Description

Most progress notes are too vague to be useful. But when you write them with clarity and intention, they become powerful tools for instruction and advocacy.

In this episode of Be The Exception, you'll learn:

  • The 4-part formula for writing progress notes that tell a story.

  • How to connect your data directly to your instructional decisions.

  • Real examples of vague vs. meaningful notes.

Plus, I'm sharing my free guide to help you Tackle Progress Reports Like a Pro so you can save time and stress less.
