How I use these wrist bands in my Stringosaurus classes...
Ever had the student who doesn't believe in himself or gets easily distracted? Oh my! I have and if not dealt with in a positive way, they can impact your class. This is why I teach children violin and teamwork philosophy!

I start off by drawing my class as a circle...(the middle circle). When they make beautiful music, playing the same thing at the same time, they make sound waves (the lines coming from the middle circle). This forms the harmonious large outer circle. 
But, if one child decides they're not important in the team, and decides it won't matter if they do their own thing, their line goes out of the circle and causes the outer circle to explode. The sound is not nice.
This is where these wrist bands tie in... With positive messages, they remind my students that each and everyone is important and it's important to try your best.
These wrist bands can be used in the following ways...
1. To remember which is the left hand and which is the right
2. To remind students to try their best at all times and to work as a team
3. Wearing the wrist band can help with the left wrist alignment. Make it too big and see if it slides down the student's arm and doesn't get stuck (if the wrist has the tendency to be pushed out or in). This works best when wrist bands are on firm card to keep their shape.
