This tracker supports teachers to monitor progress monitoring data. The tracker aligns with each lesson, and uses data from the progress monitoring assessments from the back of the manual. The tracker is programmed to auto-color the responses based on the NEW CONCEPT POINTS from the progress monitor as a way to measure skill mastery over time. The tracker also includes the beta Fluency Checks.

Updated for the newest version of EL Skills block (2024),this progress monitoring tracker helps you track student success from the weekly small group assessments. Scores automatically color code based on performance, and assessments are linked right within the tracker!

These posters, which can be printed on 11x17, discuss the differences and similarities between sand, clay, humus, and loam. The addition and equal signs at the end of the document are placed in between so that the posters read "clay+sand+humus=loam"

Need to know where each phonics concept is introduced or reviewed in the Benchmark Advance curriculum? This scope and sequence will help you find each concept and the week/unit they are found! Perfect for differentiated instruction.

This was a unit I did with my 1st and 2nd graders. They LOVED it. Hands-on, interactive learning structures that allow students to explore the wonders of wiggly worms. Includes diagnostic and summative assessments.

I just love this beautiful homework packet cover!

This article discusses humus, clay, loam, and sand - and has matching questions for students to answer. I had students underline the evidence and text-code the article as they went through it.

This is a math warmup I do with my second graders. I have two seperate sheets that I've printed on two different colors and laminated, and I give each color group a number to work with for five minutes (writing with dry erase markers). For example, blue might be for my higher stduents who need a challenge, and orange might be for my students who need less of a push. Each group gets the number and completes the sheet. I have accessed some of the components of the Common Core standards for 2n

A notecatcher to accompany the video located here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8DYrzoApuw Students collect information from the video as they watch.

Students LOVE these adorable job chart labels! I print them out and glue them to posterboard, then laminate, to make a durable job chart!

This form is for students to self-assess their own behavior for each content area/work time. If you'd like to change the times, I'd be happy to email you the google doc!

Students use slips of paper - one with a definition, and one with a vocabulary word - to match up with a partner. Vocab words include: photosynthesis, chlorophyll, radicle, plumule, glucose, germination, etc.

I wanted to be as specific as possible when telling parents what kind of school supplies to get, so I went ahead and added some visuals!

here's some cute labels for all your math supply bins!

The age-old celery experiment. Use this before you do the experiment!

This is for primary students to help them keep track of their day. Print them out and paste them next to your schedule to keep primary students on track!

I cut these terms into strips and handed one to each child in my class. Half the students had terms, and half had definitions. They then had to find their partner! They loved this game.

Each year, I have my students fill out a job application for their desired classroom job (supply sorter, pencil sharpener, etc.).
