Sped Teacher Small Talk: Present Levels of Performance


Listen Later

The spinner gave us a B-R-O-A-D topic this week.

In this 3rd installment of the Sped Teacher Small Talk, we dive into a topic that's super important for all special education teachers: writing present levels of academic and functional performance (PLAAFPs).

Listen in as my co-host, Paul Hubbard, and l explore the importance of accurately assessing a student's strengths and needs, gathering data to support present levels, and translating that information into clear and concise statements for the IEP.

We also provide tips and strategies for writing present levels that are specific, measurable, and relevant to the student's unique circumstances. Whether you're a seasoned educator or new to the field of special education, this episode is sure to provide valuable insights and practical advice for writing effective present levels of academic and functional performance.
