Find when food will be done
When to use this goal
For students in cooking programs who set a timer but cannot say when food will be ready or when to start a second item so both finish together. Present levels in adding minutes to a clock time decide readiness.
- Baseline
- An opportunity is one cooking step with a time. Record errors crossing the hour.
- Tips
- Pairs with setting timers (ma-mtm-009). Real meals make the timing matter.
- Limits
- Kitchen safety is supervised by staff and is not part of this goal.

Goal
By the annual IEP review date, during a cooking lab, given the start time and the cook time on the recipe, the student will add the cook time to the start time and say or write the done time independently in at least 4 of 5 opportunities, on 3 of 4 consecutive cooking sessions, as measured by direct observation collected weekly during cooking lab.
Baseline: 1 of 5 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. 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 Measurement, Time & Money.
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.

- Record up to 5 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.
