Bulletin board decoration sets a tone

Set up a warm and inviting learning environment, with classroom bulletin board decor that highlights events, seasons, achievements, and responsibilities. The bright visual cues appeal to elementary-age children, and are easy to apply and remove from surfaces. There's a plethora of designs, including animals, popular characters, food, and superheroes, and ones specifically tailored to certain subjects, such as music instruction or sign language. Simply putting border strips around a poster, project, or window elevates plain walls and creates a distinctive impression. Choose a repeating pattern, or combine different motifs.

Bulletin board sets are practical learning tools

Bulletin decorations can be incorporated into lessons and can help teach concepts and rules. Job charts attached to ribbon strips and calendar charts with weather symbols can make it more fun to understand everyday tasks. There are decorative bulletin sets that can be used by themselves or with standard cork and fabric bulletin boards. Options for these flannel and cardstock crafted pieces include telling time, event sequencing, ABC's and common words, and expressing emotions. There are also blank bulletin board decoration cut-outs to customize names or lessons and bilingual labels for teaching another language.
