Report card surprises are the worst — for kids and parents both. The grade tracker fixes that by making grades visible all term long. When your child can see the average moving, 'I'm doing fine' turns into actual numbers, and small problems get caught while they're still small.
This sheet covers eight subjects with space for six graded items each, plus a running average column. Students can track their own (nothing motivates like watching your own average climb), or parents can use it for homeschool records. It also makes parent-teacher conferences about ten times more productive.
Print one per term per child. Keep it in the front of the school binder where it can't hide. And celebrate the upward trends — even small ones.

Add up the scores and divide by how many there are. A phone calculator does it in seconds.
Both. Students tracking their own grades tend to care more about them — ownership works.
Yes, it's a clean simple record. Keep the term sheets in a folder as your grade book.
Start a second row for the same subject, or print the sheet double-sided.
