Welcome to my "Ask Me Anything" blog post series!
I answer lots of questions on my social media channels, and it makes sense to share this information (anonymously!) in case it is useful for others, too.
"Hello, do you have any evidence books or anything that you use alongside your engagement model assessments to show what the children in your class have been learning?"
We have recently started using Evisense, linked with b2, which has engagement profile learning objectives to help us meet and level. We use these to inform individual education plans and learning objectives.
There are other apps, too. I know Tapestry has Cherry Tree, and there’s evidence for learning - it's a great way to go and far less time-consuming! My team members are far less stressed out this year since the change, and the parents love it as they get instant photos and videos of the day.
I hope that helps! If you have any other questions, let me know.
