Bulletin Boards
All Bulletin Boards must be updated by Friday, February 7th. All bulletin boards should have the Curley template posted with it. Please be mindful that the boards should have grade level work posted that connects to a content learning standard. This is a perfect time to update board prior to families attending a Family Engagement event. This is a great project for a student teacher and/or a set of responsible students. It is important that things are stapled up in all corners. Please note that you can share whole group learning (number talk, sample of writing process, response to reading etc....) The work does have to be perfect we prefer authenticity. Bulletin Boards make our hallways feel warm and welcoming and help us celebrate our students.
