Word Walls in my Classroom

I loved our discussion on all the different techniques and ideas that revolve around word walls. Naturally, I think we picture a wall in the classroom that is designated for words to help the students. But I think the possibilities are endless and it does not have to be limited to a designated wall. Personally, I think my "word wall" will be on a wall, and I am leaning towards a Scrabble themed classroom. If this is the case, I will definitely make the large-scale Scrabble board that students can play with and make words out of with bigger Scrabble tiles. I also want the students to be able to touch the words or recreate the words, and to make this happen, I want a large roll of butcher paper hung on the wall for the students to practice writing the word wall words <-- this could be a station or an activity to do if a student gets free time. It's exciting thinking about my own classroom. Time is definitely ticking away and we are getting closer by the minute.
