Guest guest Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Just a note, if your child meets his goals before the end of the year, then you can write new ones! As long as he has special needs, you can keep adding on! Roxanna " The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. " E. Burke ( ) Re: IEP blunders In my son's IEP, we set a goal of being able to do such & such at X% by the end of the academic year. The goals should be realistic for your child, but some should be a little bit of a challenge. The percentages were debated during the meeting - and they always seemed to be made up on the spot. More like guidelines than real data. This is just my opinion, but I always worried that if the goals are too easy, then maybe the teachers would report that your child has reached them all by the end of the year, and maybe you won't get an IEP the next year. Be sure to include some social goals that are easy for NT peers, but tough for AS kids, such as being able to greet teachers and peers appropriately, speaking at the appropriate volume, or making eye contact some of the time.
