Scroll down for a list of common core labels in each grade!
Switching grades is hard! At least going from 2nd to 1st is like dumbing myself down…just kidding 🙂 Firsties leak a lot more than second graders…but I know I’m going to have a lot of fun! In preparation, the most important thing I feel I HAVE TO DO is to look over the standards to know what exactly I am teaching. Yes yes, we are all going to Common Core. Thankfully many of the standards are pretty similar between 1st and 2nd.
About a year ago, I discovered Ashley from That’s So Elementary‘s filing system. I absolutely loved having a place for all my things that aligned to each standard. Now, some standards I found you just aren’t going to have stuff to put in it {like a lot of the speaking and listening skills}, but it’s good to have just in case {TpT sellers are creating everything you can THINK of ;)}.
After finding out I was switching grades, the files were the first thing I wanted to attack! It helped me not only get to know the standards I will be teaching {because I have to read over/type up each standard to make a file}, but it also helped me feel prepared as a print/laminate/file all the different activities I’ve been creating/buying or already have.
Here are my new 1st grade labels.

I’ve done a little research for you…click the grade you want and it will take you to TpT, where you can download the perfect label/design for you, for FREE!

Happy organizing!

Common Core must be in the air…I spent today working on the 6th, 7th and 8th grade checklists I'll be using. I really like your idea of the folders for organization, especially with the labels. Thanks for sharing–and good luck with those firsties!

Thanks Beth! Yes, common core is pretty much nation wide now, except for a few lucky states 😉

Thank you for listing by grade level. You made my search so simple. I hadn't thought of all the different ways of doing the labels, but I was able to find just the right ones. Organization…Here I come!

The beginning of your post cracked me up!!! I am pretty sure my state is like the ONLY one who isn't on the common core train. But if we were, I would scoop these up!!!
Jen Cullen//Sparkling in Second says
Well Texas has it going on down there, so don't expect that common core anytime soon {and be happy about it too}!
Donna G says
This is amazing! Thank you for the wonderful idea and lables! Project time! Can’t wait to start sorting my files!
Erine says
Jen, did you ever make labels for 6th grade? I am moving f on 5th to 6th this year and need the common core labels. I loved the 5th grade ones.
Jen says
No I did not, I’m sorry! See if you can search for them on TpT 🙂
Emily says
Hi Jen,
I love the idea of the labels and filing! However, when I click on 3rd grade, I don’t see the labels on TPT. Could you help me out?
Thank you!
Jen says
I updated it, hope that helps!
Kelsey says
I can’t seem to get the 5th grade standard labels to pull up on TPT.
Jen says
Sometimes you have to search around on the TpT page for them, people will pull down their products, etc. Sorry! Try again, I relinked some!
