📈 My Progress Tracker
Jot down your child’s goals and tick them off week by week — seeing the progress written down is what keeps everyone going.
How to use it at home
- Write 2–4 clear goals you’re working on (from a home program, perhaps).
- Each week, tick how it’s going — even small progress counts.
- Note anything that helped, so you can do more of it.
- Look back after a month — you’ll be amazed how far your child has come.
A quick preview — here’s what you’ll print:
| My goals | W1 | W2 | W3 | W4 | W5 | W6 | W7 | W8 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | |

Why this helps
A progress tracker works because progress with children is usually slow and easy to miss. Day to day, it can feel like nothing is changing, and that’s discouraging for any parent. Writing goals down and ticking them off turns those tiny, invisible gains into something you can see on paper — proof that the effort is adding up.
It also keeps everyone pulling in the same direction. In our clinic we find that families who track their goals stay far more consistent, because the tracker gently reminds you what you’re working on and what’s helping. And when you look back after a few weeks, that record of how far your child has come is often the very thing that keeps you going through the harder stretches.
Tips for using it well
- Do write goals in clear, specific terms so you can honestly tell whether they’re moving.
- Don’t track so many goals that it becomes a chore — a handful you care about is plenty.
- Do jot a quick note about what seemed to help, so you can do more of it next week.
- Don’t expect a straight line upward; progress dips and plateaus, and that’s completely normal.
- Do look back over the whole tracker now and then — the long view is where the encouragement lives.
Common questions
How often should I fill in the tracker?
Once a week is usually plenty and keeps it manageable. The point is to catch the overall direction, not to record every single day.
What if a goal isn’t improving at all?
First, well done for noticing — that’s exactly what the tracker is for. It may mean the goal is too big and needs breaking into a smaller step, or that it’s worth a chat with your child’s therapist.
Should my child see the tracker?
For older children, seeing their own progress can be really motivating and give them a sense of pride. For younger ones, a star-based chart is often more meaningful than a written tracker.
