Methods to Document Targeted Behaviours

In the previous section, we focused on observation methods educators can use to document spontaneous observations. However, sometimes have specific questions they need answers to, so different methods are required. For instance, an educator might be wondering why a particular child always cries when it’s time to go outside, or they might be curious which areas of the classroom a child visits throughout the course of the day. In this section, we’ll explore methods that can be used to answer these types of questions.
