MitchieSM, do you wait until opening until putting them in? I would imagine that sticky dots are a pain to re-position...

Like BayAreaSM said, the ones I use aren't difficult to move at all. I use the Avery 1/4" colored dots that aren't see through, because they're the ones I can find consistently in stores. And I tend to have a number of pre-used ones littering the insides of my binders from ones that have been changed or gotten rid of. So I always have a store of them that I can easily pull from.


If we're in the middle of something, and I've already written out a long cue, I just move the dot and leave the words until a break when I can rewrite everything back out. But I will change things around as I get more comfortable with it. Or as I learn that counting all the people in my warnings takes much more time and the list of people I'm looking for needs to be pushed back a page or two, so that I can still give the warning in the proper spot...

I love dots. Stick 'em on your jeans before you put them in the book. They'll still stick to the paper, but with the little layer of fuzz on the back, it means they're safe to move without tearing up the paper.
