Essential questions highlight the usefulness and relevance of a standard/unit. They help students focus on the big picture of what you are working on in your classroom. This resource includes essential question posters (8.5 x 11) that cover all the ELA and Math Common Core Standards. The posters are full of adorable graphics that are sure to get your students' attention! Also included are 5 different styles of subject area labels to help you display the posters.
***I will update {free of charge} this product to include the science and social studies essential questions as soon as the Common Core standards are released for these areas:)
Thank you for visiting my store! Please let me know if you have any questions about this product.
These Second Grade Common Core Essential Question Posters will be very helpful in the aligning of curriculum work my school will be engaging in this school year - thank you!
Thanks, I love having some essential questions ready to go! You've saved me from reinventing the wheel!!!

Love these. Any ideas for a bulletin board title? I plan on using these on a daily basis so my kids and principal know what is happening in my classroom.
Ask Anna Brantley a question. They will receive an automated email and will return to answer you as soon as possible.

Hi Do the essential questions all begin with how? In our district all open ended questions are needed...
The Common Core standards for these subjects haven't been posted yet for me to make posters. I am waiting for them and as soon as they are released, I will make the posters ASAP! SO sorry about the wait!

Hey there! Thanks so much for your purchase! So sorry you are having problems opening the file. Try the troubleshooting tips below and let me know if you can't still opening the file.
1. Make sure you are using an up to date version of Acrobat Reader.
You can check the version by clicking Help then About from within
reader. If you have a version earlier than 5.0 or 6.0, you should
update your reader.
2. If you have a Mac, you may be opening it with a Mac program
called "Preview" and not even know it. Preview has documented problems
opening modern Adobe files. If you have a Mac, try opening Adobe
Reader first (rather than just clicking on the file), then open the
file within Adobe Reader. You may also choose to set the default
reader to Adobe Reader by following the instructions here.
To change the default reader on a Mac to Adobe:
----------------------------------------------
Click on the icon of a PDF file type then choose File --> Get Info
You will see a dialog box labeled something like this "sample.pdf" Info
Near the bottom, you will see a section titled "Open With:"
That indicates what application on you Mac is the default.
Click on the pop-up to bring up the list of possible applications
and select Adobe Reader (whatever version is installed), then click
"Change All" to make it the default application for all .pdf files.
The OS will then ask you if you are sure, click "Continue."
Now the Mac will use Reader instead of Preview.
Please e-mail me at crazyforfirstgrade@hotmail.com or contact TpT customer service through the contact us link if you still have problems with the document!! I really appreciate your purchase and want to make sure you can get the problem fixed!!
I just purchased this but their is no download to open it to print it. Any suggestions? I read about adobe and do have an updated version. Please advise.
Hey there! Thanks so much for your purchase! If you don't see the download option under the "my purchases" tab, I would contact TpT to look into possible dashboard issues! Let me know if you need me after you get in touch with them!!! Thanks again:) Anna

Hello Anna It's me again. After getting my bulletin boards up, I decided that I would also like a label titled GROUPS as well. I like the rainbow colors with the word written in green just like the other ones. Please let me know if I owe you anything. Looking forward to using these to post my new essential questions. Thanks so much. Wendy Sheridan
No problem! I will get those to you this weekend:)

Hey Anna,
I recently purchased the 2nd Grade Common Core I Can statements from Rachel Lamb but she does not have any essential questions. Would you be willing to make your essential question posters smaller so they would match my I Can statements? As in making them two to a page?
Thanks~ Keris
I have been teaching for 5 years- 2 in 2nd grade and 3 in 1st grade. I'm currently teaching first grade and LOVE it!! I have the best job in the world:)
