However, they're crucial to reading success. ![]() But these so-called “sight words” that you now read every day (without even noticing!) can actually be quite challenging for children to learn. Given a familiar academic work task that has been completed with support with at least 70% accuracy, STUDENT will independently complete a similar activity as part of his/her daily work routine in order to achieve 80% accuracy without peer or adult assistance, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR.You probably don’t remember learning how to read words like the, is, and am. Given up to _# of (4-6) sentences read aloud by an adult, containing a setting and first, next, then, last sequence of events and five pictures to include one visual distractor, STUDENT will independently cut and glue each picture in the order in which each event occurred by recalling the details read, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR. IEP Goals: Given up to _# of (4-6) sentences containing a first, next, then, last sequence of events, and up to 5 pictures to include one visual distractor, STUDENT will cut, glue, and place the picture in the correct order in which each event occurred, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR (IEP end date). Given _(number of) high frequency words to read to a peer or adult, STUDENT will self-record reading accuracy by marking each response and marking +/-/X or color green/red for correct/incorrect, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR. ![]() Given _(number of) high frequency words presented in isolation, STUDENT will read each word with automaticity and 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR. Given up to six strategies in which STUDENT will rad, highlight, circle, trace, write, and color up to _(number of) high frequency words in order to identify and read, STUDENT will independently complete each task, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR. IEP Goals: Given up to _(number of) high frequency words on flashcards, STUDENT will read each word and mark, put a sticker on, or color the area indicated, in order to actively participate in and reinforce sight word knowledge, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR. ![]()
