Friendship Bulletin Board

I got this idea off of Pinterest! Super easy! First the students brainstormed words that define friends and family. I had groups of 4 make posters of all the words they could generate. I remind them to check spelling. I quickly check spelling and hung their posters around the room. Next, students write their favorite friendship words generated from the posters onto a 10 x 16 piece of white construction paper. They need to pick 20-30 words to fill the page. They can add little hearts if they like. I gave them a 6 x 6 red square and showed them how to cut out a heart. Then I had them trace their arm and hand on blue 6 x 18. To really make it pop have students outline the heart and arm in black before they glue down on white. Last, mount the white onto a black 12 x 18 piece of construction paper. Whole lesson took about an hour or so. Have fun!
