Writing Goals and Objectives................................

===GOALS - should also be usable by anyone on the current IEP Team and by anyone working with the child in the future. For instance, if the child moves, the IEP should be written in a way that anyone new to the student’s educational background can pick it up and be able to use it.===

===Each goal listed within an IEP address the student's identifed learning deficit or area of need determined through quantifiable evidence such as reading comprehension. Once this has been established, a comparison can be made between student need and educational standards and which is where many run into problems in IEP development.c===


 * There are 5 parts to an IEP goal:**
 * 1) ===Student’s current performance level===
 * 2) ===Content or functional area to be addressed===
 * 3) ===Expected improvementbenchmark===

He will be given the material in alternate or combined formats until he meets the expected growth line…=== ===*** From the first objective to the last, increase criteria and list how success or failure to meet said criteria will be addressed and which methods will be used to do so.
