The Blue Unity Strip (Control and Mute)

The Blue Strip is the visual anchor for the lower elementary child's formation in the Level 2 atrium. It is designed to help the child visualize the three great gifts God has given humanity. It orients them to look at the world and its history with wonder, gratefulness, and hope.

We created this material on a durable heavy weight cotton. It is designed to be hemmed (simple iron-on directions included) and can be rolled like a rug. Your students will like the cloth’s texture and ability to lay flat. You will like the ease of storage and durability. And yes, you can wash it.

This material comes with a control strip which hangs on the wall and a mute strip for the child's exploration which rolls and can be stored in a labeled pouch. Digital files of the images and cards are included. These use an easy-to-read type face and can be reprinted as needed. Paper stock, printing, and cutting directions are included.

As an option, we also offer the images, books, arrows, and extension cards in wood.
