balloon bulletin board
By Kim

Clip to ScrapBook   
I have a hot air balloon bulletin board for the beginning of the year. I took the idea from the mailbox magazine.

I took a cute pattern of a balloon and used the opaque machine (like an overhead..but you do not need transparancies)
to blow it up really big. Painted it and stuffed it with newspaper to make it 3d. Used string to attach a basket too.

The kids each got a small balloon to color. They attach the basket with string and write a paragraph about what they are most looking forward to in Third Grade and attach it to the basket. This year I hope to take their picture and make it look like they are

sitting in the basket. (we shall see how it works out)

The whole thing is topped off with the title: "Lifting off to a Great Year!"

Hope the description does the board justice.

Kim
