When our school amalgamated our community revisited the school values, deciding on resilience, relationships and respect. I reworked our Performing Arts area ‘rules’ to align with them.
Posters and Charts
Lectern Microphone
Okay, this one will be pretty niche, but this is a small poster I made for the school lectern to encourage speakers to use the microphone more effectively.

Here are three posters sets from my classroom. The first chart in each set lists five rights children have as students. The second chart lists the relevant responsibilities these create.
