Classroom notice boards are usially made from felt boards or corkboards so that notices can be easily added and removed with push pins. Traditional bulletin boards can be used if you hang dry-erase sleeves on them to slide in the notices, or you can hang twine with clothes pins to add papers to the bulletin board. The types of notices you can put on your classroom notice boards are important upcoming events and dates, a calendar page can be added with annotated sections, and shout-outs for birthdays and achievements.

Other than traditional bulletin boards, two other types of boards you can use to make classroom notice boards are felt boards and corkboards. These are soft boards that push pins can easily push into to attach papers to and cards to the board.

How to Turn a Dirty Whiteboard Into a Felt Notice Board
A teacher moved into a different classroom and the whiteboards there were atrocious and she was unable to clean them up. They had marks, scars, dents, and black sticky stuff. She bought three boxes of these felt tiles to cover them. She plans to use the space for pinning up instructional material and information with push pins.
Another teacher transformed an ugly whiteboard at her school to a felt bulletin board. First, she prepared the board by wiping with alcohol first. She had to trim felt boards a bit with a box cutter and a ruler to keep a straight line. These felt boards are very sticky on the back once you peel off the backing.
