Sight Word Assessment

It's the end of the term for me next week.  It's fast approaching and I realized I need to do my sight word assessment very soon.  So, of course I thought I'd share that assessment with all of you!  Because I teacher first grade, I assess all students on the first grade list at the beginning of the year.  Then, students who know all first 100 words are assessed on the second 100.  After that, I no longer assess on sight words.  The hope is that students are able to do the first 100 by the end of the second term, but I do have a few who I still need to assess at the end of the third term coming up.

Here are your FREEBIES


If you want an assessment for all 1000 words, you can get it here.

Common Core Access App

Kristin over at Little Miss Glamour Goes to Kindergarten recently posted about this great app from Mastery Connect.  It's a simple way to access the core all in one place.  There are also some other amazing features of being part of the community including sharing of common formative assessments.  With the paid subscription, you can also have students take tests through ipad or ipods or have them take it with a bubble sheet and simply show a web camera the tests and they are instantly scored!  Go check it all out and get your own app here.   (I don't have it up just yet on my site because they didn't have my school listed in their sign up form, so I have to wait for them to add it. It will be added as soon as possible.)

UCET and Jackie Robinson

I've been busy attending the UCET (Utah Coalition for Educational Technology) Conference this weekend and haven't posted for a few days.  Don't worry, I'll post some of the tidbits I learned while I was away over the next few weeks.

I wanted to share with you what I did (well what I planned and the substitute did) with my class and other students on Friday to celebrate Read Across America Day.  In the morning the entire school was cross grade grouped (K-6) into groups of about 17 students.  Students were given "passports" and they toured the U.S. "Reading Across America."  Every adult in the building represented a state and shared a book and an activity that somehow related to the state.  Students rotated 5 times, to visit 5 different states.  Each rotation lasted 20 minutes.  It's a little crazy, but a lot of fun.  I chose to represent Georgia.  I lived there for 2 years.  I discovered that Jackie Robinson was born in Georgia, so I focused on baseball.  I introduced a few facts about the state and then introduced Jackie.  Then read this great book Teammates   to the students and discussed it.  Then, each student created their own baseball card using this fun template.  Students drew a picture of themselves on the front and then wrote their "stats" on the back such as name, age, grade and hobbies.  I don't have pictures since I wasn't there, but I think it went well.

Remember the giveaway that I currently have going on.
