Ontario Report Card Comments Generator Grades 7-8 | Bank + Learning Skills

This generator solves both problems. In Excel or Google Sheets, you choose the student, the subject and the level, and a complete comment writes itself with the student's name and pronouns. Each comment gives one strength, then one concrete next step, exactly what the Strengths/Next Steps for Improvement box asks for. Each strand has 5 strengths and 5 next steps per level, which makes 25 combinations. The file spreads them across your students and changes sentences from one report to the next: Progress Report, Report Card 1 and Report Card 2 in elementary, and every report in secondary. A Sentence Picker tab shows every sentence of a strand with the name filled in, so you can choose a number knowingly. Learning Skills use E, G, S and N ratings. Every sentence is complete and Canadian-spelled. The printable PDF bank holds every sentence, with step-by-step instructions for Excel and Google Sheets. This edition (Grades 7 and 8) holds 2,397 sentences for Language, French as a Second Language, Mathematics, Science and Technology, History, Geography, Health and Physical Education and The Arts, plus Learning Skills and special-situation sentences. In math, science and technology, history and geography and health and physical education, each grade now has its own strands, drawn from that grade's curriculum (for example: History, Grade 8 · Creating Canada, 1850-1890). Use it to: - write a whole class's Progress Report in one evening; - keep comments varied within one class without effort; - reuse the file on the next report card by changing a single setting; - browse ideas on paper with the printed bank; - stay under your board's character limit with the built-in check; - start from a solid comment and add a sentence of your own. The instructions are clear enough that there is nothing to learn before you start.
