Materials Monday - Data Sheets

I apologize that I have been slow in updating. Summer is racing by, and I feel like I have so much left to do. It's already mid-July! Where has the time gone?

For today's Materials Monday post, I am sharing some forms that I used in my internships that helped me keep data on students. They are pretty simple, but they always worked well for me.

Just a quick note: I might be changing how I keep data when I begin working with my preschoolers. These data sheets that I am sharing are great for K-5 students (and older, I am sure). Since I don't have too much experience working with preschoolers, I don't know the best way to keep data. If I change my system, I'll update in the future. :)

I usually keep one data sheet for articulation and one data sheet for language (and voice, fluency, etc). Whenever I do an activity that involves percentages, I use the articulation data sheet. Whenever I do an activity that requires more writing than percentages, I use the language data sheet. I will keep separate sheets even for one student depending on his/her goals.

I also decided to upload the speech therapy schedule form that I use. It's really simple and probably nothing you haven't seen before. I just like to use a paper copy and write/erase all over it while I'm figuring out my schedule before transferring it onto the computer and making it look all fancy and highlighted (of course, I'm an SLP, it MUST be highlighted).


*One more final note: Just so you all know, I will NEVER charge you for any activities I post here. I received an email asking if I ever plan on charging for my materials/activities/ideas, and it is my personal belief that the sharing of ideas and activities cultivates rich learning experiences for students (hence why I created this blog in the first place), so I will never charge money for any activities I blog about. I do currently have a TPT store, but I do not plan on using it to charge money for my activities. Everything that I will post (because I haven't posted anything yet) on my TPT store is (and always will be) free. If there is something you would like me to post, or if there is an idea you have that you would like me to create and share with others, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me.


Stay tuned because I have a few exciting posts coming up this and next week!

  1. Just wanted to say thanks for what you said about free materials. Not all of us are lucky enough to have boardmaker, and I so appreciate other SLPs sharing their materials. I know that everyone could use a little extra money, but charging just because it's an option on TPT really bugs me!
