In a perfect we could do every thing she advocates and we wouldn't see leaps in independence on any level. While I do believe many of these students should have more life skills than they have now under common core.....Most schools will not let us write goals this way or even touch on functional skills. I honestly it shouldn't be the SLP in buildings coordinating this......we just have too much to do. Until things change at the next level up meaning more opportunities and more housing nothing

This was a well organized lesson on thinking outside the box for goal writing, especially for our high school students who are mod/severe. It would require buy in from the overall IEP team, and confidence and leadership by the SLP, but it is very useful.

Credit to her for diving deep to ensure the best services for her students. It takes a lot of effort to convince all stake holders to work together and to ensure they are doing so.

Sorry. This was extremely boring. I didn't feel like there was new content or content that would help me write a better functional goal. I disagreed with a few things presented 1-rubrics 2-keeping the same goal after one year because we have the same student 1-Rubrics are for the providers only-parents never look at them and they are too complicated for stThe point of creating a goal is to try to make progress so if you're not making progress, possibly the goal or supports needs to be changed.
