Aside from anecdotal notes and data toward SMART goals I take on visits, we use two assessment tools. Classroom Assessment Scoring System (which I love) and Program Quality Assessment (a tool for infant-Pre-K programs) The PQA is nice because it also measures things like the quality of family engagement opportunities.

I work with a classroom of Middle School ED students. One student, who I worked with the year before, has changed alot over the year. Last year (pre COVID), she had a good head on her shoulders and I thought I had good rapor with her. But over that period of isolation, she tried to commit suicide.

All year, she was much more withdrawn and ALWAYS on her phone! At the end of the I was 'beat up by her - she really knocked my glasses off.

How should I approach her in the upcoming year?
