Assessments

I'm back from my maternity leave- just in time for spring assessments!  I know I've blogged about ESGI before, but I wanted to share with you some new features that I've recently found- that made me wish I had known about them earlier!

So, in the fall and winter, I would test my kids and then if I had to stop to change subjects, help a student, or head to lunch, I had a hard time remembering where I had stopped and where I needed to keep going.  So, I would go through, student by student, and look at their last test date- time consuming?  YES!

But... do you see that little button down at the bottom of the screen?  VIEW UNTESTED STUDENTS - the answer to my prayers! :)


 When you click that button- you get a screen that looks like this:
Genius!  It shows if the student needs the test ran or if he/she has scored a 100%, they don't need to retake the test!  And with a simple click- it starts the test the student needs.  Now, no more shuffling through student tabs and looking at their last test date.  Sweet! :)  Thank you ESGI! :)

Now- head on over to try out your 60 free trial!  Click the image to be taken to ESGI!



Have you ever played the App "Scramble"?  I'm addicted- and it got me thinking and I've made a similar version for my kids to play (paper/pencil version, I'm no App creator)  :)  Stay tuned, my next blog will have some freebies including my Kinder friendly Scramble! :)

Happy Spring Break! Mine starts today- when does yours start?
