A super easy bulletin board to showcase student writing!  Set it up in minutes. It’s as easy as pie!

From the creator:

“The black background is black fabric from Walmart – bulletin board GAME CHANGER!

The pie writing activity was from TPT – and the students got to choose which type of pie they wanted to create.”

How can you use this board with your students?

• Have students create a human tally chart to show whether pumpkin or apple is their favorite pie.  Then, create the graph on chart paper or the board.
• Do a blindfold taste test of different types of pies and ask students to give words describing their pies – and then talking about adjectives.
• Create word problems together that have to do with pies.  Ask students to partner up to create a couple more and write the correct answer on the back of the paper, then trade with other partner groups to figure out the answer and self-check.

Pies, Pies, Perfect Pies!

Materials Needed:

• Black fabric background:  Easily changed out and can be reused over and over again.

• Brown craft paper:  Looks like a branch when scrunched up.

• Leaf Cutouts: Keeping the fall theme set up.

• Orange punch out letters and Brown punch out letters:  For your bulletin board title.

• Construction paper:  Mount student writing work on the varied fall colored pages.

Steps to Set Up:

1. Place your black fabric on the empty board.
2. Next, pull off a large sheet of the brown craft paper and gently scrunch it into a long roll.  Then, staple it to a corner and “wave” it up or down a bit, and staple again. Continue in this process until the bulletin board border goes all the way around the board.
3. Use the leaf cutouts to cover the staples from the brown craft paper “branches.”
4. Mount student work onto red and yellow pieces of construction paper.
5. Use the punch out letters to create your title:  “_______ (grade) is as sweet as pie!”  Position in the middle of your board.
6. Angle the student work samples around the title to fill in the remaining board space.

Make fall fun with a writing assignment so sweet it’s sure to please and then display the sweet show of student success!
