Kindergarten Teacher Survey (Child Level)
Fall 2023 - Form TQCFK
INTRODUCTION
Dear Teacher,
Your school has agreed to participate in the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study,
Kindergarten Class of 2023-24 (ECLS-K:2024), a nationwide study of elementary-aged
children and their schools, teachers, and parents. As part of the study, we are asking
teachers at your school to complete surveys. You have been asked to complete this survey
because one or more of the children in your class(es) are participants in this study. The
child who is the subject of this survey is identified on the cover. This survey contains
questions about this child’s skills and abilities.
The ECLS-K:2024 collects information from teachers of children who are in the study to
investigate the relationship between children’s academic progress and various school,
classroom, teacher, and home characteristics.
Taking part in the study is voluntary. You may stop at any time or choose not to answer a
question you do not want to answer. However, only you can provide this information.
Although we realize you are very busy, we urge you to complete this survey as completely
and accurately as possible.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP.

ACADEMIC RATING SCALE
Please rate this child's current skills, knowledge, and behaviors within language and literacy (section 1), science
(section 2), and mathematical thinking (section 3), based on your experience with him or her. If you are not the
primary teacher in any of these areas, you may want to consult with the person most familiar with the child’s
progress in the area when completing the scales.
This is NOT a test and should NOT be administered directly to the child.
Each skill, knowledge, or behavior is listed in bold, and there are often examples to help illustrate what is
intended. These examples do not exhaust all the ways the child may demonstrate what he or she
knows or can do. Use the examples as a guide to the level of proficiency a child should have reached in
order to receive the highest rating.
For each question, please rate this child compared to other children of the same age level using the
following five-point scale that reflects the degree to which a child has acquired and demonstrated the
identified skills, knowledge, and behaviors.
Not yet
=
Child has not yet demonstrated skill, knowledge, or behavior.
Beginning
=
Child is just beginning to demonstrate skill, knowledge, or behavior but
does so very inconsistently.
In progress
=
Child demonstrates skill, knowledge, or behavior with some regularity
but varies in level of competence.
Intermediate
=
Child demonstrates skill, knowledge, or behavior with increasing
regularity and average competence but is not completely proficient.
Proficient
=
Child demonstrates skill, knowledge, or behavior competently and
consistently.
Not applicable or
Skill not yet taught
=
Skill, knowledge, or behavior has not been introduced in classroom
setting.
If this child has limited English proficiency or is an English language learner, answer with his or her
native language in mind if he or she does not yet demonstrate skills in English but does demonstrate them in
his or her native language.
If this child has a disability, it may be necessary to consider adaptations for some questions to make them
more inclusive for this child's skills and/or use of adaptive equipment. Some children may utilize alternative
forms of verbal communication (for example, sign language, communication boards) or written
communication (for example, word processors, Braille, dictation). Please answer the questions with these
adaptations in mind.

SECTION 1: LANGUAGE AND LITERACY
A1.
First, please rate this child's current skills, knowledge, and behaviors in LANGUAGE AND LITERACY.
MARK ONE RESPONSE ON EACH ROW.
THIS CHILD...
a. Contributes relevant information to
classroom discussions – for example, during
a class discussion, can express an idea or a
personal opinion on a topic and the reasons
behind the opinion.
Not yet
b. Engages in higher-level thinking and
reasoning during classroom discussions – for
example, answers questions that are not just an
explicit recall of facts, makes inferences, asks
on-topic questions, and can have a cohesive
exchange of ideas that are centered on a given
topic for at least three conversational turns.
c. Uses correct endings on verbs and nouns
when speaking – for example, says "dog plays"
and "dogs play" or uses present tense ("she runs"
or "she is running") and past tense correctly for
both regular and irregular verbs ("he walks" and
"he walked"; "I run" and "I ran").
d. Uses morphemes to figure out the meanings
of words – for example, knows that “–s” means
“more than 1” as in “trucks”; “–er” means a
“person who” as in “farmer” and “painter”; “un”
means “not” as in “unlike” and “unfriendly”; or
“re” means “again” as in “reread” and “replay.”
e. Uses morphemes to decode new words – for
example, decodes “jellyfish” by recognizing it is
made up of two familiar words “jelly” and “fish”
or decodes “preheat” as “pre” and “heat” and
“fearless” as “fear” and “less.”
f. Uses complex sentence structures – for
example, says "If she had brought her umbrella,
she wouldn't have gotten wet," or "Yesterday it
was raining cats and dogs," or "Why can't we
go on the field trip at the same time as the first
grade?"
g. Understands and interprets a story or other
text read to him/her – for example, by retelling a
story just read to the group, or telling about why
a story ended as it did, or connecting part of the
story to his/her own life.

