Monuments Around the World: Free PowerPoint/Slideshow to match my table signs
My classroom theme this year is Monuments Around the World. I made seven signs that hang up above my tables. They are color coded so I can call a table by color, and they each feature a famous monument...so I can also call the Eiffel Tower table. Using something besides the color to call a table switches it up a bit, and creates teachable moments. In the past I have used artist names, works of art, planets, sea creatures, and even zoo animals!
In conjunction with my signs - I put together this super basic PowerPoint that displays each table color and sign, and then lists a few facts about the monument. It has been a good introduction to the monuments and the kids have been receptive to learning about their team sign.

Table and Classroom Signs with a Graffiti/Monuments of the World theme now available on Teachers Pay Teachers
My classroom theme for this year is "Monuments of the World" and I chose some graffiti fonts to kind of fit in with my new signs. I spent a few hours downloading, cutting, and pasting in PhotoShop to make these new decorations.
This set includes 1 .pdf file with twenty-one 8.5 x 11 signs
The signs are:
Art

Red, The Taj Mahal
Orange, The Eiffel Tower
Yellow, The Colosseum
Green, Big Ben

and Bonus Black with Pink, The Sphinx
Once printed, these can be mounted on construction paper or tagboard and hang above your classroom tables.
