FAQ

How often should I update the goals on this report card?

It is recommended to review and potentially update goals every 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the student's progress and changing needs.

What should I do if the student consistently scores low?

If scores are consistently low, the goals may be too difficult. Break the goals down into smaller, more manageable steps or increase the frequency of positive reinforcement.

Can this be used for students of all ages?

Yes, the template can be adapted for any age. For younger students, use simpler language and visual icons; for older students, focus on executive functioning tasks like organization and time management.
