It could also be used for advanced 2nd graders or as a review at the beginning of the year for 4th graders.

Iowa Core 3rd grade math standards checklist
Nothing fancy here, just tedious:) I copied and pasted all of the grade 3 math standards from the Iowa Core into a checklist. Just print it out and write your students names at the top. I also write their initials on subsequent pages. You can do a scale 1-3 based on mastery or just an check mark. It is set up for 24 students but you can make the boxes smaller to make room for more, or you can make the boxes bigger if you would like to add notes. (I can help with that if you need me)
