Fall Bulletin Board Kit

This kit covers one classroom board or door for the whole autumn. The headline letters print one to a page, each close to 6 inches tall with a cream edge, so they are quick to cut and easy to read from the back of the room. A planner page lists the letters for four headlines, from Fall Into Learning to Thankful For Our Class, and the full alphabet lets you spell your own.

Around the headline go the border strips (three scalloped designs, a leaf garland and a row of pumpkins, four strips to a page) and the name pieces. Each maple leaf, pumpkin, acorn and leaf carries a small cream label, so every student gets a piece with their name on it. Eight plain outlines are there for students who want to color their own.

For the middle of the board there is a large pumpkin split over four sheets. Trim the edges where the sheets meet and tape them from the back, and it comes out about 14 inches wide. The palette stays with muted rust, mustard, olive and pumpkin orange.

Choose Actual size (100%) when printing. Cardstock between 65 and 110 lb keeps the letters and cut-outs flat on the board, and laminating helps if the display stays up past a month. Print only the letter pages your headline needs; the planner page counts them for you.
