This is the board in the cafeteria we will be adding the student appreciation notes to. There are a few samples up there already.  Shapes vary from balloons to apples to children, stars. Anything will work. We do have tape and extra shapes on the collection corner table & hope to collect them all after TA Week and give to each teacher as a memento.
