How Do I Choose IEP Goal Areas for IEPs?

How do I choose IEP goals for my students? l Miss Rae's Room Teaching Reading to Students with Learning Disabilities Blog
You did the assessments.  You have the data.  But how do you decide if the lagging skills should be a goal area, an accommodation, or a modification?

Let me tell you!

Here's how I decide if a lagging skill should be a goal area, an accommodation, or a modification!

I start by asking...

What areas of the curriculum are impacted by the student's disability?

Then, I go through each item on my list and ask...

Can we put an accommodation or modification in place to remove this hurdle to the curriculum?

OR

Is this a hurdle that requires Specially Designed Instruction?

Now, review your list and...

1-Add accommodations to the IEP
-be specific & choose appropriate accommodations for the student's disability

2-Hurdles that need Specially Designed Instruction are your goal areas!

Example:

Hurdles:  Fluency, Comprehension

IEP GOAL:
By the end of the IEP period, STUDENT will achieve a benchmark score of 16 (or higher) of the DIBELS' subtest MAZE.

IEP OBJECTIVE:
STUDENT will a score of 96 (or higher) on 3 consecutive administrations of the DIBELS' Oral Reading Fluency - Accuracy.

PEACE,
