Angry Verbs

This is one of my very first pins after I joined Pinterest.  I loved the idea from Teacher Time 123  so much that I absolutely had to try it out for myself. 

I printed out Angry Birds colouring pages and students wrote a sentence on the birds they chose.  They underlined the subject and circled the verb.  Once I had checked them over, they coloured and put up on the hallway bulletin board. Here’s the end result. I took the picture before all the birds and pigs were added.  It filled up a bit more.  I loved it!

It was so much fun for the kids and we got tons of positive feedback from the other students of the school.  One confused teacher (who had no idea what Angry Birds is) came to us and asked why we called them Angry Verbs and why didn’t we use Happy Verbs instead.  The class thought it was pretty funny, but they were very excited to tell her all about Angry Birds. I love play on words like this!  

This is one of my favourite ideas for bulletin boards and I will definitely be doing it again!
