Teaching tips & learning objectives
Teaching tips
Measure the door and cut the background paper first, and note where the handle, locks and hinges fall so the finished layout does not sit across them
Lay the words out with tape before committing: the tips page suggests masking tape for moving pieces around freely, then painters tape stretched across a whole word to hold its alignment while it is glued or stapled
Glue sticks are ruled out on the tips page as not adhering well; heavy-duty masking tape, Scotch tape or Elmer's glue are named instead, with a warning that tape will mark the background paper
Ordinary printer or copy paper is recommended over cardstock because it sticks better, and the letters do not need cutting to perfection once they sit against a dark background
Laminate a set of the extra-size donuts to reuse them with dry-erase markers, or run the black-line donuts so every student colours their own for a whole-class kindness display
A painted black door removes the background-paper step entirely and makes the colours stand out - the tips page raises it as the long-term option for anyone decorating a door often
Skills covered
Display assembly - teachers measure the door, cut background paper around the handle and hinges, and lay out the word pieces with tape before fixing them down.
Enlarged print production - the walkthrough takes a teacher through uploading a sized file to a copy shop's engineered-print service, choosing colour, fitting the content to the paper and setting portrait orientation.
Personalising a display - the slide deck version of the donut images is set up for adding text boxes carrying students' names or words of encouragement, with images resized to fit.
Student participation in a kindness display - black-line donuts let each student colour their own piece, and laminated donuts can be written on with dry-erase markers and wiped clean.
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
How does the same set work as both a whole door and a small poster?
Four ready-sized versions of the design are supplied - 8x10, 18x24, 24x36 and 36x48 inches - so the design can be sent to a copy shop at whichever size the space needs. If no shop nearby will run an enlargement, the individual word, donut and sprinkle pieces can be printed on ordinary paper and assembled by hand.
Can the donuts be personalised with student names?
Yes, in two ways. A PowerPoint version of the donut images opens with the direction "Add text boxes/text to the images below with students' names, words of encouragement, and more", and the extra-size donuts can be laminated and written on with dry-erase markers instead.
What actually holds the letters up?
The tips page is direct about it: glue sticks do not adhere well. Heavy-duty masking tape or Scotch tape is the author's own choice, with Elmer's glue as an alternative, and painters tape used across each word to hold the alignment until the piece is glued or stapled.
