Compare two snacks by their labels

When to use this goal

For high school students who can find label lines but do not use them to compare foods, or who compare whole packages without checking serving size. Present levels, not grade, decide fit.

Baseline
Give five label pairs, some with different serving sizes, and record which answers were correct and why errors happened. Serving-size errors call for a different lesson than reading errors.
Tips
Score each pair as one item, correct only when the answer and the supporting numbers match. Use a health goal named in class, such as less added sugar, rather than a personal diet.
Limits
Measures comparison on paper; pair with the snack choice template for real purchases. Not a diet plan.

Goal

By the annual IEP review date, given pairs of snack or drink labels and a comparison question for each pair, the student will compare the two labels and state which has less added sugar or sodium per serving, giving the numbers independently with at least 80% accuracy on label comparison questions, in 3 of 4 consecutive weekly probes, as measured by work-sample analysis collected weekly.

Baseline: 40% accuracy.

  • Met: Observable behavior. Stated as an action.

  • Met: Condition. Stated.

  • Met: Unit fits the behavior. Percent accuracy fits this behavior.

  • Met: Explicit criterion. Number and unit stated.

  • Met: Mastery rule and schedule. Both stated.

  • Met: Method produces the metric. Work-sample analysis gives percent accuracy data.

  • Met: Review timeframe. Stated.

  • Met: Baseline and target compatible. Same unit, change in the right direction.

  • Met: Aligned with area of need. Still about Health Education.

  • Met: Level of support. Defined.

  • Met: Blanks filled in. Nothing left to fill in.

Checks structure and wording only. Whether the goal fits the student is the team's call.
