Share your classroom walls!

In my classroom, I was always eager to find new and unique ways of sharing my students’ learning on the walls of the classroom. I used photographs, hung quotes from students, used actual students work, and about a zillion other ways to try to make the walls of the classroom reflect the work of the students within it.

One way that I often sought inspiration, was by looking to other educators who were working in similar ways (or with similar materials - like VEX 123) to see how their walls spoke the language of learning. I thought it would be really nice if this thread could be a place to share some of that inspiration with others :slight_smile:

How are you documenting, displaying, and sharing your students’ work within and around your classroom? Things you might want to post in this thread:

  • Share photos of your bulletin boards or classroom displays
  • Upload a video of your students’ explaining a project, and how you use that to communicate with your classroom community
  • Offer ideas you’re hoping to try this year to capture students’ learning
  • Share photos of a VEX 123 Learning Center in your classroom
  • Questions about how to make learning visible in your situation

I’ll tag a few folks to get the ball rolling… @Laura_Mackay, @Desiree_White-Price, @Tina_Dietrich, @Danielle_McCoy, @Anna_Blake

Here’s the informational VEX bulletin we posted in our hallways for the beginning of the year.

That looks great @Tina_Dietrich! The QR codes for easy access to updates is a great way to keep things ‘alive’ without having to constantly change the bulletin board! And it makes it SUPER clear to anyone passing that VEX 123 and VEX GO are a big part of what you’re doing, and why :slight_smile:

I am planning on creating an interactive bulletin board for 123 by making a large sized tile & printing out the buttons for the students to place on the tile. I’d like to possibly change it by theme or even monthly topics for the students to complete.

That’s a great idea! I can’t wait to see it!
