Sports Classroom Theme

There are some real advantages for using a sports theme. It can be energizing, it gives you a natural lead-in for lessons on health and character, it brings up natural science, lit, and social studies connections, and it’s easy to decorate for.

Here are some of the ready-made classroom decoratives we like for a sports theme:

• It’s Fun to Be Fit includes girls playing team sports. Finally!
• Soccer Goals Bulletin Board does include girls. It lends itself to all kinds of goal setting, whether it’s a general hope for a good year or a way to keep track of who has memorized those multiplication tables.
• CTP Sports mini bulletin board has just sports gear, but it’s realistic and there’s a good variety of sports represented.
• Teamwork Works uses a sports theme to emphasize teamwork and collaboration — an important 21st century skill.
• “We Are a Team” is the centerpiece of Carson-Dellosa’s All-Star Sports set.
• One more team-centered set is Edupress’s We Make a Great Team bulletin board set with jerseys and sports equipment.
• Fadeless Designs Bulletin Board Paper, Team Sports, 48″ x 50 ft. because it’s so hard to find a good sports background sometimes, and because you can do all kinds of math things with it.
