Here are some theme ideas the writers and other Rainbows sponsors had for using Rainbows Year 3. Themes promote continuity, provide opportunities to reuse projects, and save time decorating your clubroom or preparing for activities. Sponsors will be able to bridge several units without a need to create completely new bulletin boards or redecorate the clubroom.
Themes also create expectation and a preview for parents, club members, and volunteers.
Using theme corners or background habitats as a recurring decoration also helps stretch a budget or a limited Rainbows clubroom area. In addition, themes allow time for creating and including larger projects that require more time or expense than one unit allows. We have a few ideas to share, but there are many more of you than there are of us. How To Use Themes Decide which units work for your theme idea. Brainstorm about which units to incorporate to emphasize your theme.
