Does anyone have any pictures of their classroom with the construction theme. This is what I have planned for next year. I have caution and danger tape that police and construction workers use. Also, an orange fence that the construction crew uses.


Main Bulletin Board: "Futures Under Construction"

Door to classroom: Hard Hats Needed...Great Minds Being Built


Job Wall Display: -Diggin in to Help!
DIRT Hill (name of job) and Shovel(student name)

I am not sure what leader to have!



Birthday Wall Display: Building Zone

NOT SURE YET?????





Calendar Bulletin Board: Town Hall

daily news, birthday, insormation, weeks, months, weather, etc.



Behavior Wall: Nailing for good behaviors




Classroom Rule Wall:

Pitch In! Help Whenever you Can (looks like a park sign)
Study Zone (looks like a no passing zone sign)
Friendship is a Two-Way Street (Two way street)
Stop Look and Listen (Stop Sign)
There is No Limit to Learning (Speed Limit Sign)



CENTERS



Reading Center Board-Build a Better Future-READ
yellow and white caution tape like they use to block of an area under construction (much like the police line tape)



Math Center: U Turn to Math (looks like a u-turn sign)



Writing Center: Keep Writing (looks like a merge right sign)


Art Center:Kidstruction

Housekeeping- ?????

Computer Center: Learning zone


Block Center: Building one brick at at time

If you can name any more centers with heading....just

[CageyBee]

Other center names:
Daily Schedule...Punch List
Snack area...Lunch Wagon
Coat Room...Locker Room
Blocks...Architect's Area

Our theme this coming year is "building our Futures, One block at a Time" so I plan to do a construction theme. I'd love to see some pics to get some ideas. At first I wasn't too thrilled about this idea, but it is growing on me the more I search. Thanks in advance!

I am a news teacher and I would love to do the construction theme could someone please send me pictures of their classroom. The ideas that are posted are great! My email is aneshahumphreyyahoo.com
Thanks!

I'd love to see some pictures. My school really is under construction and we're going to have open ceilings and people working in our rooms at night. I figure it's the perfect time for a construction theme in Kindergarten. Thanks! I love everyone's great ideas. I wasn't thrilled about construction, but this is getting me in the mood. I was thinking tool boxes from the $1 store might be fun for crayon boxes on the tables. I usually have each table share a plastic container of crayons.

My classroom is city themed. If you PM me, I can set you up with a lot of graphics/signs I made myself. I could even personalize them for your room if you want. Attached is one I made for our DIBELS letter naming fluency goal. Drop me a line.

That stands for anyone else in this thread as well. I have the sign files already set up as templates in Photoshop, so all I would have to do is change the text and save it as a jpeg.

of my room if you want to see my city theme. I have my room divided into areas that I made signs for:
Town Hall- big rug where we meet, read alouds etc.
Computer Store- computers
Library- leveled library and browsing area
Bus Station- coat closets
Recreation Center- workstation table I set different things up on
Learning Factory- my groups table
Warehouse- math manipulatives, supplies etc.

I also have all of my literacy workstations city-themed
i.e. Rhyming Road- rhyming
Alphabet Ave.- letter identification
Writing Road- sentence building
Handwriting Highway
First Letter Farm- beginning sounds
Magnetic Mountain- mag letters/words
Stretch It Out St.- decoding practice

I'm sure there's more, but I can't think of them right now.

Our building will be under construction this year - adding rooms. The theme for this year is "Under Construction for the Future" I would love to see the pictures and need new, fresh ideas.

I went to Dollar Tree today and they had two different construction borders there. You might want to check it out if you have a store close to you.

[chipmunk]

I also went to the Dollar Store and found the construction borders as well as construction cut outs and little orange cones.

my email is dsbjmbyahoo.com for the pictures and graphs to be sent to me.

Thanks

I am thinking of doing a construction theme as well this year. I would appreciate anything you can email: signs, pictures that I can print to go along with our theme this year. Thank you so much!

Can anyone forward the pics to me, I am also interested in doing a construction theme and being the visual person that I am, would LOVE to see any pics that people might have been passing around.

FYI: I thought of "foreman" as your teacher assistants or line leaders

Hi. I'm a first year teacher and our school theme this year is "Building Better Futures". It's a nice change from "Surfing into Success" these past two years (I was a resident sub and an aide at the same school that I get to teach at now). I need some ideas and some of these sound great. I would like to get some pictures to see some of it.
