Make your own movie themed marquee bulletin boards. This one was created for Teacher Appreciation Week. It includes popcorn, a ‘NOW SHOWING’ marquee header, and film accents.

Marquee Letters for Classrooms

Marquee letters are one of the most popular marquee classroom theme ideas. You can make your own 3D marquee letters or use ready-made ones, and you can add large marquee letter cutouts to your bulletin boards. See examples below.

Decorate your DIY marquee letters: I love what this teacher did to these standing marquee letters. She bought the plain letters for ‘READ’ and added decorative paper to the back of each letter for them to pop even more. She created this look for her classroom library.

Marquee READ Letters: See more about these letters in this blog post about making READ letter displays for classrooms.

Create light-up letters or numbers: Add mini lights to DIY letters to create marquee letters.

I like this Marquee pocket chart for schedule cards.

These marquee Classroom hooks are for hanging up charts and for providing easy access to other things that can be hanged.

Marquee border trims: Make your classroom bulletin boards dazzle with marquee borders in different colors. The pictures also show a marquee classroom star border trim and a blue border trim.

These are marquee magnetic stars for a magnetic whitboard display. There are also magnetic borders for this theme.

You’ve got to have popcorn cut-outs! I also like the idea of popcorn erasers on pencils.

If you have decorations for a Hollywood theme, they can be used for a marquee theme too, if they have the right lettering.
