Here is a great set of free printable coloring pages of Jonah and the Whale.
I love bulletin boards. Have I mentioned that? I love making my bulletin boards art. I love putting art on my bulletin boards. Heck...I'll put almost anything on my boards! Here are a few ideas for quick and funky borders using some non-traditional items that you may have laying around your house. Poker Chips I use poker chips for several different things in my classroom, so I have quite a few on hand. They make a great border, don't they? If you have a metal edged board, you can use a glue gun to attach them. If you are working with a board with a wooden frame, the hot glue may damage it. Use glue dots. I like to layer them for more visual appeal. This bulletin board is a free download which feature the old national music standards. Poker chips hold spray paint well. I've spray painted them gold to use for the gold at the end of a St. Patrick's Day rainbow before and was pleased with the result. Boxes I did a movie theme in my room once upon a time. It was so fun to find new ways to use popcorn boxes and bags. They are inexpensive to purchase (I got mine on Amazon.) and could be reused. Popcorn boxes would be great for movie themed bulletin boards, popcorn words, etc... I have plans to do something similar with small Chinese takeout boxes with my Instruments of China board. Cards It seems that it is completely impossible to keep a full deck of cards at my house. Any kind of cards! That's okay, because they look GREAT as borders for bulletin boards. Uno, Phase 10 and regular playing cards work great for math bulletin boards, rhythm or time signature bulletin boards or maybe even a great trim for a bulletin board that showcases your daily schedule. This set is from a Go Fish set of cards I picked up at the dollar store. Love that they work so well with an ocean or beach theme. Kids love to stop and look for matches even when they are displayed on a bulletin board. Cupcake Papers This is one of my go to looks for making a display really pop. There are so many varieties of cupcake papers available that you can find any color and any theme that you may need. Flatten them out and staple them to your board. I've found that buying complimentary patterns and layering them can really be beautiful. When working with my rock star theme I wanted something metallic that would be a little flashy. It turns out that there is a cupcake paper for that! These little baking cups are so cute at the corners of my rock star alphabet display. I added some glittery foam stickers to embellish them a little. (Classroom teachers see the rock star theme HERE. Music teachers see it HERE.) Duct Tape It doesn't get any easier than this! Look at what a great job duct tape does to cover this older bulletin board. Check out your local discount store for tons of duct tape options. The bulletin board above is from my Number Posters - Rock Star Theme. This is another example of the versatility of duct tape. This is a light blue glittery duct tape. It is displayed on my Soar Into Music board. Legos This is SUCH an eye-catching display! The bulletin board is Minecraft inspired and the Legos (or are these Duplos?) go with the building theme. I used Scotch tape to attach them to my board. For some of the pieces I just laid them on top of one piece and then taped the next block on it so that not every block is taped. This may work better on a board that students can't easily touch. (Classroom teachers take a closer look at the board HERE. Music teachers HERE.) Pool Noodles Those of you that have been following my blog for a while know that I have a great love for re-purposing pool noodles. I've made ponies, steady beat swords and even workstations. I also just cut them up to make great bulletin board borders! For this fishy bulletin board I wanted them to imitate bubbles. I've attached them with glue dots. You could also use a low-temp hot glue gun to attach them. This bulletin board is called Making Music Together. Notepads They aren't just for note taking! I often use these little gems to add content to bulletin boards. They also make a great (and inexpensive) border. The iPod pad shown above came from Wal-Mart and the composer bulletin board can be found HERE. Paint Chips Paint chips are free and are a perfect way to add visual interest to any bulletin board. On the border above I chose to use two different kinds of paint chips and to create a pattern with them. Paint chips look just as great mixed up and stapled in any order. Staple them so they hang over the edge of the board and overlap. You can learn more about the Let's Talk bulletin board HERE. Plates Even more than I love pool noodles in the classroom, I love plates! When I packed up my room this year I marveled at my collection. I have Zoo