Why Connect IEPs to Why Connect IEPs to Standards?Standards?
High stakes accountability, performance goals & indicators
IDEA – access to the general curriculum Essential for closing the achievement gap Promotes a single system of education –
inclusion and a common language Encourage greater consistency across
schools & districts It’s best for kids – assumes more, not less
![Page 3: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Connecting IEPs toConnecting IEPs to Standards… Standards…
Does not mean – Writing goals that restate the
standards Using the academic standards alone to
determine goals Assuming that every student will work
only on grade level content
![Page 4: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Connecting IEPs toConnecting IEPs toStandards…Standards…
Does mean – Referring to standards to determine
expectations at grade level Using the standards as a guide to
determine what is important for the student to learn or be able to do
Conducting an analysis to determine gap between grade expectations and current skills/knowledge
![Page 5: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
General StepsGeneral Steps1. Consider the grade-level content standards
Discuss expected knowledge and skills Examine benchmarks Consider prerequisite knowledge and skills
2. Examine student data to determine where student is in relation to grade-level standards Compare expectations with student’s current
instructional level Gap Analysis
![Page 6: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
IEP #101 and #103 IEP #101 and #103
There are two places to record present level information on the IEP:
Student Profile Page Goal Pages
![Page 7: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Present Level - Selecting the Standard
Discuss intent of standards:
What are the knowledge and skills necessary for the student to achieve to a level that is expected in the standards?
What are the prerequisite skills?
![Page 8: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Selecting the Standard Determine which standards are most
important for each student (based on progress in the general education curriculum)
Compare standard(s) with student’s areas of need and the impact of the disability
Use data to determine the areas the student will find difficult without additional supports
![Page 9: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Identifying Instructional NeedIdentifying Instructional Need
Consider the target grade level standards
RI.6.2: Determine a central idea of a text and how it is conveyed through particular details; provide a summary of the text distinct from personal opinions or judgments.
![Page 10: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Identification of NeedIdentification of Need
1. Consider the target grade level standards Identify critical knowledge and skills within
the standards Use a data analysis process to conduct a
drill down Identify the gap
![Page 11: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

2. Of these skills, where does the student demonstrate proficiency? (These could become descriptors in the Present Level Statements)
Formal assessment Informal assessment
Identification of NeedIdentification of Need
![Page 13: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3. Can the standard(s) be achieved with an accommodation?
For example, can the student: Demonstrate the central idea of a
text if given orally rather than being asked to read the items independently?
Summarize the text when it is read orally?
Identification of NeedIdentification of Need
![Page 14: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
4. Given these responses: What skills need to be taught explicitly to
demonstrate proficiency on the targeted standard?
Which skills/knowledge can be acquired in the general classroom with an accommodation/assistive technology?

Writing Present Level Writing Present Level StatementsStatements
Describe performance in academic and non-academic areas
Include relationship between evaluation/assessment data and Present Level Statements
Use objective, measurable terms Ensure data is self-explanatory (or
provide an explanation of score)
![Page 16: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Functional PerformanceFunctional Performance
Students: social/emotional (behavioral) performance communication skills performance in areas of recreation/leisure, self-
management, independent living, etc.Ask…“ What have we learned about this student’s ability to function independently and appropriately with peers and adults?”
![Page 17: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Putting it All TogetherPutting it All TogetherOn the IEP:
The Present Level Statements must include: Academic and functional performance:
strengths, needs and data sources Adverse affect of the disability in the general
education curriculum - The Impact Statementfor preschool children, the affect on participation in age appropriate activities
![Page 18: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Review of Present Level StatementsReview of Present Level Statements
1. Are they related to the vision (desired
outcome) for this student?2. Do they reflect what the student knows in
relation to the general curriculum or standards expectations; strengths/needs?
3. Are they stated in measurable terms?4. Do they include up to date data sources?5. Do they include strengths, needs, and
disability’s impact on access to the general curriculum?
6. Are they self-explanatory?
![Page 21: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Present LevelRemember…The Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance sets the stage for developing IEP goals!
![Page 22: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Before and After
• SLE was the goal
• Present Level - often general information regarding broad areas of the curriculum such as “reading”
• Standard anchors the goal
• Present Level - specific to each standard such as, “ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for answers”
Before SB IEP’s After SB-IEP IEPs
![Page 23: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Before and After
• Present Level - often incomplete or spotty; list of scores from standardized tests
• Present Level - objective measurable terms; self explanatory
• Present Level - up-to-date data sources included in description of where student is functioning in regard to standard expectation
Before SB IEP’s After SB-IEP IEPs
![Page 24: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Before and After
• Standard was the goal; not very measurable or attainable for some students
•Goals - based on gap analysis between student’s present level of functioning and knowledge/skill expectations standards •Goals - based on what student can be expected to master within one year’s time•Goals - linked to specific skills or knowledge to be mastered; measurable and attainable
Before SB IEP’s After SB-IEP IEPs

Accommodations: New Options
• PARCC Summative Assessments allow for several different accommodations that we have not allow previously in AR.
• These accommodations have always been allowed in the classroom setting, just not on standardized test.
• Some students may be receiving low-tech versions of these supports in the classroom
![Page 27: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
New Options• Text to Speech or Video of a Human ASL Interpreter for the
ELA/Literacy Assessments (Reading Access Accommodation)
• Calculation Device and Mathematics Tools (on Non-calculator Sessions of Mathematics Assessments)
• Scribing or Speech-to-Text (i.e., Dictation/Transcription) for constructed responses on the ELA/Literacy Assessments
• Word Prediction on the ELA/Literacy Performance-Based Assessment
![Page 28: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Criteria for using Reading Access
Type of Student:
• Blind or visually impaired and has not yet, or cannot, learn to read braille
• Deaf or hearing impaired with history of significant language deprivation
• Other disability that severely limits/prevents student from accessing printed text after varied/multiple attempts to teach student (unable to decode or read fluently)
Conditions that must be present:
• Student is receiving this accommodation during instruction and regular assessments
• Student’s inability to decode printed text is documented and verified through locally administered diagnostic assessments
• Student receives ongoing, intensive instruction/intervention in foundational reading skills
![Page 29: SB-IEP Booster Shot:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815a83550346895dc7eeda/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
What are Foundational Reading Skills?
• According to the CCSS:
• Print Concepts
• Phonological Awareness
• Phonics and Word Recognition
• Fluency
There are specific standards for these skills in grades K-5. Students in grades 6 -12 may still be working on some or all of these skills.

Wrapping it up…• The present level should tell the story of the student’s
educational need.• There should be a clear relationship between the
student’s areas of of need and the educational services provided to the student.
• This includes the demonstrating the basis for decisions to use “special” accommodations.
• The student should be using any accommodation they receive on a standardized test on a regular basis in the classroom.
• It is OK to mix high tech and low tech versions of an accommodation. Just make sure they are not experiencing the high tech version for the first time during assessment.

Items for clarification• Must include at least one academic standard• Must include standard for tested area• Do not have to tie functional goals to an academic standard
• Objectives do not have to be four or five part, but do have to be measurable
