Summer is going by so quickly and I was given the joyous responsibility to create an assessment for our incoming kindergarten students! Knowing that time is limited, but that we need data to sort students fairly, I've created an assessment to measure some of the basics for our students:
For READING:
* Uppercase Letters
* Lowercase Letters
* Letter Sounds
* Sight Words
* Writing Your Name
For MATH:
* Counting to 100 (no chart...just counting orally)
* Counting by Tens
* Identifying Numbers 0 - 20
* Counting Objects
* Writing Numbers to 25
* Addition
* Subtraction
I've included a data sheet as well, so wish me luck! This is our first time sorting students in advance with ACTUAL DATA! I'm excited!!
I've also slowwwwwly moving toward changes in my product covers! I'm pretty proud, but this took entirely too long to make...and then it was too big to upload to TPT! Ugh!
How many of you test kindergarten students in advance? What skills are a priority to you? Please feel free to leave comments below!
