Collecting Data During Play-based Intervention

Question

How can I keep track of responses when doing play-based activities in intervention?

Answer

Keep a datasheet next to you.  If you know what your required target is before the child comes into your room, you can keep track of how many times they are getting the target response correct, what sort of feedback they are needing, etc. It can be harder to keep track of the suggested targets, so oftentimes I will keep my required targets as the formal data collection, and then I will scribe some notes on the suggested targets as I go along.
