane in a third color.
I’ve had a lot of questions about the magnetic coordinate plane. It’s manufactured by EAI Education, and it comes in four separate magnets that are assembled together to make the coordinate plane.

Hi! LOVE this idea; so practical and useful for the kids! I'm wondering if you also have the "The Coordinate Plane" sign (shown on your free posters blog post) available for download? Thanks so much! -Tejal

Refrigerators and freezers have long, flexible, magnet strips inside the rubber seals around the doors. It's easy to cut the seal with a box cutter to get the strips out. (Just don't do that on the fridge in your kitchen!) Recycling centers can be a good source. The strips can be cut up or can be used long to post posters, anchor charts, chart paper, etc.

I've just been using those free magnets to hold paper up. I never thought about cutting them to use in the way you described. GENIUS! I'm so glad I'm following your blog now. (Just wondering, is your new classroom bigger than the old one?)
