I'm thinking of sending home a little check-list for parents to show them some of the things I look for when making sure the kiddos are ready for 2nd grade. Now by no means would I use this list solely for retention purposes but I'd like to give the parents a bit of an idea of how prepared the kiddos should be when they walk into 2nd grade on the first day.
Here's a preview:
I'm really looking for input so please feel free to tell me if I'm missing a big skill (I know I am!) or if some of these you don't feel are really necessary for 2nd grade. Oh, and of course typos.
I'd also like to make a reading check-list. Suggestions?
Have you made the reading checklist yet? I'm very interested in getting my hands on that!
ReplyDeleteLove this. I'm sending it to parents with progress reports. I would love to see a reading list as well. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this! I am going to give it to my parents at the EOY conference! Do you have one for ELAR? I would love to have it, if you do! :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to get a copy of this. this is a great tool.
ReplyDeleteI teach summer school for kids entering second grade in the fall. I would love to have this and a reading list. Have you updated or changed anything? Could I get an updated list? zinkee@fonddulac.k12.wi.us
