This is an assessment that covers most of the common core standards that can be assessed using performance based tasks. I have also added patterning and colors because I feel they are very important skills for Kindergarten.

These cards go along with the Reading Strategy header document that I have for free. I have also included Kindergarten common core standards on the strategies that correspond. If you would like these but do not teach kindergarten, email me and I will be happy to add your grade level standards to them. You can find my email address under my profile.

These are the same setup as my Kindergarten reading strategy cards but are aligned to the 3rd grade common core standards. The Reading Strategy Headers are a free download. If you like my product, please rate it. Please feel free to contact me with any questions bbsutton48@gmail.com

This is a game that students use clothespins to match uppercase with the correct lowercase letter. I print them on card stock and laminate them. You can put these in a station, if you do stations or you can put them in your word work area for Daily 5.

This activity includes cards that can be used in Kagan structures: Numbered Heads Together, Quiz Quiz Trade, and Fan-n-Pick; one student worksheet; lesson plan. I designed this activity as lesson one for this standard. It correlates with the common core standard K.OA.5.

Teacher Prep: Students need two dice and counters. Print out mats and laminate. Directions: Students pick the mats according to what game they will play (one more or one less). Player one tosses the dice and adds them up. The will then decide what number is one more or one less and put a counter on that number. Players take turns tossing dice and placing counters on game boards. The player that has four counters in a row is the winner.

Jungle roll helps students master the common core standard K.CC.2, which is counting on. Students roll a die and write the number on the die. They then write the 3 numbers that follow.

These are the same setup as my Kindergarten reading strategy cards but are aligned to the 1st grade common core standards. The Reading Strategy Headers are a free download.

This game helps students master the common core math standards K.CC.6 and K.CC.7, which are identifing numbers that are greater, less than, or equal to and comparing numbers in written form.

This math game helps students master the common core standard K.CC.3, which is writing numbers 0-20.

The idea of this game is from the Sister's site. I adapted it to fit into this common core standard. Partners take turns rolling two dice and adding the numbers. The person rolling then places a marker on the game board's number that corresponds to the sum. If a number is rolled and the corresponding space has one of each players pieces on it, the player who rolled can "bump" their opponent off and take control of the space. Once a player has control, they cannot be bumped.

Materials: number mat for each player or pairs, two cow counters or other counters for each player. Directions: 1.The first player drops two counters onto the number mat. 2.The player tells their partner the two numbers and then has to tell a subtraction or addition number story. (I would only choose one) 3.The player then illustrates their number story and writes the equation to match. (Students need to understand the greatest number goes first.) I have also included cow counters if

This is a math game that helps students master the common core standard K.CC.1, which is counting by ones and tens.

This game helps students master the common core math standard K.CC.5, which is count and tell ,"how many?". If you like this game check out my others at a low cost.
