Word Wall Anybody? *Freebie*

Do you ever think about the words you use to name things as a teacher and what it might sound like to others?!?  I just got a giggle out of my "title" for this blog post.  Word Wall...what you talkin' about Willis? 

Graffiti? 

Nah...just that wonderful wall most teacher deem sacred for those high frequency words kiddos encounter day in and day out.  "You better know those words or Mrs. W. will never, ever do another somersault in class ever, ever again!"

My word wall needed an overhaul.  I mean, I DO refer to that thing every single day...multiple times a day.  "Isn't that a word wall word?  Shouldn't it be spelled correctly?" "Don't you stretch that word wall word out you just know it...in a SNAP" "Do you see this wall? {Picture over exaggerated points, hugs, googly eyes} it's full of some supertastic words".  All that fuss about this wall, but it really doesn't look like much.  I still had the old headers up there that somebody made for me...hmmm....10 years ago?!?  Let's just say they've seen better days.

So I put my newly honed talents to work and created some new ones.  Do you want to know what I like about them?  They are black and white.  I did that on purpose.  Well thought out.  Actually woke up in the middle of the night the other night and wrote it down on my to-do list next to my bed.

I thought they would look really good backed with either a color or with more black {sort of like my environmental print concept}.  My room is so colorful and eclectic - I'm not much of a theme person, so I thought using black and white for those really important items that stay up year-round might help them stand out more. 

If your word wall is need of some sprucing up you can pick up this pack that has three different font choices, two different frame choices and larger headers that spell out "Word Wall".  The larger headers can either match the smaller ones or you can choose this adorable one...

Edited: I added word wall headers for each letter with this same frame!!! Can you say CUTE!?!

There's also a bonus page included that I just know your kids will love...Spell It, Smell It!

I know you're loading your carts just waiting for that big back to school sale you know is just around the corner over at TpT.  Mine is F-U-L-L!!!!

Awww...shucks, I'll just toss out a little freebie...I'm loving my Spell It, Smell It and I just know you will too.  Just be sure to pick up some Scentos to make it complete!!!!  Don't know what I'm talking about?

What's something new you're planning for this next school year?  New decor?  New program? Daily 5? Cafe?  Isn't it awesome how we can reinvent ourselves and our classrooms each year!?!?

Hugs!
