The running record is a detailed, objective, sequential recording written down while the event is happening. The observer writes down everything possible that the child says and does during a specified length of time or during a designated activity. A brief conclusion is added to summarize the development demonstrated by the behavior or event observed and recorded. Use the side margin to make comments about the length of time that has elapsed or to describe additional information about an activity.
