Measuring Progress Objectively
IEPs must include objective means of measuring the child's progress in a special education program. Volume 34 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 300.347, "Content of individualized education program," states that an IEP must include:
(2) A statement of measurable annual goals, including benchmarks or short-term objectives, related to (i) Meeting the child’s needs that result from the child’s disability to enable the child to be involved in and progress in the general curriculum . .
[and]
(7) A statement of (i) How the child’s progress toward the annual goals described in paragraph (a)(2) of this section will be measured; . . .
~Wright’s Law 2006

Criteria for attainment or standard for performance Trials
The third component is criteria for attainment or the standard for performance:
§ at 80% accuracy § 2 times a class period § 8/10 responses § with no pauses or redundancies § for at least 5 minutes

Curriculum Based Assessment Data Collection Teacher/Text Tests State Assessments Teacher Observation Work Samples Other: as charted by teacher Other: as charted by teacher assistant
The evaluation procedure is your ‘Schedule of Evaluation’ for the trials you have written. Teachers write their schedule differently. Some may write a ‘Schedule of Evaluation’ daily, weekly, or monthly.
