Your classroom is looking great!! From a fellow K teacher, just keep in mind that some of your alphabet cards don't use the best anchor word (for example- Tree for T actually starts with the /ch/ sound instead of the /t/ sound). Your kiddos will reference these cards all the time!
I had frames that fell and broke one year. I finally gave up! Last year I had things fall all year and some things stayed up all year. It can be frustrating! I use a variety of things to put things up with, but the best has been hot glue, sticky tack, and certain brands/types of tape.
Maybe take out the panes from the pictures so they’re lighter? I have mine just laminated and stuck on the wall, but the frames are really cute. It would be a pain to clean up glass in the middle of a school day though.
Looks amazing!!! Teacher of the year for sure!!
Mauvelous tape is amazing! Definitely recommend! Command Velcro stripes would be good for your frames
Try using stuff called Teacher Tape. Then things will be up ALL year. It works amazing on cinder block walls.

Is there glass still in the frames? Maybe hang them without glass and see if less weight helps?

If the frames keep falling, maybe just laminate the characters and stick them to the wall instead.
How about Velcro command strips for the pictures?
