Google Classroom • 3 Trimesters
Platform: Google Classroom
Setting: Pull-Out (1×30 min/wk)
Reporting: Dec • Mar • Jun
Evaluation: Work Sample & Log
Present Level of Academic & Functional Performance (PLAAFP)
The student frequently misplaces instructional materials, leaves backpack compartments disorganized, and checks Google Classroom inconsistently—recording fewer than 40% of posted assignments. Without 1:1 adult prompting, the student struggles to navigate Google Classroom's "To-Do" or "Missing" tabs and lacks an intentional system to prioritize tasks by importance.
Annual SMART Goal Target Statement (June IEP Completion)
Mastery: 80% over 4 consecutive sessions
By the June reporting period, given weekly 30-minute direct executive functioning pull-out instruction, a structured organizational checklist, and access to Google Classroom (including "To-Do", "Missing", and course streams), the student will independently (1) organize physical belongings and backpack materials, (2) locate and record 100% of weekly assignments and due dates from Google Classroom, and (3) generate a prioritized task checklist ranked by level of importance (Must Do, Should Do, Could Do) with no more than one indirect prompt, achieving an overall rubric score of 80% or higher across 4 consecutive weekly data sessions.
