"great bulletin board ideas"
By Tabitha

Clip to ScrapBook   
Last year I bought a 3d sun from a party store and gold star rope. I placed the sun with the rope coming out like rays on my wall in the hallway. I had "Look Who's Bursting Into 5Th Grade" posted above it. I cut out suns
from the die cut and wrote their names on them. My prinicple loved it and the kids loved the sun.
This year I am using a black and white checkerboard table cloth with different colored racing flags placed around it. I have a huge race car that I colored and stencilled my name on it. I have also colored and will laminate smaller race cars. I am going to put the title "Racing Into 5th
Grade" over top it. On the small race cars will be my new students names. I usually get my ideas from The Mailbox magazine as well.
I also used a bulletin board saying "I am dog gone glad your here" and I cut out a large hot dog figure with a list of condiments that meant different things. Ex. mustard-loves math, ketchup-loves reading etc. I gave a smaller hot dog figure to my students and had them decorate their hot dogs using the list. This also let me know who could follow the directions and use a key to do a project.
I also have a pretty big kid figure that I have them decorate to look like themselves. They have to write a paragraph describing themselves. We hang them outside in the hall with the title "Mrs. Cannatelli's Fabulous Fifth Graders". They love decorating a figure to look like them and seeing it in the hall. The writing gives me an idea of what I will need to be working on for writing. I hope some of these help!
