I am not sure why, but bulletin boards are probably some of my favorite things! I love to find neat quotes for them, fun borders, and the perfect background paper to tie it all together. In my classroom, I have four.
This first board is a mandatory school information and "teacher board". On here, I have a list of all the allergies in the center, our monthly menu, class roster, and proper table washing procedures. I also hang notes that I get from staff members and families, our current class picture, and "Praises for Young Children."
This next board hangs right above the changing table. I have our daily schedule, proper diapering procedures and our daily/weekly cleaning list.
This is the Parent Board. I hang our monthly calendar, daily schedule, weekly lesson plan, and my "Why I Teach" note here. I encourage parents to bring in interesting articles, questions, etc. to hang here as well.
And last but not least, our classroom board. I change this board monthly based on the themes. For July, our theme's were Fourth of July, Pets, Jungle Life, Reptiles, and Dinosaurs. I typically make my board correspond with the theme that I have the most decorations for and this month it happened to be the jungle! "Monkey See, Monkey Do. We Love to Learn, How 'Bout You!"
How do you decorate your bulletin boards?

I love bulletin boards too! Your monkeys are so cute! I have only one board in my new classroom and I'm not sure what I'll use it for as I'm used to having more than that.... I also have a hallway board, so that one will be used to display student work for sure.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a hallway board! I love that I have 4 boards but, I can not move any of them so, that kind of hinders the way I arrange my room.
