Move a LENA Grow child to a different room

Move an existing child to a different classroom when:

  • an enrolled child moves from one active room to another active room
  • a "completed" child who contributed recordings to a classroom will now participate in another group. For example:
    • a refresher group is usually made up entirely of completed children
    • a new standard group may include children who recorded for another, completed room in the past

Children in inactive groups can be moved only by a user with center-level viewing permission.

1. Open the participant's record.

There are several ways to access the participant's screen - here are two.

Use the Participant list
  1. Select the appropriate context.
    • If you know the child is in an active group, select that group in the context menu.
    • If you are not sure, select the entire center (organization) in the context menu.
  2. Use the main menu to open Admin > Participants.
  3. On the Participants screen, filter on "All" participants. If the list is very long, you can then type the child's first or last name in the screen search.
  4. Click on the child's name in the table.

2. In the Enrollment section, select the child's new group from the dropdown.

3. Change the child's Enrollment Status back to enrolled, if needed.

4. Click Submit.

Permissions and restrictions:

  • You can move a child if you have name viewing permissions, and between any two groups you can access, as long as that group is in the same organization as the child's current group.
  • If you need to move a child to a group in a different organization, or you do not see the appropriate group in the dropdown, please contact LENA Support, and provide
    • the child's Parrticipant ID/LENA ID
    • the name of the current group, and
    • the name of the new organization and group
