Writing Goals

Writing Goals
Using KCCRS
• Academics
•
•
•
•
Reading
Language Arts
Writing
Math
• Transition
• If needed
• Seniors
• Behavior
What areas do I need to
write a goal in?
• Goals are based on data that justifies a need
• If you are providing support in that area—you need a
goal
• Consult IEPs still need to have a goal
How do I know if I need a
goal?
• KCCRS—All Academic goals
• Reading
• Math
• Children taking the DLM—Must qualify for it.
• Use the Essential Elements
• Behavior goals are based on the Social and Emotional
Standards
What do I base my goals
on?
• Based on diagnostic data
• ELA will be grade level
• Math may or may not be at their grade level-due to scope
and sequence.
• Behavior—data collected on the behavior
How do I know which
standards to choose?
• Reading/Writing/Language Arts
• Reading only, writing only or combined to Language Arts
• Reading Level—GE and Accuracy—Jerry Johns
• Error analysis on the reading
• Types of errors-missed words, endings, substitutions, etc.
• Comprehension-retell, sequence, inference, compare, contrast, etc.
• Vocabulary—ESL or second language learner-usually a major
concern
• Writing—Sample, suggest CBM
• Error analysis—Think back to 6 traits of writing.
• Language Arts is a combined reading and writing goal.
• For further information: Talk to the classroom teacher
Clarify
• Math
• Error Analysis of math skills, computation and application
• Scope and sequence
• Diagnostics—IXL, teacher reports, CBM, placement tests,
etc.
• May be over multiple grade levels
Clarify
• Behavior
• Observations
• Data collected
Clarify
• Fluency—reading range
• Vocabulary—vocabulary (Definite if second language
student)
• Comprehension—Key ideas, Craft and Structure,
Integration of knowledge and Ideas
• May need to look at both Literature and Informational
texts
Let’s Look at specific
standards
• Writing
• Types and Purposes—Different formats for writing
• Production and Distribution—Improving writing features
• Research—How to do and write up results
Let’s Look at specific
standards
• Math
•
•
•
•
•
Scope and sequence
May be multiple grade levels
Computation—lower level skills
Application—high level skills
Take practice standards into consideration
Let’s Look at specific
standards
• Behavior
• Grade level
• Character, Personal Development, Social Development
• Choose one, two, or all three areas
Let’s Look at specific
standards
• DLM—Must meet criteria

•
•
Must have a goal for reading and one for math
Must be registered for DLM. Fill out first contact survey after Oct. 1.
The First Contact Survey determines the Linkage Level that will be delivered to the
student when the student enters the assessment.
There are 5 linkage levels:
•
Successor
•
Target
•
Proximal
•
Distal
•
Initial
Let’s Look at specific
standards
This is what they look like
• Choose between 4-8 standards
• This is a year long plan
• Math and Essential elements have numbers to go along
with the standard—please write out the standard
• ELA have anchor standards, domains and indicators,
write out the specific indicator you are using.
How to fill out the
rubrics?
See, it wasn’t so
bad after all!
