This mock-up pulls its color scheme and inspiration from the popular home improvement store, Lowe's, and can be tweaked to fit a multitude of objectives!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHere are a few ideas...\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 13px;\"\u003eFill the board with tool cutouts {as shown above}, using each shape to highlight a different skill your kiddos will build in the coming year, the qualities of great learners, the subjects\/specials your kiddos will encounter, etc.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNix the tool idea and have a fun first day of school photo shoot! Provide students with a Lowe's vest or apron, some safety goggles, and a tape measure {or other prop!} and snap a picture of each new student. Arrange the photos on the board - perhaps adding fun borders to the photos {i.e. nuts and bolts, l-square rulers, levels, etc.} - and add a name plate underneath. Again, the name plates could be small tool box, apron, screwdriver, etc. cutouts!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA simpler route - create Lowe's vest cutouts, one for each student, and use a white paint pen to print their names on the cutouts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eBuild \u0026amp; Grow in Kindergarten!\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 13px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBackground\u003c\/strong\u003e: White bulletin board paper.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTitle:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"__________ [Teacher's last name]! Build \u0026amp; Grow in __________ [Kindergarten, Room 203, etc]!\" - The Lowe's logo and children's program slogan were the inspiration for the title. We suggest using maroon and dark blue bulletin board paper to create the traditional gable background of the logo. While the mock-up above shows a simple rectangle, the gable should be pretty simple to create as it consists mainly of simple shape and clean lines. The teacher's last name replaces \"Lowe's\" in the cutout and the rest of the title can be created using traditional bulletin board letters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBorder:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid maroon trimmer to mimic Lowe's colors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDecoration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Find tool clip art to print, cut, laminate, and display.
