I'm super proud of my new To Kill A Mockingbird board! I accredit my sorority for making me talented at decorating walls... :)
I wanted to get students excited to read this novel by linking it to other novels they might have enjoyed. AND I gave them a cheat sheet right on the wall for themes for this books. Plus it just looks so darn cute!

The books I listed were: Hunger Games series, The Kite Runner, Monster, The Glass Castle, Night, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-time Indian, There Are No Children Here, The Book Thief, The Outsiders, A Time To Kill, The Help, My Forbidden Face, The Secret Life of Bees, The Giver, and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.
My plan is to try making a display like this for all of the novels we are reading this year. I want to be sure to include contemporary books that the students are familiar with in order to activate prior knowledge. Share your favorite novel displays below! I am always looking for new ideas and new crafts.
