Depending on the situation but most of our babies are nonverbal! Expressing what took place as if they were in. E child’s shoes. “She had a good day” is really vague

“Today she worked on her IEP goals and for math we did touch math she is doing great on her 2’s, she was a bit frustrated but as time went on she began to enjoy the lesson, at the end of her six weeks I will send you a video home for you view her progress”

The above message is an example of what should be sent home

Recommend eatablishing a personal means of communocation between you and her lead teacher (text, email, etc) so that you cam get the personalized attention that you need for the best for tour child. Now teachers are busy with many kids, but a good one will provide you with a way to reach him/her directly for feedback, coaching and insite. I receive this same type of generic form each day my child comes home from school. My child’s lead teacher says flat out that shes not going to tell me everytime that Lauryn does something off or had a bad day because of the pressure that they apply on her to inspire her to adjust, behave, socialize, learn, etc. She said that she would only be concerned if Lauryn was NOT responding and that “acting out” is a very notmal part of their days...its the only way to learn and deal with the challenges. But I recommend that you have more one on one time with your child’s lead teacher - demand it. You are your child’s best advocate! :-)

We get a 2 sided log. I can tell when her teacher fills it out or when the paraprofessionals fill it out. When the teacher fiils it out, i know what she did for each subject, how her mood was, her potty training and I have lengthy comments. When the para's fill it out, it's basic info...she had a good day, she didn't do this or she was irritated.

Well, you sure get a whole lot more than what I get in the log 🤣 I just get they had a good day. I've gotten there personal numbers or just call the school and talk with them if I want details.

Even one sentence summarizing a highlight of the day linked to an activity could help you talk with your child at home. And it’s necessary because other peers her age talk with their parents after school about their day and activities and reflect on the day. The ABA sends us a report and breaks down the day into five chunks with one sentence highlights. I will take one or two of those to talk with my child about his day since he will rarely volunteer info on his own. If teacher can’t do it, maybe the aide in the classroom can?
