Activity 1.2: Engagement Tracker
Noticing What Lights Them Up
This tracker helps you notice when and how your child lights up during reading — the moments that reveal what truly motivates them. As you model joyful reading, you may start to see small but powerful shifts: a longer glance at the page, a giggle at a funny line, a curious question. These are the sparks of engagement that tell you connection is happening.
Use the Engagement Tracker to capture these moments visually. It isn’t about grading attention — it’s about noticing patterns: what draws your child in, when focus fades, and how your shared energy shapes the experience.
The Engagement Tracker helps you capture those moments in a simple, visual way. It’s not about grading your child’s attention — it’s about noticing patterns: what draws them in, when focus fades, and how your shared energy changes the experience.
Use it as a gentle reflection tool to celebrate what’s working and to guide small adjustments that keep reading joyful and responsive.
