Are you looking for an easy way to collect and store data. As the new year starts one of my goals this year is to keep up on my data collections. It seems to be a never ending task for me. I need to collect data every session and also data for my IEP goals. This year I am going to use a group data sheet for each session. This seems to be a natural part of therapy. I use this data to drive therapy and I use it when I bill for Medicaid.
My biggest challenge is keeping up with the data for my IEP goals. My goals are written without all the prompts and scaffolding I typically use in therapy. I also want my students involved in their own data collection. Last year I decided to create lap books with graphs inside for my 4th and 5th graders. My students created a lap book and every two weeks we added a data point. It was be a good way to review their goals and talk about their progress. I gave out brad tags when my students beat their previous score. It was so successful with my older students that this year I am going to expand it to all my students.

I am excited to see how it goes. It is always exciting when data collection goes well. I get such a feeling of accomplishment. I hope your do too.
