Forms and Checklists Teaching Resources
From data tracking forms to classroom set-up checklists, explore a collection of essential printable and digital resources for teachers to stay on top of everything on your long list of tasks this school year!
Created by teachers, for teachers, each item in this collection has been designed with your classroom needs in mind.
That means you won't just find the forms you need to add to your sub planning binder. You'll also find checklists to help you stay on top of your mental health — after all, teacher burnout is all too real, and our teacher team believes in giving you the resources you need to help you find work/life balance.
The teachers of Teach Starter have drawn on their combined decades of classroom experience to create the forms and checklists that have helped them stay on track of everything in their own classrooms. Now we're sharing them with you to help you take back control!
Trying to plan and wondering which forms you should have on hand in your classroom? Read on for a guide from our teacher team!
Must-Have Forms Every Teacher Should Have on Hand
Teachers seem to be asked to fill out yet another form every time we turn around, don't we? There's the form for requisitions from the main office, the form for requesting a bus for your field trip, and don't forget all those employment forms the payroll office wants you to fill out.
So which forms do you — the teacher — actually need to have on hand in the classroom? Here's a list of some of the must-have forms to get you started:
- Parent-teacher conference form for scheduling conferences
- Student accident form
- Behavior documentation forms
- Parent volunteer forms
- Substitute teacher feedback forms
- Attendance checklist
- Permission slips for field trips and in-class activities
