Back to School Bulletin Board

I bet that most of my dedicated readers (i.e. YOU) are back at your respective schools.  When I showed up for the first time on Wednesday, I was ecstatic to learn that I was to be working out of a new room.  My old room was so small that it felt like I was working out of a converted broom closet, as it had no windows or ventilation. Pardon my exaggeration.  It wasn't that bad, but you get the idea...

My new room still needs a lot of love. For the past few days, I've been working hard to get it up to snuff.  One of my projects was to beautify my bulletin board. I was inspired by Ashley from Talk It Up. What do you think? 

Please note, I am not a crafty person at all. I just wanted to liven up the room a bit. The letters were made by me, I printed the letters on colored paper and cut them out (I'm on a budget). I purchased the cardboard popcorn containers from the dollar store, and found popcorn clip art and traced it onto file folders. To add a bit of a 3D effect I decided not to staple the containers flat onto the board and instead opened them up. I'm thinking of adding an "&"or a "-" in between "Speech Language" what do you think? What creative ways have you made your bulletin boards relate to speech and language?
