Find own size on clothing tags and racks

When to use this goal

For students who shop for clothes with family or staff and pick items without checking the size. Present levels in reading letters and numbers on tags decide fit. The student's sizes are kept in a phone note or card.

Baseline
Ask the student to find 6 items in their size (in a store or from mixed tags). Count correct only when the tag matches the size card.
Tips
Teach rack size dividers as well as tags. Sizes vary by brand, so pair with trying clothes on (fn-dl-060). Keep the size card updated with the family.
Limits
Size alone does not guarantee fit. Few community trips limit data; classroom tags fill in.

Goal

By the annual IEP review date, during a clothing store trip, given a list of the student's sizes and a type of item to find, the student will find an item in the student's size on the rack and check the tag before choosing it independently in at least 5 of 6 opportunities, across 2 consecutive shopping trips or probes, as measured by opportunity-by-opportunity data collected at each clothing trip or classroom probe.

Baseline: 1 of 6 opportunities.

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. Opportunity (trial) recording 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 Functional Academics.

  • 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?