Pals (photo above), baseball plates, basketball plates, beach ball plates, watermelon plates, heart plates, square plates, Santa plates and more. I also have colored plates in 3 different sizes and every color you can imagine. I use them for movement and composition activities, but LOVE using them on bulletin boards. I pick them up at discount stores, dollar stores and party supply places. Here are a few examples. The What's Cooking in Music board can be downloaded HERE. The watermelon plates are so fun! This year I found them in a larger, oval size. This bulletin board is part of my Music Burger writing display. Puzzle Pieces Shhh! Don't tell my daughter but sometimes I swipe her old puzzles for school projects! In this instance, it was a jumbo Barney puzzle that had several missing pieces. For the display below I just attached them to the board with glue dots. You might be able to use Scotch tape too. I have painted them before to match a bulletin board. Tissue Paper Like many teachers I have created flowers and pom poms to decorate bulletin boards. They have a huge visual punch and are relatively inexpensive to make. It's very easy to just scrunch it up together and staple it around your board. Creating enough tissue paper flowers to use around the edge of a bulletin board is also pretty, but time consuming. Braiding long strips of tissue papers creates an interesting look and lets you coordinate your border with whatever colors you may need. Song Bugs Bulletin Board Odds and Ends Really, I'll put anything on a bulletin board. I've used socks, fishing poles, candy, lights, my son's overalls and more. For this movie themed bulletin board I used a few View Master reels to accent the corners. Wrapping Paper In my bulletin board kits I often talk about using wrapping paper as a background for your bulletin boards. It can be found in many themes and patterns and often stays bright and colorful without fading for several months. Reversible wrapping paper can also be used to create borders. As you are stapling the paper in place, leave about two inches overlap on each side. Fold this down to reveal the back side of the paper and staple into place. What unusual things have you put on your bulletin boards? I'd love to hear about them or see a picture!

Thanks so much for supporting my efforts with this blog! My bloggy pal Hilary over at Raising Fairies and Knights started a fun new Monthly Crafting Book Club this year - a challenge to create activities to go along with some of the most beloved children's books. We're halfway through the year and so far, have really had some great fun: January - Animal Action Dice Game for the book Barnyard Dance. February - Cause & Effect Box for If You Give a Moose a Muffin. March - an alphabetical scavenger hunt for Dr. Seuss's ABC. April - handwashing fun to go along with The Piggy in the Puddle. May - 5 Little Monkeys Fold 'Em Up for Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed. June - pinecone princess & Cozy Sweater Warrior Paper Dolls for The Princess and the Pony. July - lantern craft for Curious George Goes Camping. Now it's August, and we all chose a different back-to-school themed book to focus on. I have quite the stack of great school-themed titles from my classroom, so I pulled them all out and had Gv choose her favorite. She immediately reached for Froggy Goes to School - that silly frog never fails to get her giggling, so I had already suspected it would be a major contender. We started reading the book, but after just a few pages, Gv ran off to grab this one to add to our pile: Froggy's first-day-of-school dream had reminded Gv of all his crazy clothing antics in Froggy Gets Dressed, so we went ahead and worked in a little activity to go along with that title, too. For the book Froggy Goes to School, we decided to make a cute little backpack for Gv's stuffed frog and then fill it full with school supplies. I printed out this freebie onto cardstock, then Gv drew her design and cut out all the pieces. She and I worked together to glue all the pieces on. (The mini-backpack, while the perfect size for our frog, did not fit the paper bags we had. We just glued this smaller backpack together on itself for her frog to wear and then made the larger-sized backpack to go with our paper bag. One of Gv's babies got to wear that one.) Finally, Gv went on a school-supply scavenger hunt around the house to find things to fill this backpack with. After all that crafty fun, we turned to our second Froggy book. I read it to Gv and then asked her to go find all the clothing items he wore during the story. Then, she grabbed a little friend and dressed her all up - remembering to put on the underwear first! {wink} Gv had so much fun with this, she repeated the activity three times throughout the day!
