Special Education IEP Writing Help Guide Tools for Severe Moderate IEP Goals

Description

Get support with an IEP how to write help guide with scripted phrases for students in a severe/moderate self-contained setting.

When I first started IEP writing, I spent hours trying to perfect the language within them.

I found myself constantly opening old IEPs to see how I worded a particular page or how many minutes were included in an instructional week.

After a handful of times, I realized the large amount of time I was wasting while also seeing the extreme benefit of simplifying the process by using scripted phrases for IEPs.

My solution to my slow writing was to create a document packed with ready to insert sentences and key phrases for each area of the IEP.

Originally, I created an IEP help guide for myself and went on to share it with dozens of co-workers through the years.

The IEP Help Guide became packed with key phrases, alternative writing, and a goal bank.

I also learned that there are two very different IEP formats: one for inclusion students and one for severe/moderate students.

This guide is for the SEVERE/MODERATE version only.

This packet will provide you with an organized and easy to read cheat sheet to copy and paste into your IEPs.

To speed up the writing process even more, I created a clickable table of contents.

I find this is really helpful for me to get to the spot within an IEP that I am looking for and especially during an IEP meeting when I need to insert something quickly.

Please note that the federally mandated sections of the IEP are the same throughout the United States but there may be different wordings and additional sections depending on your location.

Along with the IEP help guide are other documents useful for writing and monitoring.
