11. Empowering Educators with Effective Student Progress Tracking
Manage episode 386702354 series 3505733
Hey teacher friends, today we are talking about tracking student progress. This is a question that comes up a lot for teachers about the best ways to track student progress and I've got a lot of tips and tricks in here for you. I want to emphasize the need to assess students based on the skills they need to learn in kindergarten and ascertain their skill development. Starting with basic skills like letter identification and number counting, we gradually add more assessments as students progress. Routine check-ins and assessments are essential, allowing us to inform instruction and determine if whole-class or small-group interventions are necessary.
In this episode I share:
- Assessing students: tracking progress and staying organized
- The importance of routine check-ins and assessments
- Prioritizing foundational skills: phonological awareness vs. writing and reading
- Collaborating with parents and school for student support
- Exploring additional support options: literacy specialist and special education evaluation
