Record home practice sentences for SLP scoring
When to use this goal
For students accurate in sentences in therapy who practice at home and send a short recording for the SLP to score. Recordings give the SLP a sample from outside school and let the student hear themselves. Base the choice on sentence-level data and access to a device at home or at school.
- Baseline
- Score the first recording against the same sentences produced in therapy; home accuracy is often a little lower and that gap is useful information. Check that the student and family are comfortable with recording and that the method fits school privacy rules.
- Tips
- The SLP scores every target-sound occurrence in the recording. Share the score and one tip with the student each week. The description condition gives a sample closer to conversation. Use only school-approved tools for recordings, and delete them on the school's schedule.
- Limits
- A student may re-record until it sounds right, which inflates accuracy; that is still practice, but note it. Requires a device and consent; never make access a condition of services.

Goal
By the annual IEP review date, when recording 10 target-sound sentences at home on a school-approved device or app, the student will record each sentence with the target sound produced correctly independently with at least 90% accuracy on target-sound productions in recorded sentences, in 3 of 4 consecutive weekly recordings, as measured by work-sample analysis collected weekly.
Baseline: 55% 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 Articulation.
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.

- 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.
