I have been using the above chart for the purpose of showing the students how much of the code they have learned; they color in boxes as they progress. But, because this is the UK version of the code, I have to make a number of modifications. Someday I would love to see a US/Canada version of this, with or without the key pictures. (The code chart that is available for US/Canada is all colored in and therefore not useful for this particular purpose.)

The format of the code chart below would also be an option for this purpose.

Hi Jennie,

You have really pricked my conscience as I do need to provide a variety of charts for US/Canadian users to give them the kind of scope of use you are describing.

Do you prefer your chart for tracking purposes to be the 'giant' sized - or would it be better slightly smaller to put into your students' clip folders for example?

One of my favourite charts is the one via the link above. This is very handy for students' use and is also still very readable when printed at half size - which means it can be printed as just two sheets.

I can produce it without the grey shading if preferred.

Please bear with me because I have had an exceedingly busy patch recently but will soon have more time to attend to producing alternative resources. Your request is now at the top of my list.

Thank you, also, for describing your use of one of the alphabetic code charts so others can see how beneficial the different versions are for different purposes.

All the best,

Debbie

Yes, Debbie, the chart you link to would be perfect for the purpose.

And, yes, a chart without the gray/grey shading would be lovely.

The smaller size for use in the students' folders is what I have in mind.

Thanks in advance!

Jennie

You're very welcome - but my actions will speak louder than my words! LOL!

I'll do my best asap!
