Classroom Visuals - CC and CRAFT

I have received a lot of questions about two things: Standards and CRAFT Board.

Well, I display my standard like this:

See them over there?

Since I have multiple grade levels in my room during the course of the day, I need to have them all visible. And of course, I want to make sure it look good while being visible.

Here are is the standard my second graders are working on. The blue things are our essential questions. My standard page might be up for a long period of time. My essential questions change every day or so. I use essential questions to focus my students' learning within the standard.

Here is the standard for 3rd grade. You can find them {HERE}

I have just attached them to a magnetic bar I have had since college. I think it is from IKEA. The magnetic dots are called, Magnetic Hold Its and I buy them by the truck load from amazon.

My CRAFT board looks like this:

It takes up the top half of my white board. The pocket charts are from the Target Dollar bins.

I keep the extra CAFE strategy cards under the pocket chart.

I also labelled the back of each strategy card to keep it all straight!
