Braille own name on class work
When to use this goal
For young braille writers ready to label their own work, as classmates write names on papers. Present levels in writing the letters of their name decide fit.
- Baseline
- Track five chances across a day to write the name and record whether the student writes it unprompted, after a cue, or not at all. Check that the name is readable.
- Tips
- Count an opportunity only when the student's classmates are also writing their names. Set up the braillewriter or label maker within reach.
- Limits
- Writing a memorized name is a routine, not spelling. Students who write on a notetaker can use the same template with the device named in the condition.

- Record up to 5 opportunities per session, matching the goal's denominator.
- Define in advance what counts as an opportunity so every data collector records the same thing.
- Count only + marks toward the criterion unless the goal specifies prompted responses.
