Themes:  STARS

This is a neat way to showcase a performance group or even just a class that has just finished performing in a concert. Use black paper or aluminum foil for te background and add stars cut out of yellow construction paper. Add the students name with a glitter pen, glitter or just a magic marker. Title the bulletin board "Star Performers" or as an encouraging bulletin board maybe "Reach for the Stars" or "Catch a Rising Star" or something. In the bulletin board above, I used a printout of a little alien village and added comets and other spacey things with the stars.

O Say Can YOU Sing?

This fun bulletin board was posted in the main hallway.  On the left are partial lyrics to some famous patriotic songs.  On the stars (which are backed with shiny silver wrapping paper) are the names of the song and their composer.  I used some interesting fonts to add to the detail of the board.  See the close-up for a better look.  Also check out the fonts page for links to some awesome font websites.

The stars on this bulletin board contain melodies that move in various directions.  The title says "Catch a Rising Star"  and in the corner "Which of these starry melodies is getting higher.  The stars can be purchased at the teacher store (you add the melodies) or printed from your favorite desktop publishing program.

This bulletin board was designed to highlight "star" songs.  Each of the large stars has the name of a song with the word "star" in it.  For example:  "Swing on a Star", "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" and so on.  The rest of the board is a snap to make.  Take pieces of construction paper in building-like colors and cut rectangles for windows and glue on.  Use black or gray for dark windows and yellow or white for windows that are lighted.  You could even use cardboard or aluminum foil for the buildings to add a little more interest.  Go 3-D by wrapping shoe boxes or cereal boxes in paper and attaching to the board.

Shining Stars

This celestial bulletin board is fast and simple to create.  This example uses an already made kit, but it could be easily duplicated by printing stars from a desktop publishing program or by cutting them out of construction paper or foil.  Add student names to the stars and the heading "Shining Stars".
