Combine details from two paragraphs
When to use this goal
For middle school students who answer right-there questions but give partial answers when the answer is spread across the text. Present levels decide the text level.
- Baseline
- Count an answer correct only when all needed details are there. Note whether the student stops at the first detail found.
- Tips
- Follows the question-type template. Common on state tests.
- Limits
- Writing complete answers takes time; accept oral answers.

Goal
By the annual IEP review date, after reading an unpracticed instructional-level passage, given 4 questions whose answers need details from two or more paragraphs, the student will answer each question with details from each needed paragraph and mark where each detail was found independently with at least 80% accuracy on search-across questions answered completely, on 3 of 4 consecutive biweekly probes, as measured by work-sample analysis collected every two weeks.
Baseline: 30% 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. Work-sample analysis 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 Reading Comprehension.
Met: Level of support. Defined.
Met: Blanks filled in. Nothing left to fill in.

- 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.
