Halloween Sky

Miniature silver star stickers on
black construction paper make
an effective background for a
Halloween bulletin board.
A witch on her broomstick looks terrific riding across this night sky.

Budget Borders

For economical new borders,
fold long strips of bulletin
board paper accordian style.
Trace simple coloring book
outlines onto the folded paper,
and cut out. For example,
trace pumpkins for Halloween.

Ghostly Greats

Here is a great October bulletin
board for displaying the students'
papers. Change often and allow
children to choose which papers
they would like to share with others. Encourage them to tell you
Halloween stories. Write them
down and display them on board attaching pics of ghost around
them and behind them.

Jack-o'-Lanterns

Cut bookmark size strips of
orange construction paper,
squares (3 inches) of green
construction paper, black
triangles (about 2 inches tall),
small circles of black, halved.
Arrange the orange strips
into a teepee shape and top
with the green square for a
stem. Make the face with
the triangles and circle halves.

Fall Tree

The children painted an entire page
using different fall colors.... one
sheet of orange, one sheet of
yellow, one brown, and one red.
Once the paint dried, I cut out leaf
shapes and attached them to our tree.

Halloween Bulletin Board Ideas

Going "BATTY" Over Halloween

(Photo submitted by Denise)

I love making these with the kids. They paint egg cartons...cut into sections of two.
This year we added big wiggle eyes to the tip of the cartons. This tied in nicely with
my letter of the week too--Ee. Lots of eyes looking at us. We help them glue the
cartons to paper bat shapes and then added them to a huge moon in the hall.
It came out great this year!

Boo Who?

Who's that friendly ghost? That's the question your little ones and their
parents will be asking when passing this "boo-tiful" hallway display. In advance,
take a photo of each child holding a "Boo" sign. For each child, cut out a pair
of identical ghost shapes from white construction paper; then staple them
together along the top. Program the front of each pair along with a different
child's Boo Clue, as shown. Then glue that child's photo to the inside. Arrange
the ghosts in a hallway display so that they can be viewed easily. Invite
parents to read each Boo Clue, guess who the child is, and then
check their guesses by peeking under the ghost cover.

Inside cover: Ghosts are scary. Ghosts say "Boo!" But this little ghost
Is special to you. Open it up and you will see, Who this ghost, Really could be!
Example, Boo Clue: Pepper is my dog!

Go Away Big Green Monsters

(Photo submitted by Shell)

With my older preschoolers, I usually do a day on Monsters. We talk about how monsters
are NOT real. The kids make up "monster" stories and we read the book "Go Away Big Green
Monster" by Ed Emberley. Afterwards, we create these monsters. I precut all the pcs. beforehand.

Bat Cave Display

To create this eerie bat habitat, attach crumpled black bulletin board paper to the wall
around your doorway. Prepare a cardboard sign (that says, "BAT CAVE"). Then insert
the sign into a gravel filled can placed near the doorway. Display student painted
bats around the entrance along with bat facts or student comments/quotes.
