Pick up a cafe order when called
When to use this goal
For middle school students who order at a counter but miss their name when the order is ready, or wait at the register. Needs listening for a name or watching an order screen; present levels decide fit, not grade.
- Baseline
- Record 5 orders. Score correct when the student goes to the counter within about a minute of the call and checks the name or item.
- Tips
- Students who are hard of hearing can watch the order screen or ask the cashier to wave; teach that request as self-advocacy.
- Limits
- Loud places make names hard to hear for anyone. Does not cover ordering.
