Hello, teachers! I’m sure you’ve been scouring the web and Pinterest for some new bulletin board ideas, right? Well, feast your tired eyes on this wonderful post.
For this back to school edition of our continual bulletin board series, we’ve divided up our welcome back to school bulletin board for 2013 into two categories: bunting ideas, social media inspired and of course, general back to school boards.
Each month, we do all the searching so you don’t have to. We have an incredible stock of bulletin board ideas already on the site from the past year divided up by season, holiday, and subject. Go grab a cup of something, and stay awhile.
We hope these ideas are a great jumping-off point for your own classrooms and hallways! If you create something you are proud of, please contact us! We’d love to feature your bulletin boards here on the blog, Instagam or on our facebook page!
First up, bunting for your bulletin board signs!
Second up, our social-media inspired bulletin boards.
