2nd Grade Beginning of the Year CCSS Math Assessment

For the past five years I have been doing the same boring beginning of the year assessments... fill in a blank 100's chart, some patterning activities, fact fluency assessments...and really, I do not learn a whole lot about my students from these assessments. 

I thought now would be the perfect time to create a new assessment to go along with the new CCSS for math!

I took the I can statements (in previous post) and turned each statement into an assessment question. So my beginning of 2nd grade assessment has all 1st grade standards being assessed. This way I will know what they learned and maybe did not learn in first grade.

I also included a rubric similar to the Teacher Checklist (in previous post). This rubric is also organized with I can statements and has a 4, 3, 2, 1 grading scale. 

I like to use colors to help me quickly see where a student is, so I color:
blue for 4 (exceeding standard)
green for 3 (meeting standard)
yellow for 2 (approaching standard), and 
red for 1 (below standard).



So here it is!!!

I have it on SALE now for 50% off until Sept. 1st!  Get it now at the discounted price!

As always, comments + feedback are greatly appreciated!

Did you know that you earn TPT credits for giving feedback on TPT purchases??!  I just learned this today!!

  2. What a great idea!! Now, I want to figure out how I can do one for the beginning of first grade. I should use your beginning 2nd grade assessment and use it for my end of the year for first graders. Wow, that would be great. My mind is spinning. Thank you.
