Gradebook

Don't waste money on a store-bought gradebook when you can make your own cute gradebook that can be used year after year.

This one-inch binder was a dollar store find (of course).

My grade book is comprised of class lists and 8 tabs for keeping things in order.  I always have extra class lists up front and ready to go . . . these help for keeping track of grades, recording responses, organizing groups, etc. 

I have the following tabs in my gradebook to keep everything organized:

• READ = reading grades
• ELA = English language arts grades (spelling and writing)
• SCIENCE (2 sections) = science grades
• MATH = math grades
• C.C. = Common Core checklists
• SCHEDULES = district calendar, grading term dates, specialist schedule, etc.
• LISTS = class lists, school lists, peanut safe snack lists, etc.

What I love most about using a binder for grades?  I can add whatever I need!  I can include school paperwork, calendars, extra tabs, and anything else I find helpful.  It's customizable and cute.
