Make up classwork missed during pull-out

When to use this goal

For students who leave class for speech, counseling, or other services and never make up what the class did. Teams should first decide which missed work is essential. Present levels, not grade, decide fit.

Baseline
Track pull-out sessions for two weeks and whether missed work was collected and finished.
Tips
The team agrees on what is essential so students are not double loaded. A tray makes collecting easy.
Limits
Scheduling services during core instruction is often the root problem; review the service schedule first. Make-up work should be trimmed to essentials so the student is not doing double work.

Measurability check11 of 11 met
  • Met: Observable behavior. Stated as an action.

  • Met: Condition. Stated.

  • Met: Unit fits the behavior. Opportunities fits this behavior.

  • Met: Explicit criterion. Number and unit stated.

  • Met: Mastery rule and schedule. Both stated.

  • Met: Method produces the metric. Direct observation gives opportunities 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 Assignment Completion.

  • 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.
