Monday Made It!



I am sure you have seen this pin on pinterest:
When I saw this I immediately pictured it on my classroom door this year! It is too awesome! So I followed the pin and found the original blog it came from: The Inspired Classroom. She has some awesome ideas on here and this is my fave! I am so excited to hang it up.

The author of that blog has made a google doc for this but it was just isn't my style. I love all the cool fonts out there so I made my own version with some different fonts. I am going to print on cardstock and take with me to Michael's to find some cute scrapbook paper for the border. 


 

Here are the steps to complete this project at home for your classroom: 

1. Click here to download my version of these phrases. 
2. Print on cardstock. 
3. Cut on black borders. 
4. Cut scrapbook paper to fit around the words as a border. (I am using black around the plain words and a coordinating color around the colorful words!)
5. Laminate. 
6. Hang and enjoy! 

I hope my kiddos are as inspired as I am when I see these signs!

  11. This hot air balloon is so cute. I started making the balloon, thinking I would make a string frame basket, but after seeing this, I'm making the paper basket. Fantastic!
