Teacher friends! Do you use ESGI assessment tests?? Have you maybe thought about using them, but weren't sure??? Well, NOW is the time to give it a try!!!!
Maybe you’re wondering what ESGI is exactly?
“ESGI is the simplest, easiest to use assessment platform for conducting one-on-one assessments for emergent and non-readers. CLICK. CLICK. DONE.”
Seriously!! I LOVE ESGI and I absolutely encourage you to check it out! I honestly don’t know how I taught without it! LOL! Have I convinced you yet? Their features include:

Why use ESGI?
I've mentioned ESGI on my blog before because I truly do LOVE it!! But here are a few basic points:
- It saves you over 400 hours a year!
- It guides instruction by providing you with real-time student data.
- It automatically generates parent letters and customizable flash cards.
- It grants you free access to thousands of customizable assessments or you can instantly create your own!
The best thing about ESGI– no wasted minutes! And it also allows you to give parents IMMEDIATE feedback in the form of a set of personalized flash cards and individualized, personalized letters that explain their child’s test results.
I used to just keep a laptop on the table next to me as I conferenced with the parents of my kindergarten students. If there was any question at all where the child was at with the numbers, letters, or sight words, etc., I simply opened up ESGI and let the child tell us what he knew! Then I pressed “print” and gave the parents an instant set of flash cards. Easy peasy! It really made me wonder why EVERYONE didn’t do this. In fact, even the parents were asking me WHY the all of the other teachers weren’t using ESGI! Then they went around showing the other parents how they got an instant set of personalized flashcards and test results on the spot! So there’s another benefit; ESGI can make you a very popular teacher. :)
