Write Present Levels: Telling the Right Story in the IEP

Updated: Oct 6
Available as a One-Day Workshop by Carol Kosnitsky

Present levels of academic achievement and functional performance (PLAAFP) provide the foundation for every effective IEP. This 1-day session will delve into the essential information necessary to inform a current and relevant PLAAFP. With a more intentional approach to collecting and analyzing input from key stakeholders and formal and informal data, IEP writers will have all the necessary information to describe the student’s strengths as well as how disability affects both involvement in the curriculum and the student’s needs. Equipped with this information, the PLAAFP can paint a picture of the necessary specially designed instruction and supplementary aids and supports each student needs. Participants will review models and reflect upon their own IEPs and leave with a renewed enthusiasm to “tell the right story.”
This training can be presented as a 1-day workshop, or as a part of the larger 4-day Institute: IEP Intensive: Leveraging the IEP for Improved Teaching and Learning
