Elan Publishing Company Class Record Book for 9-10 Weeks. 50 Names R1010 (Maroon)

Since my school district has very unreliable software for keeping digital grades, I decided to put time back in my hands by going old school and purchasing this lovely gradebook. The burgundy color is professional and looks nice on my desk during the day or to carry to parent conferences and IEP meetings. The cover is also tough, and the gradebook is slim enough to carry around to students' desks when checking journals or keeping track of participation in class activities. The inside of the gradebook is green with enough space to keep 10 weeks worth of grades for 40 weeks. There is also space to keep running averages. I only have to enter students' names once, as there is a perforated edge. Just make sure you leave enough pages behind each class so you have enough for each class for each grading period. I really like the section at the front of the gradebook for data on the run, and there's a section for seating charts. Each page has room for 50 students. I like to use a fine tip pen, and this works well. I imagine if someone wrote larger than I, then the size of the boxes could be a issue, but the boxes are large enough for a mechanical pencil, well sharpened pencil, or fine tip pen. This gradebook has really simplified things and is well worth the price. I highly recommend.

I had wanted to replace my class record book I used for attendance. I found this record book to be sturdy and just what I needed. I am very happy with it.

I've always had grade books provided by my school. No more, so I need to buy my own from here on out. I'm really happy with this one. Holds up to fifty names, which unfortunately is becoming more and more necessary, with rising class sizes. Boxes large enough to place grades in boxes, and the open column for each week is often needed. Will probably continue with this one for the rest of my career.

My school forgot to order me a class grade book, so I quickly ordered this one from Amazon. I paid extra for one-day service and it was here within 20 hours. I love that it can be used for either a 9 or 10 week grading period, and I love that it can have 50 students on a page (although I only write on every other line to make it easier to keep track) so it accommodates my class of 23 students. I would have given it a 5-star rating if the boxes weren't so small. I assume that they wanted to keep the size down, but I would have preferred the option of a slightly larger book for larger boxes in which to put grades. All in all, I am happy with my purchase.

I needed a new grade book for this semester and ordered the Elan class record book. The book is great -- easy to use, plenty of room, and the layout is really good for use in semester-long classes. The company sent the book quickly, it was well-packaged and I purchased it at a great price -- what more can you ask for? I will buy my next book here again and will most likely order the same edition (hope they keep offering it for a long time). It really is a good buy and a great book!

After reading the reviews and looking at the pictures, I couldn't decide between the King Record and R1010 9 or 10 week record book, so I purchased both. I liked the look of R1010 better, but without the dimensions listed and all the talk of tiny squares I wasn't sure. Now that they've arrived, I still prefer the look of the R1010. The item looks exactly as pictured. The R1010 has a single wrap-around cover, so there's no chance for it to separate. The boxes are 3/16" x 3/16". That 1/16 is significant. The assignment boxes are 13/16 x 3/16. The Students boxes are a little over 1.5 x 3/16. The Month/Dates section has individual boxes 2/16 x 3/16. There are perforations on the Students column. If you use letter grades or any other single-digit grade/ coding system and you don't have any fine motor skill issues this one could work for you. It you write big, this probably isn't the book for you. It might work if you use 2 boxes per student and write sideways, but you'd really be better off with the King Record. I'll have to see how they hold up, but as of right now I think, at a minimum, I've found my preferred record book company.

Perfect for attendance for 180 days, 4 quarters. Efficient design and layout. Back section for notes.

Has lots of room to write student names. Name section is perforated so that you can tear it off for the next marking period if you have the same students and do not need to rewrite names. Covers are sturdy. One downside is the assignment space seems small, but I may just write big! I will edit this review to see how it holds up for a semester.
