Tips for Creating Your “Love is in the Air” Displays

• Plan your layout: Create a stunning centerpiece with the bulletin board kit. Use the classroom posters to extend your theme even further around your room. And choose ways to use the bulletin board letters like filling your room with positive, inspirational quotes or highlight subjects you’re studying.
• Add dimension: Use foam tape or adhesive dots to give the decor cutouts (like the hot air balloons) a 3D effect. Add cotton clouds or paper swirls for extra visual interest. Sprinkle the decor cutouts around your classroom, not just on your bulletin boards! Add them to your bookshelves, desk, walls, windows, etc.
• Encourage student participation: Have students write ways they can show kindness on the heart templates included in the bulletin board kit. Then add them to the display. Another idea is to set up a “kindness challenge” where each student picks a heart with a pre-written act of kindness, completes it, and adds it to the board. For example, “Give a compliment to a classmate” or “Help someone with their work.”

• Incorporate posters: Use the kindness posters to frame your bulletin board or display them throughout the room to reinforce your kindness message. You can also use these to decorate your door!
