Build classroom community while creating a beautiful display your students will be proud of!
This 30-page black-and-white printable bulletin board kit transforms individual student artwork into one colorful collaborative classroom display. As students color and decorate their assigned pages, each piece becomes part of a larger artistic collage featuring the inspiring message:
"Creating Our Best Year Yet!"
Perfect for the beginning of the school year, after winter break, or as a New Year's classroom activity, this resource encourages teamwork, creativity, and classroom pride while giving students ownership of their learning environment.
Because every page is printed in black and white, students can personalize the display with their own artistic style, making every completed bulletin board one of a kind!
What's Included
- 21 collaborative student pages that create the completed background artwork and bulletin board lettering
- 6 printable border piece pages for students to color and decorate
- 2 printable hand-held mirror templates for student self-portraits
- 1 numbered teacher assembly guide for quick and easy bulletin board setup after students finish decorating
All pages may be printed as many times as needed, making it easy to adapt the display for any class size or bulletin board space.
