Encouraging Boards

Help me give my students beautiful bulletin boards to display classwork, holiday spirit and show school pride!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Biggins's classroom raised $306

My Project

Having bulletin board paper and accessories in my classroom would make a world of difference. Walls can go from being plain white to walls full of nicely designed educationally materials. Students are excited to see nice materials on the wall. When students walk down the hall and see creatively decorated bulletin boards they get excited. Bulletin boards add to the moral of the school. It shows students and others that teachers care. They can also be interactive for learning. These materials would be used to create educational artifacts in the classroom and hallways.

Help me bring a creative touch in my classroom and hallways, by providing the materials I need.

I can't wait to share artifacts that are created because of your generosity.
