Move between rug and tables with the class
When to use this goal
For kindergartners who stay on the rug or wander when the class moves from a whole-group lesson to table work and back. Present levels in following group directions and in finding an assigned seat decide fit.
- Baseline
- Score 8 moves across 2 days. Count correct when the student reached the assigned spot within about a minute without being led.
- Tips
- Kindergarten days have many rug-table moves; each is a learning chance. Keep spots the same for the first months. Share the routine with preschool staff in the spring so students can practice before kindergarten.
- Limits
- Does not measure what the student does at the spot. Classrooms without assigned spots need a different cue.
