Cactus Classroom Theme

Choose a trendy theme for your classroom this year: a cactus classroom theme. It works with your cowboy classroom, makes a great starting point for a study of biomes, suits a Spanish class, and looks great!

There are some very snazzy ready-made decoratives for a cactus theme this year.

Eureka has a bright bulletin board set with lots of great slogans. “Cactus makes perfect” might be a stretch, but there are plenty of others — and who doesn’t like a groaner of a pun?

When We Learn We Grow” is an inspiring growth mindset message.

Browse through all the options — there are plenty of choices this year.

An inflatable cactus will set the tone!
