Include engaging multisensory approaches that support the student in identifying letter names and corresponding sounds at an appropriate pace. Consider how to scaffold instruction

This resource is designed to guide educators in crafting developmentally appropriate IEP goals focused on early literacy skills for kindergarten students, particularly those with developmental delays. It introduces the ABCDEF framework for setting goals, specifically targeting letter recognition and phonemic awareness. The document outlines helpful strategies for measuring progress, including sample goals, quarterly benchmarks, and various instructional methods like multisensory approaches to engage students. Educators will also find guidance on scaffolding instruction, including introducing letters based on student interest and performance levels, as well as strategies to foster inclusion and collaboration among teachers, families, and support staff. The ultimate objective is to equip educators with practical tools and strategies to enhance early literacy outcomes in diverse classroom settings.