THIS CHILD...
h. Easily and quickly names all upper- and
lower-case letters of the alphabet.
Not yet
i. Predicts what will happen next in stories
by using the pictures and storyline for clues.
j. Reads simple books independently – for
example, reads books with a repetitive
language pattern.
k. Demonstrates early writing behaviors – for
example, by using initial consonants to spell
words ("d" for the word "dog"), or using letter
names to represent sounds ("r" for the word
"are"), or phonetic spelling ("hrt") for the word
"heart," to convey words or ideas.
l. Composes simple stories – for example, by
writing about a personal experience in a
journal.
m. Composes informative/explanatory text – for
example, uses a combination of drawing,
dictating, and writing to state what is being
written about, supply some information about
the topic, and provide some sense of closure.
n. Demonstrates an understanding of some
of the conventions of print – for example, by
using both upper- and lower-case letters when
writing, or putting spaces between words, or
using a period at the end of a sentence.
o. Finds meaningful units in words such as
prefixes, suffixes, and base words.

B1.
Next, please rate this child's current skills, knowledge, and behaviors in SCIENCE.
MARK ONE RESPONSE ON EACH ROW.
THIS CHILD...
Not yet
a. Uses his/her senses to explore and observe –
for example, observes and notes the habits of
classroom pets, or describes the differences in
clay before and after water is added.
b. Forms explanations based on observations
and explorations – for example, describes or
draws the conditions (water, soil, sun) that help
a plant grow, or explains that a block will slide
more quickly down a steeper slope.
c. Classifies and compares living and non-living
things in different ways – for example,
classifies objects according to "things that are
alive and not alive," or "things that fly and
things that crawl."
d. Directly compares two objects with a
measurable attribute in common to see
which object has “more of”/”less of” the
attribute and describes the difference – for
example, directly compares the heights of two
children and describes one child as
taller/shorter.
e. Makes logical predictions when pursuing
scientific investigations – for example,
observes and identifies patterns in nature and
predicts what happens next (for example,
predicts if a new object will float or sink).
f. Communicates scientific information – for
example, records or describes the properties
of common objects verbally or through
drawings or graphs.
g. Shows curiosity about the world by asking
how and why things happen – for example,
asks how rocks are formed or why it is warmer
in the daytime than at night.

C1.
Now, please rate this child's current skills, knowledge, and behaviors in MATHEMATICAL THINKING.
MARK ONE RESPONSE ON EACH ROW.
THIS CHILD...
a. Counts forward beginning from a given
number within the known sequence,
instead of having to begin at 1 – for
example, child starts with 5 objects and is
given 2 more and child counts “6, 7” instead
of “1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7” to get the answer of 7.
Not yet
b. Orders a group of objects – for example,
by ordering rods or sticks by length, or
arranging paints from lightest to darkest or
musical instruments from softest to loudest.
c. Shows an understanding of the
relationship between quantities – for
example, knows that a group of ten small
stones is the same quantity as a group of
ten larger blocks.
d. Demonstrates consistent understanding of
one-to-one correspondence – for example,
when counting objects, says the number names
in the standard order, pairing each object with
one and only one number name and each
number name with one and only one object.
e. For any number from 1 to 9, finds the
number that makes 10 when added to the
given number (for example, by using objects
or drawings) and records the answer with a
drawing or equation (for example, 3 + _ = 10
and 4 + _ = 10).
f. Uses place value to compose and
decompose numbers from 11 to 19 into
tens and ones (for example, by using objects
or drawings) and records each composition
or decomposition by a drawing or
equation (for example, 18 = 10 + 8).
g. Solves problems involving numbers using
concrete objects – for example, "Vera has six
blocks, George has three, how many blocks
are there in all?" or “How many do I need to
give George so he will have the same
number of blocks as Vera?"
