Individual Education Program - IEP Goals Bank

Special Education Teaching Resources and IEP Goal Bank | TeachTastic

General Education Curriculum Focused IEPS

When a child has been identified as having a disability, the first step in creating their Individualized Education Program (IEP) is to evaluate the child's disability and assess the child's present levels.

Teachers use this information to write the IEP, with standards-based IEP goals. TeachTastic has these annual goals and objectives prewritten and easy to find based on the child's progress within the general education curriculum or state standard alignment.

As the child progresses, the TeachTastic goals and objectives are scaffolded accordingly. This process ensures that each child receives an individualized education that meets their unique needs.

Assess the Child's Present Levels of Performance

When designing an education plan for students with special needs, it is essential to start with an accurate assessment of the levels of performance. This assessment forms the foundation on which all future goals and objectives will be based. TeachTastic iep goals and iep goal workbooks have data tracking built-in for easy and accurate assessment of each student's progress ready whenever it's needed.

Write the Child's Individualized Education Program IEP

Standards-based IEP Goals

National guidelines require that iep goals are aligned with grade-level standards. This means that each goal should focus on a specific skill or concept that the child is expected to learn in their current grade. For example, if a child is in 3rd grade, their IEP goals should focus on skills and concepts that are taught in the 3rd grade curriculum. TeachTastic is both skill and standards aligned with quick navigating pages to find exactly what you're looking for.

Developing Annual Goals and Objectives

Now that you have the child's current levels of performance and iep goals written, it's time to develop measurable iep objectives. These objectives will serve a dual purpose: they will help you track the child's progress towards the goals, and they will be used to write measurable IEP goals.

Perfect IEP Team Meeting Data Tracking

Teach Tastic designed short-term objectives are used to measure progress on annual goals in eight-week or quarterly intervals.

TeachTastic "Skill Differentiated" Teaching Materials

Special Education Math, Reading, and Writing Resources

Skill Differentiation is a pedagogical approach that involves breaking down learning skills into smaller, more manageable targets. This approach is particularly useful in intervention or special education contexts where students may have difficulty with certain skills and require more focused and individualized instruction.

 

Skill Differentiation aims to provide students with a clear and structured learning path, which can help them build skills incrementally and achieve success. By breaking down skills into smaller, more manageable targets, teachers can identify specific areas of strength and weakness and provide targeted instruction and support.

 

To implement Skill Differentiation, teachers first identify the overarching skill or concept that needs to be taught. They then break down this skill into smaller, more specific targets or micro-skills. These targets are organized into a logical sequence, with each target building on the previous one.

 

Once the targets have been identified, teachers can develop learning activities and assessments focusing on each micro-skill. This approach allows students to work at their own pace and allows them to master each micro-skill before moving on to the next.

 

Skill Differentiation can be applied to various learning skills, from reading and writing to math and social-emotional learning. It is particularly effective for students who struggle with executive functioning, attention, and memory, providing them with clear and manageable targets to focus on.

 

Overall, Skill Differentiation is a powerful tool for teachers working in intervention or special education contexts. By breaking down learning skills into smaller, more manageable targets, teachers can provide targeted instruction and support that meets the individual needs of each student.
