Kindergarten Data Binder (2020_ENGLISH)

This data binder is based off of the TEKS (Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills) and created so that you can test the students multiple times throughout the year using different highlighting colors.

A great way to use this data binder is to staple the pages into a folder where you can also store the students other information...easy access for parent conferences, guided reading/math groups, RTI or ARD meetings.

The PDF includes the printable sheets for the teacher to track data as well as sheets that you can print and laminate for testing use. It also includes a simple cover sheet.

The document also has speech bubbles assigned to each testing area that notifies you of the matching testing pages.
