The Teacher's Corner Resources Our Favorite Books
Our Favorite Books Bulletin BoardIntegrate some technology into your reading class. Use the software program called Comic Life to help your students create book reports on their favorite books. Allow them the chance to take photos of the book’s illustrations to include in their document. Within the speech bubbles and caption boxes, students will write their information. Elements to include in the book report: title, author, characters, setting, and main events.
EXTENSIONS:
Instead of having your students take photos of the book’s illustrations, have them access a copyright-free online photo resource to find photos for their report. Here are a couple of sites to get you started: http://www.pics4learning.com and http://search.creativecommons.org/

The Teacher's Corner Resources Fiction to Film *NEW* Grades K-5

Fiction to Film Bulletin Board
Fiction to Film 2 Bulletin Board

The library theme for the entire school year was “Fiction to Film.” The background for the bulletin board was a marquee with poster frames on each side. Each month featured a different genre and I changed the posters to coincide, one side the book and the other the film. If I didn’t have posters I would display books or video cases.

The Teacher's Corner Resources Blown Away by Reading Grades K-5
Blown Away by Reading Bulletin BoardThis is a great bulletin board or display to make during the Spring. (Reading can need a little motivation this time of year.) Draw and cut a large blowing cloud. Have the kids make their own kite by using black construction paper for the frame work and then add colored tissue paper to fill it in. As the students read a book, they add a triangle shape to the tale of their kite. On the the shape, they write the title and author of their book.

brown bear bulletin boardPrior to creating the bulletin board (left photo), you will want to read each book to your students. Make a copy of each book's front cover. Finally, create your headings and venn diagram. After reading the books, students will vote for their favorite book. They will write their name in the appropriate area of the venn diagram. You can use any type of background paper or fabric for this bulletin board. You could also have students write statements about the books and/or their reasons for liking a specific book on sentence strips and add them to the display.

The Teacher's Corner Resources Moonbear Grades K-2
A bulletin board that I have done ties into my Moonbear theme at the beginning of September. Outside of my classroom I have made a five foot Moonbear using my overhead. He is from one of his books where he is looking up into the sky. I use green paper on the bottom to make it appear that he is up on a hill. On my door which is covered in dark blue paper I have placed fairly large stars. On each star I have written the name of a student. I go over each name with silver glitter. It looks adorable if I say so myself!! The children love looking for their name. In October the scene changes and the children take their star home for their bedroom.

The Teacher's Corner Resources Year-Long Book Shelf Reading Record Grades K-5
It's a BB that will last all year, to show books we have read in class, either by me, the whole class or during Silent Reading. To start, I made up a BB to look like a book shelf. I will put a coffee can below it, full of different color paper strips, cut about 7"x2", but not all the same size. We will make a key, so that each color will represent a different genre (mystery, history, non-fiction, etc.). As a student finishes a book, s/he will take the correct color strip and write the title of the book on it. They can also put 1, 2, or 3 stars at one end, to show how much they liked the book. Then it gets stapled on the "shelf" so that it looks like a book on a shelf. This way, students can get ideas on what to read and will show visitors what great readers we are. By the end of the year, it will look great.

The Teacher's Corner Resources Board for the book Snowballs
I had the students work in cooperative groups and I gave each group a cutout of a large snowman (or woman) with no features. After reading the book "Snowballs", which shows how you can create different paper snow people, they were instructed to create a cooperative snow-person. They came out great! I gave each group also strips of different colored paper and told them they could only use paper, no crayons or pencils. Buttons would be nice add ons, too. The only rule was each person in their groups were to be responsible for at least one feature of the snow-person. The bulletin board looks beautiful and very colorful!!!
