How to use these templates

Print one progress matrix per child at the start of a term and update it by hand as materials move from Presented to Working to Mastered. Keep the observation log on a clipboard and jot a line whenever you see something worth recording — you don't need a full sentence, just enough to remember the moment later. Use the daily care sheet as your end-of-day roster check before families arrive for pickup.

These templates cover the same three layers of record keeping described in the complete guide to Montessori record keeping. If your school outgrows paper — multiple classrooms, a leader who needs visibility without walking the halls, or families asking for updates between conferences — see how msphere keeps the same three layers digitally.
