94 Classroom Themes and Decorating Ideas

80 Classroom Themes

Creating a fun and productive learning environment in the classroom has a lot to do with organization. It also has a lot to do with how the classroom looks. A welcome, inviting classroom theme is much more likely to engage students than a sterile environment. Incorporating bright colors and attractive designs does more than just make your room look stylish. It also helps students to feel comfortable, creative and inspired while learning and working in class.

As the new school year quickly approaches, it’s time to think about what type of decorative designs are the best fit for your room. Determine what kind of message you want to send to your students. Often, the decorations you use in your classroom can be tied to a bigger theme for the year. For example, a beach theme can encourage a student to “Make Some Waves” and “Come Out of Your Shell.” With a safari classroom theme, you could remind students that “Learning Is an Adventure!”

Consider using one of the following popular classroom themes in your space at school. Each one can be used year-round and helps to encourage a positive classroom experience. Plus, we have options to work for a variety of age levels, whether you need preschool and kindergarten classroom themes or something that’s more appropriate for elementary or middle schoolers. Let these ideas inspire you to incorporate a creative theme into your classroom this year.
