I am sure that as a teacher, you keep data on your kiddos. I thought I would share how I keep mine all together. In the state of Oklahoma, we have moved to the TLE Evaluation System (Teacher and Leader Effectiveness). Our district chose to do Marzano, where it is a big deal to have the kiddos track their learning. Some teachers are choosing to do graphs on the wall, while others are having a folder for each child. I went a different direction. I have two binders. Without them I would be lost. My first binder is my assessment binder that I put in front of the students. I print off all 12 pages of Assessment Sheets. I then put each of the pages in page protectors in the binder in order of the way I am going to assess. I assess, Math, Phonics, Phonemic Awareness, so that is how I load the binder. As we are going through the assessment, I will flip to the corresponding page in the Student’s Binder. The second binder is MY binder. I lovingly refer to it as my Data Bible. I know there are a lot of people who don’t like data. But I love data. It is what drives my instruction. So, I keep A LOT of data on my kids. In my binder I have enough tabs, one for each of my students. In each tab I have an assessment check sheet for that student along with their “This is how I write my name in August” page. When I am ready to start assessing, I flip to a student’s section. To the right of where the name goes, there are boxes labeled date. You will use this assessment sheet all year long. So, on your initial assessment pick a color, and write the date in the first box. Then I go in ROY G BIV color order per month. So August is red, September is orange, October is yellow, etc. I assess four areas, Phonics, Phonemic Awareness, Math and Foundational Skills. These are all the skills that are included in my PreK Assessment ♥ Uppercase Letters ♥ Lowercase Letters ♥ Sounds ♥ Knows ABCs ♥ Reads Name ♥ Writes Name ♥ Distinguishes Letters from Words ♥ Reads Real CVC Words ♥ Reads Nonsense CVC Words ♥ Rhyme Recognition ♥ Rhyme Production ♥ Initial Sound ♥ Syllable Segmentation ♥ Syllable Blending ♥ Syllable Deletion ♥ Number Identification 0-9 and 0-20 ♥ One to One Correspondence to 10 and to 20 ♥ Shape Identification (Both 4 and 7 shapes, with both diamond and rhombus wording) ♥ Identifying and Extending Patterns ♥ Sorting and Classifying ♥ Color Identification

I’m a summer baby so when the air starts to chill, it gets me a bit down. But there’s always one thing that comes around this time of year that cheers me up right away: pumpkin!
