Finish assigned chores on a shared chore chart
When to use this goal
For young adults who will share a home with roommates, family, or in supported living, and who finish a chore only when reminded. Present levels in checking a schedule decide fit, not grade.
- Baseline
- Count each assigned chore on its day as one opportunity over 2 weeks. Record whether it was done by the end of the day, and any reminder given.
- Tips
- Let roommates choose and trade chores at a weekly house meeting; that is part of adult shared living. Pair with a self-determination goal if the student is learning to negotiate tasks.
- Limits
- Does not score how well each chore is done; add a task analysis for chores that need it. Counts depend on the chart being kept up to date.
