Winter Bulletin Board

We had a day with a two-hour weather delay, so I came up with a quick bulletin board for winter. The kids wrote about a favorite book.

Fall Watercolor Trees

It was time for the quarterly behavior celebration, and I had the art club as usual. I found this idea on this website. A perfect fall project, and they turned out amazing (especially since I had 5 kindergarteners in my group - yikes!).

The whole group!

Thankful Turkey

It's always interesting to me what the kids say they're thankful for. I love pulling this turkey out every few years and doing some "thankful" writing!

Spiderwebs

On Halloween we had holiday centers with 3rd, 4th and 5th grade classes. I chose to do spider webs with paper plates and yarn. I was worried that this would be too easy, but it wasn't. It kept them busy the whole time, and many struggled with the whole lacing up and down concept. Once again, it made me realize how little exposure they get to arts and crafts! They loved the project, and they even helped clean up the huge mess we made from the hole punches and the spider rings (I cut off the ring part).

Fall Bulletin Board - Good Citizens

This board had to be quick and simple - We'd discussed good citizens in Social Studies, so this was a good way to display what they had come up with and incorporate fall.

Back-to-School Bulletin Board - Road Trip

Our principal set the theme this year as "Road Trip to Success" so my board kept with that theme. Each student had a suitcase so they could share what they were bringing on our road trip!

Fish Fractions Bulletin Board

Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is not my favorite day at school, but I know the kids enjoy it. We made heart fish, and they turned out pretty cute! You need two big hearts for the body, a medium heart for the tail, and a small heart for the lips. And an eye!
