Signal all done after a task
When to use this goal
For preschoolers who push materials away, leave, or cry when finished with a task, because they do not yet have a clear way to say they are done. Present levels in communication and the student's AAC system decide fit.
- Baseline
- Record 10 natural endings across routines over 3 days: did the student signal all done in any clear way before leaving or pushing materials away.
- Tips
- Honor the signal right away so it works for the student. Pair it with a finished bin so the routine has an end. The same signal works for breaks and requests to stop.
- Limits
- The goal teaches a signal, not task completion; a student may signal all done early. That is information for the team, not a failure.

Goal
By the annual IEP review date, at the end of a table task or puzzle, when the last piece is in, the student will say, sign, or touch the all done symbol when finished independently in at least 8 of 10 opportunities, on 4 of 5 consecutive data days, as measured by opportunity-by-opportunity data collected daily.
Baseline: 1 of 10 opportunities.

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 Preschool & Kindergarten Readiness.
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.

- Record up to 10 opportunities per session, matching the goal's denominator.
- Define in advance what counts as an opportunity so every data collector records the same thing.
- Count only + marks toward the criterion unless the goal specifies prompted responses.
