Created specifically for the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS), this checklist is a teacher-designed tool to make tracking math progress simple and stress-free. I couldn’t find a system that truly worked for me, so I made my own—covering all math TEKS in clear, easy-to-read language that stays true to the standards.

It’s perfect for keeping at your small group table as a quick-reference guide for the skills your students need most. Print it for a hands-on tracking system (my personal favorite—hello, pencil and highlighter!) or use it digitally if that’s more your style. I like to slash the box the first time we cover a skill (/), turn it into an X the second time, and fill it in completely on the third round.

Whether you’re a paper-and-pencil fan or a digital tracker, this checklist helps you stay organized, focused, and ready to give your students exactly what they need to grow—all year long.
