Off to a Good Start

I always like to complete an individual math interview with each student just to see what sort of mathematician they really are. I usually have 3 students at my table at a time. This seems to be just the right amount so that I can can pay attention and make notes for each child. It is so valuable and tells me more than any group assessment could. I lay out base ten pieces, scratch paper and counting blocks for students. Without giving any guidance I let them choose what they would liked to use and make notes as they go about how they are solving problems. This particular assessment is designed for Fall of 3rd Grade. These are based on the Common Core Standards and what students should have mastered by the end of 2nd Grade. I hope that this resource is helpful to you.

NOTE: The preview shows just the first page. There are 3 pages total covering skip counting, time, addition and subtraction and problem solving.

3rd Grade Assessment Pack!!

These assessments are based on the research of Marie Clay. Too often students reach 3rd grade and do not have a solid literacy foundation. Students may not be able to identify all letters and their sounds, perhaps they are not clear on how letters impact one another when placed together in a word or even more common, are lacking in common sight word recognition. 

These assessments are designed so that the same sheet may be used for the same student all year long. With a location for each date of assessment and the student's score teachers are able to easily recognize areas of strength and weakness for students and identify areas of growth, as well. 

This pack includes:

-Letter recognition assessment
-Letter sounds assessment
-7 progressive sight word lists
-Letter team assessment (example: pOUt and cOUsin)
