Using Posters

posterDisplaying posters in your classroom not only makes the classroom look fantastic, but is also a great learning resource.
Here are some useful ideas on how to make the most of the posters in your classroom.

Colour posters

Make large blank posters for the following colours: red, blue, green, yellow, black, orange, purple, brown and pink. Students collect pictures or do drawings, label them according to their colour, for example, 'A blue button' and stick them on the appropriate posters.

Number posters

Children produce an illustrated 'numbers' poster, illustrating statements like:

I've got one nose.
I've got two legs.
I've got three brothers.
I've got four toy cars.

I've got five fingers.
My house is number six.
My lucky number is seven.
I am eight.
My sister is nine.

I've got ten toes.


My family tree


Children trace and colour a hand of each member of their family. They collect and label these pictures on a 'family tree'.

Our town

Children make a poster about their town with postcards, tourist brochure maps, drawings etc. Each item is labelled or has a sentence written underneath.


Be kind


Children in groups of 3 or 4 choose a theme such as road safety, kindness to animals, protection of the environment etc, and produce a poster displaying kind actions.

Animals


Make six large posters for mammals, insects, reptiles, birds, fish, amphibians. Children illustrate and label pictures and stick them on to the appropriate posters.

Countries and capitals

Children stick the names of countries and capital cities they know on to a large world map. If they can also find pictures, these can be displayed around the map and linked to the place by wool.

Things with wings


Make a class poster illustrating things with wings - butterfly, ladybird, bee, parrot, owl, plane, angel, plane, etc.
