The Intentional IEP

What can your student do right now? That's what Screeners are for.

Stop guessing where to start.

Get 12 IEP Screeners to help you gather meaningful baseline data, identify skill gaps, and make stronger IEP decisions.

7 (seven) English-Language Arts Screeners - letter-sound correspondence, phoneme segmentation, CVC word decoding, words with digraphs + blends, oral reading fluency, literal reading comprehension, and written sentence construction.

5 (five) Math Screeners - Counting with one-to-one correspondence, comparing numbers + quantities, addition within 10, place value, and one-step addition + subtraction word problems.

These aren't random worksheets pulled together to make a freebie.

They're quick academic screeners designed to give you useful information about what your student can do, where a skill may be breaking down, and what you may need to assess next.

Because “they struggle with reading” isn't a baseline.

Neither is: “They're behind in math.” or “They have trouble writing.” or “They can't comprehend what they read.”
You need to know where the skill is breaking down.

A student who struggles with CVC words...

...might need support with letter-sound correspondence, phonemic awareness, blending, vowel sounds—or decoding itself.

A student who struggles with word problems...

...might understand addition perfectly but have difficulty identifying the operation, understanding math vocabulary, or comprehending the problem.

The more specifically you understand...

...what a student can and cannot do, the more intentionally you can decide what comes next.

That's what good baseline data helps you do.

Start with these 12 skills.

Use the Screeners to gather data for students working across a range of foundational instructional levels.

You might use them when you're:

gathering baseline data before writing an IEP
developing stronger Present Levels

determining whether a skill is appropriate for a potential IEP goal

trying to pinpoint where an academic breakdown is occurring

deciding what you need to assess next

collecting data as students work toward targeted skills

Print the screener you need. Follow the directions. Assess the skill.

Then use what you learn to decide your next step.

Know what to do. Have what you need. Know what's next.
