End of the Year Bulletin Board






Well, this may be my new favorite bulletin board!!!  With only 30 days left in school, we decided to go ahead and put up our end of the year board.  We usually do something about going to second grade.  Thanks to Maddie (She is in the last picture), my class has been obsessed with Angry Birds this year, so we only saw it fitting to use them on the board!  I love the way it turned out too!  On the white pieces of paper, the students wrote "In 2nd Grade, I want to learn....".  I labeled the pigs as our principal and two second grade teachers.  Then the students made their own Angry Birds.  I gave them the basic shape and some extra construction paper.  I had pictures of Angry Birds projected onto the board for them to use as a guide.  The birds turned out so cute and they are so different, but you can definitely tell they are Angry birds!!  We used pipe cleaners on the back of the birds to make it 3D!  We had the board finished Tuesday afternoon, and Wednesday morning, the kids went nuts!!  Priceless!!

  3. I actually had my kids make the birds. I just had patterns for them and I posted pictures for them to see. You could probably find some patterns on the internet somewhere!
