Mastery Tracker Template

Added by Dean Bryson on October 30, 2018

I have used this mastery tracker for the past three years to keep me organized and enable data to push my instruction. This google sheet includes a sample sheet for a comprehensive mastery tracker for tracking standards unit by unit and a unit/benchmark tracker for tracking more specific objectives within a standard. There are templates included for both of these samples for you to adapt to your own courses. There is also a “Keep It Simple” template if you just want to track data that will give you an average.

I have used this mostly for physical science benchmarks in alignment with the Pro-Core test, but this can be a starting point to any type of mastery.

New Tech Collinwood

9th Grade

Dean Bryson is in his fifth year of teaching ninth grade physical science at New Tech Collinwood High School. He is a proud graduate of Bowling Green State University and Howard University. For the past two summers, Dean has served as a corps member advisor for Teach For America’s Houston Institute, supporting and coaching brand new teachers. He implements project-based learning (PBL) and teaches standards through authentic-learning tasks. While there is often tension between PBL and standards-based instruction, Dean has learned to effectively embed standards within his projects without sacrificing data-driven instruction. Outside of his classroom, Dean advises the social justice club and the “BG Bros,” a male mentoring group at Collinwood.
