Embedding Goals and Objectives into activities

 IEP's are developed to meet the child's need and to enable the child to be involved in and make progress in the general education curriculum. Activities should target specific objectives from the IEP to addresss during the lesson/unit. Teachers should write precise and delineated goals for what he/she want the student to be able to accomplish after each activity/lesson is completed. Also making note of what specific level (% accuracy) the student will perform a given task in order for the activity/lesson to be considered satisfactorially accomplished. Finally, the student's progress should be recorded into some form of data collection record.

  1. Student progress should be recorded and kept in some form of data collection. I am a pre k teacher and I keep anecdotal notes on each child. These notes are kept in an individual folder for each child. When planning activities and noting progress, I refer to these notes to see what is needed in the classroom.

  2. I think it is very important to keep up with a child's progress. If a certain goal or objective has been achieved from doing an activity, it should be documented in some form to show how much progression the child has shown. As a teacher, it is important to know what each child's goals are and how to implement it in an activity so the goal can be made.
