Early Childhood
Teacher Portfolio for Tehama County Early Reading
First Grant
ClipBoard is a
comprehensive electronic teacher portfolio system
designed to guide the professional development of
early childhood educators. ClipBoard is a component
of two grants sponsored by the U.S. Department of
Education as a part of No Child Left Behind. The
Tehama County Schools Early Reading First grant,
Libros y más, and the Rural California Early
Childhood Education Professional Development
Program, CAL-NET, incorporate ClipBoard as a
professional teacher self-assessment tool. ClipBoard
allows teachers to collect artifacts that document
teaching competencies aligned with national and
state standards for early childhood educators.
Teachers submit artifacts that focus on Early
Reading First instructional skills in early literacy
and numeracy, as well as meet academic standards for
young children in all subject areas. Teachers design
showcases aligned with professional standards of
excellence. As teachers collect artifacts and design
showcases, they reflect on their teaching practice.
Showcases may be published for public exhibition and
shared with the professional community.
