This is by far my favourite display ever! I still can’t believe I created something so cute. Definitely gender neutral and my pupils love it. This is a super cute display for Accelerated Reader, which focuses on percentage rather than words read, so it’s inclusive for all. I went for a star wars theme because I wanted it to go for a sci-fi vibe. I personally like to use hessian and matte laminating pouches, but this will work on a variety of backings. There are over 40 individual parts, including the heading. This display would also work for most reading tracking displays. I’ve also added a display plan of how I envisage it to be hung, but you can experiment with what works best for your display boards. Enjoy!
