Setting up the Cherry Garden Bridging framework

[RichardTapestrySupport]

In this tutorial we'll look at how to set up the Cherry Garden Bridging framework. This follows on from the main Cherry Garden framework and includes branches 11 and 12 in the areas of Mathematics and English. If you are looking to set up the main Cherry Garden framework you can find our tutorial on this here.

To enable the Cherry Garden Bridging framework you will need to go to the Control Panel (1) > Settings (2) > Assessments (3) and then click the 'Configure' button next to the framework.

 

 

You will then need to tick the box to enable the Cherry Garden Bridging framework (1). You can also select whether or not you would like the framework to be visible to relatives (2). If you tick this box they will be able to see assessments made using this framework on their children's observations.

 

 

Below this you will see options to set your Best Fit Threshold (1) and the number of refinements (2). Your Best Fit Threshold will be the point at which each branch for each strand is considered complete. The percentage is worked out based on the number statements and which refinements have been added to a child's observations. So to reach 100% they would need to have all statements for a branch ticked and the highest refinements for each. You can view a child's progress with this on our Best Fit tracking screen. You can find our tutorial on this here.

Under this you will be able to select the name for each of your refinements (3) as well as a short name (4) and colour (5) which will help you identify your refinements when tracking.

 

 

Once you are done, click submit.

 

 

The Cherry Garden Bridging framework will now be enabled on your account. You will be able to see it under the 'Assessments' section when you are adding or editing an observation.

 

 

You will also be able to view the tracking screens for the Cherry Garden Bridging framework by clicking the 'Tracking' tab (1) then 'Cherry Garden Bridging' (2).
