You may have seen them on Instagram. Light boxes in classrooms are becoming more common place and are providing teachers with another way to give your students positive messages. Read on to be inspired to light up your classroom too!Standard light boxes are about 10×13-1/4×2-1/4. You can find them in craft stores and discount stores like Walmart and Target. I love THIS ONE by Heidi Swapp. Shop around. You can find them on sale at various craft stores and online. Most light boxes of this size can use the same standard sized letters.There are other smaller sizes of light boxes called "minis" and these cute mini light boxes use a smaller letter. When shopping make sure that your letters will fit into your light box.
I like having a variety of letters in different colors and fonts. I started with just a couple of different letters and have added a few sets here and there. You don't need lots of variety to get started. You can do most messages with just one set.
Now, what kind of messages do you want to use? I've organized some ideas by month and a few funny ones at the bottom just for teachers!
