Looking for some assessment resources? I’ve been hunting all over the internet and I’ve found some great ones! I can’t wait to share them with you because I know they will help you figure out what you need to teach your children. And if I’ve learned anything as a mom it’s that you have to have a plan when it comes to kids!
I have a plan to help me survive summer. I will have three kids – three boys; three mobile, adventurous, curious and energetic boys – under my supervision for eight solid weeks. That’s 1,344 hours. I can hope they will be asleep for half of those, but I won’t hold my breath for that. Like the Boy Scouts say, be prepared.
In trying to put things together for this summer, I realized that I don’t have as comprehensive a grasp on what my kids can do as I once did. I needed to do some assessments so I could plan things that are appropriate for my kids. Spring Break was my window and I took it.
I used resources dealing with k-2nd grade and preschool. There were lots. But these are the best ones I found. And they are free. You gotta love free!

We are homeschooling the younger three of our five children and this is exactly what I have been looking for, so thank you! Since I don’t use a boxed curriculum but, rather, have designed my own, and since we try to work on the areas that come easily first and take the harder stuff very slowly, our 5 year old and 2.5 year old both seem to fit outside of the box in terms of what “grade” they’re in. I’d like to know exactly what gaps we need to fill so we can determine our starting point for next year since I would like to switch to a boxed curriculum at that time. I’ve been looking and…do you know how hard it is to find assessments beyond Kindergarten readiness checklists?! Anyway, thank you. 🙂
You are very welcome! I am so glad they were helpful! I spent a lot of time looking for them so I know what you mean when you say it’s hard to find good assessments. They were super helpful when I was trying to determine where my boys were and what we should focus on. Good luck and enjoy all that learning! =) Thanks for stopping by!
