“Struggles in math” is NOT a specific IEP present level!
Karen explains why vague descriptions aren't enough when developing meaningful IEP goals.
Present levels should clearly identify the student's specific skill deficits, current baseline, and rate of progress.
Simply setting a higher target because another school year has passed isn't individualized planning. Goals need to be grounded in data and realistic expectations for growth!
