Why Is It Important to Have Posters in the Classroom?
Looking around your room and wondering if you really need to hang up MORE things? Less may seem like more when it comes to classroom decor, but posters are an underrated learning tool for young learners.
By highlighting learning topics with engaging illustrations and bright colors, classroom posters educate and inform students just like the materials in a textbook.
Moreover, a good classroom poster can reinforce the lessons being taught and serve as points for constant learning.
Do Motivational Quotes for Students Work?
Looking for posters with motivational quotes for the classroom but not quite sure how to choose? Perhaps you're wondering if motivational quotes are really right for your students?
Science says yes! Researchers have found that reading an inspirational quote can give kids the same feeling as actually accomplishing something. What a wonderful self-esteem boost!
What Is a Good School Quote for the Classroom?
Picking the right quote for your classroom walls is going to come down to the tone you'd like to set for the year and the topics you'd like to focus on, but here are some general themes you might want to consider:
- Sustainability quotes will remind students to be kind to our Mother Earth and encourage them to be responsible stewards of the earth this school year (and beyond).
- Making a difference quotes will remind students that even though they're just kids, their decisions have an impact!
- Change is good quotes help students learn to be flexible.
- Quotes about feedback can help kids learn to receive constructive criticism.
Explore the whole collection to find the best posters for your classroom. We recommend you use these posters to encourage positivity and resilience and to inspire students as learners.
In addition to using them as decorations, why not add a frame to send home an inspiring poster as a gift for students around the holidays or at the end of the school year?
