I saw this pin and had a "eureka" moment!  
I have a hard time with getting enough time to complete closing activities in middle school but having something like this all ready to go for the SmartBoard or Doc Cam would do the trick!

I love the idea of having students create bulletin boards.  I am thinking something along the lines of having different teams of students responsible for various boards in some kind of rotation.  
It could even foster a bit of friendly competition!
