April’s Bulletin Board

We have a bulletin board in our classroom that we like to decorate. I like to put a poem on our board each month and usually my mom does the artwork. This month I decided to let all the kids help. First I printed out a pic of a bunny on an egg and had the kids color them. I wanted it to be a mix media project, so they use colored pencils, watercolors, and charcoal. Then we laminated the bunnies and cut them out.

Next I had Autry color the background. She was so excited about this. She has never done the whole board before, although she often helps my mom. She spent a long time thinking about what colors she wanted to use.

Next the kids used rubber cement to glue their rabbits to the board. Autry finished the whole thing by writing Happy Spring. I still have to add a poem, but I haven’t found one I like yet. I would like the poem to be about rabbits or Easter. If you have any suggestions let me know.

Happy Spring everyone!

  1. Great work guys! A picture of Uncle Jimmy on it would have been a nice touch, but it’s nearly perfect.

  2. I love the bulletin board! Good job everyone—especially Mom. It would have taken me a week to just to take the board off the wall and another to think about what to do.

  3. Very nice!
