How is the Skill Measured?

"The devil is in the details"

When developing your child's IEP (Individualized Education Plan) goals with your child's school team,  make sure you understand how your child's progress toward their goals is going to be measured.

In my experience, some parents may not pay attention to the details in their child's IEP goals where it explains that it will be measured by "observation," "pre and post-line data," or "work samples," to name a couple of examples.  

I simply want to encourage parents to take a look at the goals and make a note of how they are measured being measured.
