Chapter 6: The Subtraction Running Records.

  1. Watch video of Coco and Dr Nicki doing a subtraction running record
  2. Print running record from Dr. Nicki’s site and record Coco’s thinking
  3. Mark Coco using the adapted version of the subtraction running record

Here are some things that my teachers and I have done to tweak Dr. Nicki’s running record (I have edited it and shared it with her permission)

– added in the speed codes a-automatic, 5s- 5 secs, pth – prolonged thinking to be by themselves

– other codes are listed below but we only write them if it is obvious the child is doing it

– we added rubric scores at the bottom that are particular to the gradelevel to help with teachers’ report card grading – fluency grade is now a combination of the speed, accuracy, and flexibility score

– strategies listed at bottom – we circle the one that we deem is appropriate for the child to start working on

– back side added the words we are looking for like “next #”

– back side, added N, E (for emerging), and Y so that assessors could circle and we could just look at that to see where students need to begin working

– moved half facts down below the ones with the teen numbers

-at bottom added some higher mental math in case the child aced the running record we could see if he/she would apply to larger numbers

– broke the decomposition to make 10 into plus 9’s first and then plus 7 & 8’s

-at bottom added some higher mental math in case the child aced the running record we could see if he/she would apply to larger numbers

There are no comments for this chapter as we will be discussing your Running Records in the next Chapter…
