Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Name a skill they have not mastered yet and the specific action that will get them there, using the printed sentence frame

  • Restate an unfinished ability as a not-yet rather than a fixed limit

Teaching tips

  • Measure the door and cut the background paper before anything else, then use masking tape to trial the letter placement around the handle, locks and hinges — the kit's own tips page recommends exactly that sequence because the tape lifts and repositions cleanly.

  • The four supplied image sizes cover both routes: print and cut the letters at home from the 55-page set, or send one image file to a print shop as a single enlarged sheet.

  • The walkthrough's own advice on the largest size is worth reading before ordering it: a 36x48 print covered a whole bulletin board but was expensive to laminate, so it is recommended only for something that will stay up year after year.

  • The black-line version prints the same letters without the colour fill, which is the cheaper option when the whole set is going through a classroom printer.

  • Laminating the extra-size pieces lets them be written on with dry-erase markers, so the same elements carry different names or affirmations through the year.

Skills covered

  • Bulletin board assembly — teachers print and cut the individual letters and bolt elements, then join the oversized pieces from sheets marked right side, left side and bottom.

  • Large-format print ordering — the walkthrough takes a teacher through creating a print-shop account, locating engineered prints, uploading a file, adjusting Media and Fit Content to Paper, switching to portrait and checking out.

  • Display personalisation — the editable slides invite names and encouraging sayings to be typed onto the artwork, allow more than one name per bulb when space is tight, and note the images can be resized.

  • Growth-mindset sentence writing — students complete "I may not be able to ______ YET, but I will if I ______" on the frame page, naming both the gap and the action that closes it.

  • Reusable display setup — the extra-sizes page notes the elements can be laminated and written on with dry-erase markers, so the same pieces carry new names across the year.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

How large can the finished display be made?

Four sizes come ready as image files — 8x10, 18x24, 24x36 and 36x48 inches — for sending to a print shop, and the letters can alternatively be printed and cut at home from the 55-page element set. The walkthrough reports the 36x48 print at around eleven dollars and says it covered an entire bulletin board.

What can be typed onto the slide deck version?

Names and sayings. Its instruction slide reads "Add text/text boxes to the images below with students' names, encouraging sayings, and more", adds that more than one name can share a bulb if space is tight, and confirms the images can be resized to taste.

Is there anything on the display for students to write?

One page, supplied twice. A sentence frame reads "I may not be able to _______ YET, but I will if I _________" with three further ruled lines beneath it, and it appears once in the colour set and again in the black-line version.
