This summer reading bulletin board pinned by Patricia Galyen is super cute and, while it was originally created for a library setting, we think it has possibilities for the classroom as well! We absolutely love the three-dimensional balloons and think the reminder to continue reading over the summer is quite timely.

Don’t Blow It! Keep Reading!

• Background: Bright blue bulletin board paper.
• Title: “Don’t Blow It! Keep Reading!”
• Border: Reading themed trimmer.
• Decoration: Find clip art of cartoon children online, enlarging and printing their faces onto white card stock. Laminate to reduce wear and tear. Purchase colorful balloons at your local party store, blowing them up part way, and attaching one to each clip art face.
