How to Use These Assessment Checklists

Use the checklists to record a child's current level of skill and note areas that need more practice. Mark each skill as Beginning, Developing, or Independent based on what the child can complete.

Keep completed forms in a classroom binder or portfolio and review them throughout the year. Teachers can also print individual pages when they want to focus on a specific skill area. Use the checklists as they are or adapt them to fit your classroom needs.
