Year Round Bulletin Board Ideas

August 29, 2021 By Rachel Vincent 2 Comments

Year Round Bulletin Board IdeasThese year round bulletin board ideas are sure to keep you from constantly changing boards…I wish I had the time to change my bulletin boards regularly. When I first started teaching, I tried, I really did. But over the years, I just found that year-round bulletin boards are just easier to maintain. I still have a few things that change on my boards, but the overall look of them stays the same. Check out this post on how to make your bulletin boards pop!

Calendar & Schedule Boards

In upper elementary, we don’t typically have a “calendar time” but having a calendar is still beneficial so students can see upcoming events. A schedule is so important because it allows students to know what to expect.

Student Work Bulletin Boards

Having a space to display work is important. It allows students to take pride in their work but also allows visitors to see what kinds of things your class is learning about. I keep my student work boards really simple so I just have to change out the student work.

Goal Bulletin Boards

I love helping my students set goals in the classroom. So having a bulletin board designated to goals just makes sense. My students typically keep their personal goals in their notebooks, but our class goals are definitely on display.

Subject Bulletin Boards

I’ll be honest and say I don’t have designated spaces for subjects mostly because I only have 2 bulletin boards in my classroom. I do have a space for hanging anchor charts.

Birthday Display Board

Another thing I like to do is to display students’ birthdays. I used to take a picture of each student and put it on this poster I made. I didn’t’ really have a space for that so now I just add cupcakes with student names to this display on my back cabinets.

        The family project board sounds like a great idea!

I’m somewhere in between 🤷🏻‍♀️ Using data is extremely helpful when guiding my instruction but tracking it can be overwhelming sometimes
I started keeping it all in my teacher notebook and now it’s not too bad
Where do you keep your data? .

    Trying to keep a classroom full of students engage Trying to keep a classroom full of students engaged in your lessons can be challenging!
🤪 Especially this time of year!!
Writing on desks is my number one way to automatically up the engagement but making something a “game” is a close second!
What do you do to engage your students in your lessons this time of year!

    How many times does someone find a piece of a game How many times does someone find a piece of a game or math manipulative after you’ve clean everything up?
🤪 EVERY TIME!!
I used to just throw it in my pocket or desk drawer…never to be seen again.
Now I throw it in this bucket to put away the next time we pull the materials out.
But what I really want to know is what’s the most random thing you’ve ever found in your pocket? .

I usually take the month of January and focus on picture books during our reading mini lessons. There are so many great skills that you can cover with a picture book!!

Your students will have a lot to share with you and each other after break…so let them!
One thing I like to do is have this on their desk for morning and thenthem share with their table. Then we all do the “This or That” together. It gives everyone a chance to share and ease back into the first day.
All my students receive gifts so this version works for my class.  There’s another version that lets students share their top 5 moments.

    Think I’ll start with this one on Monday!! Yes Think I’ll start with this one on Monday!!
Yes I have students on Monday morning, no I’m not quite ready to talk about it.
But I am ready to talk about dreaming big and making goals. I’m an eternal optimist and can’t help myself!  So I try to pass that on to my students. There’s a lot of crazy in this world so I want my students to chase their dreams and live a life full of wonderful moments…even when life isn’t always wonderful. .

    I know it’s a little cliche right now…but…
🎶 I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling 22! Everything will be alright if you keep me next to you! 🎶
I’ve always loved New Years. I love the fresh start and the possibilities that another year brings.  Sure there’s a lot of the same ahead, but there’s also the hope of better things. ❤️
That’s my word for 2022…BETTER
My goal this year is just to be better than yesterday!
Do you have any goals for 2022? Do you do a word for the year?
