It might be a good idea to construct this display around a white board or dry erase poster so that it's easy to change the agenda each week, but you could also use word processing software or pen the assignments onto pieces of paper to attach to the board as well.

Draw or trace {using an image found online and your classroom projector system} a large cauldron onto black bulletin board paper. If you're replicating Mary Ann's board, use this to trace and cut two more cauldrons, then add a bit of light detailing to the rim and side of the cauldrons using white chalk. Cut several lime green ovals to place at the top of the pots. Use a silver paint pen to create the illusion that the witch's brew is 'swirling'. Freehand, trace, or print labels for each cauldron {these will depend on what type of board you're creating}, outlining them with the same silver paint pen to help them blend in with the 'brew'. From the same lime green paper, cut different size 'bubbles' as well as several smoke curls to place around the top of each pot. Next, focus on the bottom of each cauldron, creating logs with brown construction paper and brown markers, then flames using orange, red, and yellow construction paper or card stock.\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/cdn.tristro.net\/uploads\/ideas\/post\/IMG_3299_Resized.jpg\" data-ad-id=\"post-content-link\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1107\" title=\"IMG_3299_Resized\" src=\"\/\/supplyme-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/post\/IMG_3299_Resized.jpg\" alt=\"witch's brew cauldron bulletin board idea\" data-pin-hover=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e2) The Spooky Creatures.
