I liked how she tried to incorporate multiple aspects of language from semantics and syntax to pragmatics into one goal and using a specific measuring tool to show progress. I also like how she gave norms for total number of words, total number of different words, etc. I also like how she tried to encourage not focusing on one level but all levels of conversation to encourage generalization. I could've used some reminders on how to identify total number of different different words, MLU sampling

Such great and practical information! I've been doing this a long time and can relate with the struggle of writing relevant goals consistently. I can also relate with reading others goals and not having a clear picture of what to work on. (I get really bugged with wordy and numerous goals). I'm keeping the handouts to help me write better goals come the fall!
