Infuse Literacy into Your Math Bulletin Board (or door)…

Here is my door for this year.  I just finished it!  It took a lot of work, but it turned out so cute.  I took the idea from Greg Tang’s book The Grapes of Math.  I recycled the grapes from another project in the past to use on my door.  The grapes were made from purple and green construction paper circles that I glued together. I then punched a hole through the top with a hole puncher and put some green pipe cleaners through the top.  To make the vine tendrils curly, I wrapped the pipe cleaners around a pencil.  I recreated the grape vine with twisted brown bulletin board paper.  The grapes were made from purple and green construction paper circles that I glued together.  To stimulate math thinking, I added a copy of Greg Tang’s poem so that students will be encouraged to count the number of grapes that are displayed.

    Nice way to go back to the classroom, through this nice and colourful door.
    My door is empty, I would like to do something too.
    I just started the second semester one week ago, and I hope to continue decorating my classroom like you.
    One doubt… why hiding your name? you must be proud of all the effort and work you do for your students.
