Individualized Education Plan (IEP) Goals, objectives and home tracking

Let’s delve into the nuts and bolts of IEP goals and objectives and learn more about the importance of having a proactive approach to collecting data at home. Tips will be offered on synthesizing information from classwork, how to collect information from homework observations, and how to use information from your child’s preferences and out-of-school activities. Give your child credit for their unique gifts, and include that data in the IEP.
