Remember that the young kids seeing these posters are entering a whole new chapter of their lives, so you’ll want to make the classroom seem as safe and warm as possible. There’ll be time enough to teach them their A, B, Cs later on; you don’t need their thoughts on The Catcher in the Rye right away, either. Focus on adding popular cartoon characters, cute iconography and large splashes of color. If this is something that you’re hanging up at home, then you can personalize the poster for your child specifically – add photos from their time in preschool if they’re moving to elementary, elementary if they’re moving to middle and… maybe skip the embarrassing photos if they’re starting high school.
