These updated “I Can” poster use the original & apparently very popular clip art from our first set of posters! We had no idea how many requests we would get for our new posters to look similar to the first set we created two years ago. Don’t worry – the updated posters in this format are on their way for other grade levels too!
Kid Clip Art I Can Checkboxes for Fourth Grade
We have heard from many of you that you like to put these in your students’ folders. Children can then check off when they have mastered a standard. Do any of you have other ways you like to use these? We would love for you to share below!
Will you ever create I Can statements and standards for grades 7 & 8?
Hi Cindi! We have a colleague who teaches upper grades and is willing to write I Cans for 7th and 8th grade. Our experience is in elementary, so we don’t really feel qualified. She is getting ready to have a baby, so we aren’t sure when she will have them completed, but they are on the way. We will have 7th and 8th grade CCSS checklists out by this weekend. I Can checklists will follow whenever she gets the I Can statements to us. THANKS!
I love the polka dots standards. Do you have them for third, fourth and fifth?
Hi Maria! They are coming!! Hopefully all will be posted in the next few weeks!
Hi,
This are a great resource! Do they happen to come in Spanish?
Thanks!
Hi Blanca! We have someone working on 4th grade! Hope to have them available soon!
I love your site and just recently moved from gen. ed to visual art. Any I can statements for elementary art? My kids love to check off their accomplishments. Thanks!
Hi Shelley! No plans right now, but never say never! We will take a look and see if it’s something we can do this next year. As we are gen ed teachers we don’t currently do much with the arts, but thanks for the idea!
I use them to start every lesson in all subject areas where it is applicable. Students keep their standards in a binder, one for reading and one for math. At the start of the lesson we take them out and choral read the 1-2 that hit our learning target for the day. I then ask, so what does that mean our objective is for the day? At the end of the lesson we choral read them again and decide if we hit our learning target. This has been more effective than just posting them in the room and not every student can see them.
I have tried to make these charts myself. It has taken me forever and I am not even close to what you have accomplished. Thank you so much. My last REACH evaluation reported that my lesson did not match my objective. I think I have it now. You guys are in my prayers. Please keep up the much needed work. I think I have been working 72 hour weeks and my family is a little bit annoyed. Oh well, thanks for listening.
Hang in there, Priscilla! Our families certainly know that feeling too, which is why we are doing this right now. Hope our resources make things a little easier for all of our colleagues in education. 🙂
I love your resources. I depend on your site all the time! Thanks for all the hard work
Thank you SO much! These are absolutely fantastic!!
I am excited about using your “I can…” statements. They look like something the students and I could really benefit from during the year. I am wondering why the RL.4.2 and the L.4.1.C standards have a third grade standard written with them. Please help.
Thank you so much
Hi Debbie! We double checked the I Can statements next to RL.4.2 and L.4.1.C and find that they match/mirror those found at http://www.corestandards.org for fourth grade reading and language standards on the Kid Clip Art I Can Statements Checkboxes.
thought about giving them to parents
