After placement, the special education teacher may conduct a curriculum-based assessment or use teaching probes to gather further information about the child’s unique learning needs. The teacher may maintain a daily chart of the child’s academic performance and also maintain a record of self-management skills.

The list also includes tests, rating scales and checklists, and charts and records concerning each child with exceptionalities.
