Collaborative Posters
Students LOVE creating these collaborative signs that become colorful, meaningful classroom decorations!
Students each decorate their own piece. Then all the pieces come together to make a huge sign to display! These look awesome in classrooms, school hallways, the cafeteria, the library, the main office… anywhere!
Here are a few of the many options.

S.T.E.M (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) or S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) activities are an engaging way to get students interested in class. Many students may be surprised to learn that creativity plays a role in math fields. STEAM activities can allow students to apply the concepts they’ve learned in math or science class in new ways. While some schools are offering STEM classes, you may want to occasionally incorporate STEM or STEAM activities into your math class. I’ve gathered a few simple STEAM ideas that are perfect for engaging middle schoolers.
