When to use this goal

For students who cannot give the information a helper would need if they were lost. Present levels in recall and communication (speech, AAC, or showing a card) decide the response mode and the order to teach: name first, then phone, then address. Full name, phone number, and address together is too much for preschool; for a preschool student, write the goal for first and last name only (the first objective).

Baseline
Ask for the three items on 3 occasions with different adults. Score each item correct only when complete and accurate (all digits of the phone number). Confirm the information with the family before probing.
Tips
The family decides what personal information is taught. For students experiencing homelessness, in foster care, or in protective situations (for example, a domestic violence safety plan), teach an emergency contact card instead of a home address, and confirm with the family or caseworker what may be shared. Students who do not speak can show an ID card or use an AAC page; that is independent. Keep the information private: practice one-to-one, not in front of the class. A song or rhythm helps many students recall the phone number.
Limits
Reciting information in a lesson differs from giving it when frightened; add role-plays. Addresses and phone numbers change; recheck with the family each year.

Goal

By the annual IEP review date, when asked by a familiar adult for own full name, phone number, and address, the student will state own full name, a caregiver's phone number, and home address independently with 100% accuracy on personal information items, on 3 consecutive weekly probes, as measured by opportunity-by-opportunity data collected weekly.

Baseline: 33% 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. Opportunity (trial) recording 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 Community & Safety Skills.

  • 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.

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.
