Data Collection (freebie)

The countdown to back to school is on!  Although I am not permitted into my classroom yet (ugh!), I've been puttering at home to get things ready.  Today I was getting some paperwork organized to get ready for all the data I will be collecting.

When thinking about number sense I strongly believe that skip counting is an important skill and keep track of my student's progress on this form which you can download for free HERE.  We count in a variety of ways daily and it really helps them with addition and in later years multiplication.

I keep it in the math section of my data binder.  You can read more about that HERE.

I just might like collecting data this year!

The expectations for collecting and using data increases every year in my district.  I am very good at keeping running records, writing rubrics, etc in student binders, but last year I also kept a 'teacher copy' - a go-to binder that listed current running record levels, behavior notes, etc.  But ... it wasn't pretty.  This year I'm keeping this one on my desk on a place for everyone to see!

I'm not loving my inkjet printer right now ... so while I dream about a new one I had these pages printed at Staples.  Seriously, I ordered it online and it was done before I got there!  I also included black & white pages not only as a save your ink option but wouldn't they be ADORABLE if they were colored in by your students???  Here's a peek:

I've posted this in my TPT store HERE as a zipped file.  It contains a PDF version and an EDITABLE Powerpoint (with instructions) for you to personalize your own.

I'm heading out to run some errands, but when I return I'll send a copy to 3 RANDOM people who leave a comment on this post.
