of any content in any grade.

When I taught pre-k and kindergarten, I found that I struggled with getting assessments done in an
efficient and timely manner. I really wanted a way that I could do a quick whole-class assessment of
basic skills (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, shapes, colors, etc.) instead of having to sit down with
each student and say...

"Can you write a big A?"
"Now can you write a big B?"
"Big C?"
"How about a big D?"
and on... and on... and on. F-o-r-e-v-e-r and ever and ever. (Literally 3 days out of each quarter)

... I wanted a way to do it quick. A way to assess them and be able to use it immediately, send home,
or bring out at conference time.

I came up with these 'assessment grids' a few years ago and love, love, love them. I remember
seeing something like this in college, but not sure where. Also, I don't remember coming across any
with symbols (could be out there, but I have no idea). They are perfect for the younger kiddos and
for giving whole-class assessments.

They are grids with symbols instead of numbers and letters (dont worry I included numbered ones too!)...
because sometimes those itty-bitties don't know their numbers and letters yet. Also, sometimes you
have kids who write in 8 inch font. The boxes keep them from getting too crazy.... those darn
'helicopter arm' kids.

4 assessment grids with symbols (for the little ones who dont know numbers yet)
o 4, 6, 12, and 30 boxes

4 assessment grids with numbers
o 4, 6, 12, and 30 boxes

2 sets of symbols to print, laminate, and use during administration

1. Decide what you want to assess. (see What can I use them for? page)
2. Make copies of the appropriate blank grid (4, 6, 12, 30)
3. Make a master copy (with answers/questions in each box)
4. The symbols are for use during the assessment. When you indicate a specific box (e.g.
the box with the flower) then you can hold up the flower symbol. Want to use the
symbols? Copy them on cardstock and laminate. There are 2 sizes to choose from.
5. Decide how youll assess. Whole-class? Small group? Individual? Distribute the grids to
students.
6. Administer your assessment. (see the example below)

Example:
This is an assessment I gave to my kinders. It was a whole-class assessment on forming letters.
I gave them the 30 block grid and began
1. Write a lowercase (a) in the box with the scissors.
2. In the box with the hand, write a lowercase (b).
3. and on and on until we got to z. Done!
4. I collected them and highlighted the boxes that the student needed to work on. I
actually kept these assessments in their files for conferences, but I sent others home, used
them to group, review in class, etc. Lots of uses.
Note: If you send these home, be sure to send the assessment purpose/questions as well
otherwise parents might not know what it is or how to work with their child

Now I know which letters A needs to work on and I can show her parents at conference time!
