Put three routine pictures in order
When to use this goal
For preschoolers who follow daily routines and are ready to show what comes first, next, and last. Present levels in attending to pictures and in following a picture schedule decide fit; routines the student does every day come first.
- Baseline
- Use 5 sequences and score each as correct only if all three pictures are in order. Photos of the student's own routines are easiest.
- Tips
- Act out the routine first, then sequence the photos. Sequencing builds toward retelling and following schedules. Use the student's language for first, next, last.
- Limits
- Chance of a correct order by guessing is one in six for three pictures; look at the pattern over several probes.

Goal
By the annual IEP review date, given three photos of a familiar routine (handwashing, snack, getting dressed) in mixed order, the student will put the three pictures in order from left to right independently with at least 80% accuracy on picture sequences, in 3 of 4 consecutive weekly probes, as measured by opportunity-by-opportunity data collected weekly.
Baseline: 20% accuracy.

- Score only items the student attempted unless the goal defines a fixed set of items. Use the same denominator every session.
- Percent = numerator ÷ denominator × 100. Round to one decimal place.
- Record the support actually provided, even if the goal is independent performance.
