I also have those dry erase work sheet books and they are great! I love them. I want worksheets to be able to send home though so parents can see their children's work as well though. I think I will probably make most of my own (I have some made already) but that's a good idea to photocopy the resource books!
It may sound like a lot of work for the calendar but it really wasn't. Those calendar sets are all just made out of paper and if you don't laminate then it won't stay nice looking long. The Velcro stickers are in place of sticky tack, which IS super annoying. The Velcro makes it possible for the kids to be the one to do the calendar. I actually have one of kids be the calendar time leader (being the teacher) so I need everything to be as kid friendly as possible.

If you buy the workbooks then you can tear out the pages to send home if you want.

Painter's tape isn't meant for long term use, in my experience the more expensive tape takes paint off the wall too if you leave it on too long.

I just use the sticky tack to put things on the wall, and move things around every once and awhile to make sure it doesn't permanently stick.
