Bulletin Board ~ Teddy Goodness (post #1)

I had another fun week at school...
Our kindergarten classes didn't start until this week so our newest kiddos just started Monday.
Since we are still assessing the whole school and use that info (and classroom teacher input of course) to form the support groups I teach I was available to help out in the kindergarten classrooms.
The class sizes are bigger this year with 30 and 31 kiddos. Just getting them all through the bathrooms is an adventure. lol.
Here are some bears I made for one of my bulletin boards.
I combined them with some creations from past boards to create this one.
I'm going to add a few fall leaves scattered around to fill some of the empty air space.




*Bears cut at 10 in. from the Cricut Teddy Bear Parade cartridge.
*Birds cut from the Cricut 3 Birds on Parade cartridge. (not sure of their size)
*Pencils cut at 3 in. from the Cricut Locker Talk cartridge
*Cedar Mill Students cut at 2 in. from the Cricut Kate's ABCs cartridge.
*R cut at 3 in. from the Cricut Birthday Bash cartridge.
*o cut at 3 in. from the Cricut Cursive 101 cartridge.
*c cut at 3 in. from the Cricut Nifty Fifties cartridge.
*k cut at 3 in. from the Cricut Life of the Party cartridge.
May your day always be filled with love.
