Bulletin Board Bonanza!

If you join me here very often you know I love three things- STEM, Reading, and...

BULLETIN BOARDS!

That's right. I love creating bulletin board displays. Here are some of my latest creations!

Science Bulletin Boards! Templates for four boards with great ideas for elementary science displays and projects for classroom teachers. Images are included to customize your boards by printing letters and designing your own displays. Easy and fun ideas to add a science bulletin board to your classroom!

Those little square boards are just too much fun!

Now, before we get too far into the story behind my new boards, let's take a look at some previous wonders I made!

The Science Octopus

This one was made using just loops of paper and I had kids make the loops, so that made it easy. I cut the letters with a die-cut machine so the font was rather boring. The arms of the octopus are holding science tools.

The Diver

This one was so fun to make. The diver is cut from a large garbage bag. I had a student lay down on the bag and I traced around him and then cut it out! The seaweed strands each have an end-of-the-year event written on them and this was our countdown board one year!

The Mad Scientist

This was our absolute favorite one and I made it twice. The first board had a lot of piping and was labeled "Mad Science". When I took it down I recreated it into the above board. You can read more about this one in two places:

The Truth

Those boards above are really spectacular, but it took a while to make them. So, I finally came up with a solution to make this process easier for me!

Two things:

Templates for the letters
Colorful printed illustrations

The Good News

You can make these, too! Take a look!

The template includes the letters in two sizes. I also included an illustrated poster to show one way the board can be set up. All you have to add is your own border, some cute things like that pom-pom garland, and maybe the atom I created. It is just made of string and pom-poms!

All you have to do is decide what color of paper you want the letters on, print them, and cut them out. I would use cardstock and laminate them so you can reuse the letters another day!

The board above has some beakers added to it and those are included in this resource. I added some honeycomb shapes to the beakers and those were purchased at Target in the party section.

Don't you love the bright colors of this one! The ribbon garland and the pom-poms were things I added. (Target again) The test tubes come in the resource.

We also love this one! The superhero and the hero words are included, but I added the garland and that large orange honeycomb sphere!

I am telling you, folks... I love making bulletin boards, but I also love having extra time. So these ready-to-make boards are a lifesaver! Just print, cut, staple, and enjoy!
