This book is a great reference tool for educators. It contains seasonal illustrations of some of the original bulletin boards constructed by the author while she was employed by the Public School System. The displays have been truly eye-catching, and have won numerous accolades from viewers. Although many of the displays show essays and other topics, substitutions can easily be made.

Material appropriate for both general use and specific seasons throughout the year is provided, with plenty of possible slogans or phrases for you to choose from. And to help you get started, each grouping includes a thorough discussion of one example along with a picture and explicit step-by-step instructions for assembling the board.
