We think you'll like our winter bulletin board ideas! Choose our
skating penguin or our happy snowman--or both! Be sure to scroll down the page to find various ways to use both displays.
Background: White or light blue paper
Border: Dark blue or dark green
Lake: Medium blue
Penguin: Use our pattern,
resizing as needed. Ask students to
color the penguin's scarf, hat, skates, eyes and mouth.
Variation 1: Students post excellent spelling quizzes and activities.
Variation 2:
Change the title to Skate Into Synonyms. Assign a different adjective
to each student. Ask him to write that word, along with several of its
synonyms, onto a winter shape, such as a mitten, ice skate or snowball.
Add these to the display.
Variation 3:
Use with any subject area, i.e., Skate into Language Success, Skate
into Math Success, etc. and post excellent student papers.
Here's a cute idea for early learners. Turn your bulletin
board into a word wall for almost any
assortment of wintertime words!
Background: White or light blue
Border: Any bright or dark color
Sun: Cut a large yellow circle. Add black lines with a marker.
Snowman: Use our snowman pattern,
or make your own.
Label each area of the snowman with a different category. If you like,
you may also divide the background into sections and label
each one.
Invite students to write appropriate words into each area
of the display with crayons or markers. See our example:
Sample categories include: clothes, sports, weather, activities, holidays, winter nouns, winter adjectives, etc.
