New Functional Areas Added to the Present Levels Wizard
Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), Success Skills, and Fine Motor Skills
The accuracy of statements about a student’s present levels of performance can mean success or failure for them. Present levels statements are foundational in education plans because everything in the plan is built off of them. Not only is the Goalbook team committed to rigorous, realistic, and research-based academic statements, we want to ensure that teachers can draft strong functional statements as well.
