Kindergarten Readiness Checklist Printable
This kindergarten readiness checklist is for parents, caregivers, and early years teachers who want a simple way to review school readiness. It includes fields for Child and Date, then four sections: self-care and independence, social and emotional, language and listening, and early literacy. Each section uses a Skill list with Yes, Emerging, and Not yet columns. Sample rows include using the toilet independently and washing hands, putting on a coat and shoes, separating from a parent, following two-step directions, speaking in full sentences, listening to a short story, and recognising some letters, especially in a child's name.
