You can now mark Learning activities as complete right from your Lesson plans. Itâs a quick way to keep track of what you taught and optionally share updates with families. It also helps you plan for future lessons by highlighting which activities havenât been implemented.
If thereâs learning you want to document more deeply, you can still log an Observation.
How it works
Staff can mark a Learning activity as complete directly from a Lesson plan. They can also either continue to log a learning Observation or return to the Lesson plan.
They can also choose to share the update with families so they can see what their child learned from their activity feed.
Completed activities will also show a checkmark on the Lesson plan, making it easy to see whatâs been done at a glance.
Mark a Learning activity as complete
When marking a Learning activity as complete, staff will see the option to make it visible to only staff. If left blank, it will also be visible to families on the childâs feed.
