The collaboration of this Famous Faces® poster makes an impact without saying anything. Every single piece of the poster matters—just as every child in the class matters. Your students will walk by and say, "I did that piece!” each time they see the poster. They take great pride in being part of this art project.
Differentiation is built into the design of this poster. Some pages have more to color than others, so some kids will easily color two pages. Other pages have a lot of little details to color. You can use this to differentiate and provide the appropriate experience for each child to succeed and be part of the group.
Poster Details:
- There are 3 rows and 12 columns for a total of 36 pieces.
- The final poster is approx. 21" x 84" when complete. The exact size will depend on your printer settings.
- This poster is ideal for a large bulletin board or a hallway.
- Each poster piece fits on a standard 8.5" x 11" piece of paper.
- Use markers, colored pencils, or crayons.
- The colors you will need are red, blue, purple, orange, and green.
- You can leave the background blank or use a light background color (explained in the resource).
2 Poster Options Included
I created two variations to make this as easy for you as possible. The final posters of BOTH are the same—the difference is the color key at the top—you do NOT need to print both poster options.
You have two options.
Poster #1: The first version of the poster has the color key in black and white with instructions and notes printed at the top telling the students exactly what they need to do on their page (see the preview for an example). You will need to print the page in black and white for this option. There are complete instructions in the resource for you.
Poster #2: The second version of this poster has the color key in full color. If you can print in color, use this option. It will be easier for students to know precisely how their pieces should be colored. It's also beneficial for younger children who might not yet be able to read and save you from having to run around the room reading the different instructions to the kids (see the preview for an example).
Other Options Included:
I have provided instructions for a few various options...
• Background color options.
• Option to have the poster with no title (replacement pieces included).
