IEP Goals and Objectives - Define what your child will achieve:

IEP Goals should always be geared towards a child's specific disability(ies). Begin with a list of the child's identified areas of disability (obtained from evaluations and/or classroom data). For each deficit area, ask yourself, "What would success in this area look like? What would we expect to see the child DOING?"

Desired behaviors must be observable, measurable tasks. Good goals don't contain unmeasureable words such as demonstrate, understand, comprehend, improve, etc. How will you know if a child understands? Comprehends? Has improved? You will measure it by observing a behavior, thus the actual behavior should be stated in the goal. Based upon what success will look like, formulate specific goals using the following steps:

1) State the Target Outcome:
Read 5th grade-level texts fluently and accurately
Spell the first 700 Frequently Used Words accurately

2) State the Conditions of Demonstration:
Across all settings
In classroom work prior to editing

3) State the Standards Criteria:
At 150 words per minute
With 98% accuracy in all spontaneously written work

4) Assemble into an Objective, Measurable Goal:
• Y.C. will read 5th grade texts fluently and accurately in all settings at 150 words per minute.
• In classroom work, prior to editing, Y.C. will spell the first 700 Most Frequently Used Words accurately.

Objective steps to leading to the main goal might be:
• Y.C. will fluently and accurately read the first 700 Most Frequently Used Words at 110 w.p.m. by November.
• Y.C. will fluently and accurately read the first 1200 Most Frequently Used Words at 125 w.p.m. by February.
• Y.C. will fluently and accurately read the first 1200 Most Frequently Used Words at 140 w.p.m. by May.
