Students in Mrs. Hallowell's kindergarten class at Wiscasset Elementary School had a recent celebration to recognize that all the children had earned their measurement and data brag tags. Children in kindergarten work to earn brag tags in both math and reading. In order to earn a brag tag, the child must first perform a skill at a basic level, then demonstrate greater understanding at a more difficult level, and finally, show competence at the expected level of achievement. These levels are dictated by the Common Core State Standards. All of the children are highly motivated to earn brag tags and show how they have met the kindergarten Common Core Standards.
