Finish classwork in a co-taught class
When to use this goal
For students in co-taught classes who finish work when the special educator sits with them but leave it half done when that teacher is working with others. The work should be at a level the student can complete with the class's supports. Present levels, not grade, decide the target.
- Baseline
- For two weeks, both teachers mark the percent of each classwork assignment finished in the period. Note whether completion differs by which teacher is nearby, by subject, or by station.
- Tips
- Both teachers agree on what finished means and use the same check-in words, so the student is not relying on one adult. A shared tally sheet on the class clipboard keeps data simple. Fade the check-in to a written reminder at the top of the page.
- Limits
- Completion is not accuracy; pair with an academic goal if needed. Co-teaching models change across the year (station, parallel, one teach one assist), which can shift the data; note the model used.

Goal
By the annual IEP review date, during independent practice in a co-taught math or English class, with both teachers circulating, the student will finish the assigned classwork by the end of the work period and place it in the class turn-in spot independently, completing at least 85% of assigned classwork items in co-taught classes, across 3 consecutive weeks, as measured by work-sample analysis collected weekly.
Baseline: 45% of assigned work.

Met: Unit fits the behavior. Work completion 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 work completion data.

Checks structure and wording only. Whether the goal fits the student is the team's call.
Short-term objectives (optional)
When are objectives required?Required for students on alternate assessments (34 CFR §300.320(a)(2)(ii)); some states require them for everyone.

- Record how many assigned items were completed and how many were assigned for the defined work period.
- Percent = numerator ÷ denominator × 100. Round to one decimal place.
- Record the support actually provided, even if the goal is independent performance.
