The Core Skill Screener is used to assess K-2 students in 3 of the 6 core skills<\/a>. This screener opened Monday and remains open through October 30th. The assessment is only 3-4 priority standards, six questions for K-2 teachers, and aligned to our report cards. The custom formative Waypoints will appear in the K-2 teachers’ to-do lists on the dashboard when they log in. They will be labeled Kinder Beginning of Yea<\/strong>r, 1st Beginning of Year<\/strong>, etc. Instructions.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Special call out to Buckingham<\/strong> (92%), Pine Ridge<\/strong> (97%) and Silver Rail<\/strong> (90%) for all hitting 90%+!
Please remember to mark your core lessons COMPLETE after you teach them in Wayfinder. You can do this several ways: the home dashboard, the checkmark next to the Core Lesson title, the top of the lesson guide or the last slide of the slide deck. Here<\/a> are the directions on how to do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\nMovement Moment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
