Happy Holidays! Sharon Coppersmith, North Edison, New Jersey Grade Level: Kindergarten

This bulletin board was on display during the month of December to showcase the three holidays that fall in that month. Each holiday represents the diversity in our classroom because of all the different cultures that our students come from.

This bulletin board serves as a learning tool because not only does it display the children's art but it also reinforces certain aspects of the holidays which meaning we had discussed, such as the Hanukkah menorah, Kwanzaa fruit plate, and gifts under the Christmas tree. The children also learn through animation. We chose to include a scene from the Christmas classic "Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown!" to add fun to the learning process. This bulletin board served another purpose; it helped get everyone into the holiday spirit!
