How to Align Your Bulletin Boards to the Common Core

Here are some school bulletin boards.  The first version represents a photo of the original.  The second represents an update, aligning it to the Common Core.  In this day and age, I recommend teachers keep two copies of their bulletin work, each easily unrolled.  Post one copy to warm the hearts of your students to learning.  Keep another copy to be hastily unrolled when outside observers come to judge you and your students by standards that disrupt your learning environment.
