Response 1

Henry’s evaluation indicated that his current achievements are in math calculations familiarity, or precision. He also exceeded expectations in his composing tests and letter-word identification. This assessment expected Henry to utilize visual and sound related data to finish every test. Henry struggled with reading comprehension, vocabulary comprehension and composing familiarity and accuracy.

 

Struggling comprehension readers will regularly have issues in different areas. For example, younger students who have issues with phonemic mindfulness often have issues in world deciphering and phonics. Students with familiarity issues normally have cognizance shortcomings. And a frail vocabulary can impact a student’s comprehension abilities as well.

 

Reading is such a vital piece of school and learning. Reading helps improve vocabulary, communication, and grammar skills. It ultimately improves writing skills as well. Because these assessment results indicate that Henry is not making effective progress in the areas of reading and vocabulary comprehension it is imperative that we create extra supports to interventions or Henry will continue to fall behind.

 

Here are three SMART goals for Henry’s success:

 

 

1. By next annual review of Henrys IEP he will have the capacity to retell a story stating important facts from the beginning, middle and end with 100% accuracy based on 8 out of 10 assessments.

 

“Instruction that includes effective practices for improving comprehension, such as setting purposes for reading, connecting content to prior knowledge, predicting the content, responding to questions, and summarizing content, should be used during core instruction for these students.” (McLeskey, J., Rosenberg, M. S., & Westling, D. L.,2018)

 

2. By next annual review of Henry’s IEP when given a second-grade passage Henry will read aloud, with fluency at a rate of 50 words a minute with 90% accuracy in 8 out of 10 trials as measured by reading records or teachers data.

 

Henry’s ability to read fluency, accurately and quickly is important because it provides a bridge between word recognition and comprehension.

 

3. By the next annual review of Henry’s IEP he will write narratives in which they recount a well elaborated events or short sequence of events, include details to describe actions, thoughts, and feelings, use temporal words to signal event order, and provide a sense of closure as measured by student work samples/teacher charted records on 7 out of 10 trials with 90% accuracy.

 

“Writing is a critical skill for students to learn in the early years of school and provide a foundation for later learning. As children learn to write in early elementary grades, instruction primarily focus on learning about text types and purpose for writing, engaging in research to build knowledge that will be focused of writing.” (McLeskey, J., Rosenberg, M. S., & Westling, D. L., 2018)

Response 2

Goal 1: Before the next annual IEP review, Henry will be able to read a short passage, and correctly answer 8/10 comprehension questions, orally, with 85% accuracy,4/5 opportunities.

This IEP goal will improve Henry reading skills by the end of the school year. He will have the knowledge to accumulate meaning from the passage. In addition, he will have the ability to “identify simple facts presented in the written text and state his opinion on the text”. (Iris Center, 2020. Pg.8). Reading Comprehension is essential for Henry to achieve for his academic success and for him to continue an era of learning.

Goal 2: Before the next annual IEP review, Henry will be able to correctly differentiate between synonyms and antonyms, from his reading text, with 90% accuracy, 4/5 opportunities.

This IEP goal Henry will improve his ability and skills to understand words and their meanings to become a successful reader. Vocabulary will inspire his capacity to comprehend what is being taught to him. A well-developed vocabulary is important for him to become successful in reading, so it is very important for him to have in-depth knowledge of the words he is expected to come across when reading.

Goal 3: Before the next annual IEP review, when Henry is given a grade-level text, (story, poem) he will be able to read, comprehend, and correctly answer 8/10 comprehension questions with 90% accuracy, 4/5 opportunities.

This IEP goal Henry will become fluent in reading. This goal is specific, accurate, and measurable. This goal is attainable because his will be able to read, understand, and answer comprehension questions at his grade level. Overall, Henry’s comprehension skills will improve by the end of the school year. He will overcome barriers to understanding what he has read and he will be encouraged to learn new words every day.
