This is a form that I made to use at parent teacher conferences. The form allows you to record things you may want to discuss during the conference so that you are prepared and not shuffling through all your records for those important scores. There are spaces for Benchmark Assessments in Math, Reading, and Writing as well as Guided Reading Levels throughout the year. There is also a place to record 1st and 2nd quarter grades. Finally there is a place for signatures to help you with ke

This is a template that I use for planning my units that I am going to teach. It allows you to plan backwards and have evidences to show that your students are achieving the skills you are teaching them. The template is set up to plan your unit in 3 steps: Standards and Goals, then Assessments (both formative and summative), then planning a step-by-step (lesson-by-lesson) schedule for the unit.

This is a mat that students can use to count to 100. On the 100th day of school students can make a necklace with Cheerios or fruit loops, but first they should place the fruit loops on the ten-frame mat until they reach 100. Then they can remove them and string them onto a piece of twine or yarn to make a necklace. Once the necklace is complete they can wear it all day and count the fruit loops as they eat them. Counting to 100 3 times in one activity.

This is a book that I created to accurately assess the kindergarten skills within the common core standards. I provide at least 3 different ways to asses each standard. It is set up so that you can print 1 page per standard. On each page is 3-4 different ways to asses that standard. So you can print that 1 page 20 times (however many students you have) and have all the assessments you will need for that standard. At the end I list all the common core math standards and best practices.

This is a pop quiz I gave to my fifth grade class to assess whether or not they grasped the concept of stem and leaf plots. There is an answer key included. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.

Students record their observations after planting a lima bean in soil or in a plastic bag with a wet paper towel. Each day or weekly the students observe their bean and record their observations on the chart. Helps with making predictions and observing experiments.

This is the second in a series of learning numbers. They range from numbers 1-9, teen numbers, 20s, 30s & 40s, 50s & 60s, 70s & 80s, and 90 -100. I used these in a station. There is the number that they can trace, then they can illustrate the number on a ten frame, and finally they can trace the word. I put them in sheet protectors and had my students use a dry erase marker. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.

This is a type of spreadsheet to use to document student's progress throughout the year. It monitors the following skills - Capital Letter Recognition - Lower Case Letter Recognition - Number Recognition (0-30) - Shape Recognition ( 1D, 2D, & 3D shapes) - Counting to 100 by 1s & 10s - Sight Word Recognition ( Levels A - E: Fountas & Pinnell) - Color Words Recognition - Writing Numbers to 60 (In progression each quarter- 1st: 0- 10, 2nd: 0 - 20, 3rd: 0 - 30/40, 4th: 0-50/60) - Days of

This is a template that I created that shows part-part-whole. I added a slot on the bottom of the template for students to put the equation/number sentence.

This is an excel file that displays the Common Core Standards for Kindergarten Literacy. It gives you three times to assess then a progress report slot. Then it gives three more times then a report card slot. Makes filing out report cards so much easier.

This is the first in a series of lesson plans on the skills for Kindergarten. They are all common core aligned and provide several assessment choices as well as a checklist that you may use to track your students' achievement. If you have planning lessons than this is a great option. I have created lesson plans that are backward design and aligned with common core. This lesson is on Same (alike) and Different. Comparing objects by attributes. This work is licensed under a Creative Common

There is the number that they can trace, then they can illustrate the number on a ten frame, and finally they can trace the word. I put them in sheet protectors and had my students use a dry erase marker.

This is a sample behavior plan that you can adjust and make your own. My school used SWPBS (school wide positive behavior system). It is a contract that everyone (student, parent and teacher) has to sign and follow.
