Road Trip Theme

So far I have decided:
I will have their pictures inside little cut out cars for my A.R. board.

I will decorate my door with old highway maps and put an exit sign made of green construction paper that says Exit: Room 35

I will have students make personal license plates the first week of school that describes them such as ILV2Swm and hang them around the room.

I am also going to purchase from creative teaching press the bb set called "Patriotic Road Trip Across America" they have some cute things in that set.

We are going to read Rules of the Road by Joan Hauler (I think thats her name) It seems like a good novel to begin the year.
We are going to determine our own road rules for the classroom the first week.

Also 1 bulletin board is going to be dedicated to "Cruise the Information Superhighway"--it will have computer border around it and I will take little webquests and web scaveger hunts and put them on colored paper, have them laminated, and hang them by a little ring on the board. The students who finish their work quickly can go cruising in this neat center. My laptops sit right by this bboard for easy access.

Do you live by Route 66? You can find lots of road signs- songs too. In the Cars movie, they have songs that you may be able to incorporate them in your classroom.
just some thoughts. Have fun!!
