St. Patrick's Day is a fun holiday and has some great bulletin board ideas. The leprechauns, pots of gold, shamrocks and rainbows associated with this holiday make colorful decorations for any bulletin board. To include the class in this bulletin board creation, they can make their own leprechauns, pots of gold, shamrocks or rainbows out of construction paper. A book about St. Patrick's Day can be read to the children and they can draw their favorite scenes from the story and hang them on the bulletin board.
An often-heard phrase associated with the month of March is "in like a lion, out like a lamb." This is a good basis for a bulletin board idea. The bulletin board can be decorated with lions and lambs with a calendar for the month in the middle. For every day of the month, the children can participate and put up either a lion picture or a lamb picture, depending on what the weather is like that day.
A holiday that is sometimes in March and sometimes in April is Easter. If it happens to fall in March, then this can open up even more bulletin board ideas for the classroom. The children can design their own Easter egg pictures and they can be hung up on the bulletin board, or you can give the board a baby bunny and chick theme and the children can learn about these animals through finding facts about them and putting them up on the board.
March is the month that has the official first day of spring. Some good bulletin boards ideas can incorporate springtime concepts, such as flowers and snow melting. The bulletin board could be made to be a flower garden and the children could write their favorite things about spring on flowers and add them to the garden.
