Thread: Welcome for my classroom

I made this just before school started to hang in my classroom and welcome students. I thought it would be bright and cheerful. I had seen the half-and-half block technique in a magazine and liked the idea. This is all my own design, however. I used my cricut to cut out the suns and the lettering and machine appliqued them. Really enjoyed doing it and having it up but it is time to make a winter version for variety. I have an idea with snowflakes and trees.

Very cute. What do you teach? I taught 4th and/or 5th grade for nearly 30 years.

I teach high school math. I have also taught computer science but not for some years now. Last two years I taught high school gifted and talented class as well as math. Could pretty much write my own curriculum. Did a medieval theme one year and multicultural last year. Just as I was getting it going they dropped the program so I am back to math only. If they ever get our clubs going I will be doing a craft club. Quilting mostly.

Cute wall hanging. Love how cheery it is!

Pretty wall hanging

cute. I love seeing what my son's teachers are into, so I'm sure your students and their parents are enjoying your banner as well.

That's really cute!! Very welcoming for the kids.

You are a good teacher. Teaching is a gift for God.
