Hello my name is Angela and I am an early
childhood educator. I have a Master’s degree in Teaching, Specializing in Early
Childhood Education, a Community College Teaching Certificate and I am working
on an ED.S and a Doctorate. I have worked for Los Angeles Unified School
District for the past 28 years. I have worked with infants, toddlers,
preschooler and school-age children. Currently I work with 3 year olds.
My interest in bulletin boards stems from taking a professional
development class about how to and how not to set up bulletin boards. Bulletin
boards do not always have to be on a board, they can be on doors, walls, and
hallways, inside the classroom and outside.
I created this blog to let other educators see the many
different ways a bulletin board can be set up and used.
Using family pictures is a wonderful way to create bulletins. It enhances a child's self esteem. It also allows new students the opportunity to see their family when they are feeling unsure of new surroundings. Family pictures demonstrate diversity in a classroom. Plus when teachers use their family pictures, students can see that the teachers were once little themselves.
This picture was taken when I was three years old at Sears. This picture reflect four generations of only children on my mother's side of the family.
