Patriotic Theme By Krissy

*I hung patriotic (red/white/blue) kites from my ceiling.

*Jobs board: Mine was "Heroes Help Out!" But, if you want something strictly patriotic, I would use stars and write the jobs on clothespins.

*Print out small banners with a Print Shop program that say the phrases to some famous songs like "Oh Beautiful for Spacious Skies" and "My Country Tis of Thee" and hang these above your chalkboards all around the room.

*Have each student make a windsock to decorate your room at the beginning of school. Roll up a piece of blue construction paper and glue white stars on it, hang strips of red and white tissue from the bottom of it.

*I hope this helps a little, I really am stuck in a "hero" mode from the summer. If you were looking for something more specific, feel free to e-mail me back.
