Bulletin Board
Ride The Animal Train!
Create a scene of animals riding an open train and reading books. Animals not riding the
train can be seen in the trees reading or waving at the train. To make the train, use small
boxes covered with construction paper. Animals can be small stuffed animals or puppets.
Nametags
Sail Away Boat
Cut out a rectangular shape from one color of paper and a triangular shape from another
color of paper. Glue the triangle to the long side of the rectangle so it looks like a sailboat
with the triangle on top for the sail. Alternately, use boat die-cuts to create nametags.
Displays

Display books, videos, DVDs, and musical recordings about planes, trains, cars, hot air
balloons, and trucks with an assortment of toy trains, cars, planes, train whistles, and hats
worn by people who operate these or other means of transportation.
