The Badging Report

Usage window

Choose a week from the pre-populated drop-down menu on the left or select School Year to see data for the entire year.

Usage data

The number of stories read and the total reading minutes for each student in the selected week will be displayed, just like in the Tracking Report for the current week. You can also see a class total of the minutes and stories read for each week.

Awarding badges

When a badge is achieved, you’ll see the attainment on the Badging Report. Any badge that has already been awarded will have a check mark.

To award a badge or print the certificate, simply select the students and click on the badge/s you wish to award (or award all at the top) and then select the option at the bottom you wish to proceed with.

Award Badges: Students will see this badge on their progress view.

Print Certificates: Badges will be awarded and show on the student’s progress view; you can also print physical certificates for the students.

Build Certificates: Allows you to create your own certificates for students.To print (or reprint) certificates for badges already awarded click on the badges that you’d like to reprint and select Print Certificates at the bottom.

Creating certificates

When a group attains an achievement, you may want to create a custom certificate for your students. Select the students then select the Build a Certificate button at the bottom of the Badges Report. You can choose to print the certificates in color or black and white for a fun coloring project to give to your students.

The Certificate Builder

Approving badges

All badges must be approved by a classroom teacher.  If you don’t want to use badges in your classroom, you can simply act as though badges don’t exist.  If you don’t use the Badging Report, your students will never be aware of or even see badges.

The Badging Report allows you to see, award, create, and print certificates for badges. No certificate or badge ever exists without you as the teacher signaling the okay.

Student view

Students can see their badges on the progress screen and review their individual awards by hovering over the mascots.
