๐ Complete these tasks on Verbo

Add and screen a pupil
- This could be a fake pupil or a real pupil

- Submit the screener and then select 3 targets to activate
- Head to the pupil’s profile, you will now see the active targets
- Click on the ๐ icon to view the videos linked to the target
- Watch the videos and explore the downloadable resources
- Play around with updating the target (met, partially met, not met) and then complete the target
- Select the Completed Targets card and/or download the Pupil Overview to see how it records progress and outcomes
- Remember to deactivate your fake pupil once you are finished so they aren’t included in your reporting stats!

- Choose one section on the environment audit e.g. visual supports
- Complete the checklist for this section to identify areas to enhance the environment
