The Individualized Education Plan (IEP) that accompanies this document is meant to support the
positive process and team approach. The IEP is a working document that outlines the student’s
vision for the future, strengths, and needs. The IEP is not written in isolation. The intent of an
IEP is to bring together a team of people who understand and support the student in order to
come to a consensus on a plan and appropriate and effective education for the student. No two
teams are alike, and each team will arrive at different answers, ideas, supports, and services to
address the student’s unique needs. The student and his/her family members are vital
participants, as well as teachers, assistants, specialists, outside service providers, and the
principal. When all team members are present, the valuable information shared supports the
development of a rich student profile and education plan.

Factors for IEP Team Consideration
During the IEP meeting, the following factors must be considered by the IEP team. Best practice
suggests that the IEP team documents that the factors were considered and any decision made
relative to each. The factors are addressed in other sections of the IEP if not documented on this
page (for example see PLAAFP).
1. Results of the initial or most recent evaluation of the student:
According to psychological evaluation, Elli demonstrates overall ability in the average range.
She demonstrates substantially less well developed long-term retrieval, associative memory, and
auditory processing, specifically phonemic awareness. According to an achievement assessment,
Elli demonstrates average oral language skills, mathematics, and written expression in the low
average range with significant deficits in reading in the borderline to deficient range. According
to speech language evaluation, Elli demonstrates weaknesses in phonological awareness and
auditory cohesion, as well as in pragmatic skills.
2. The strengths of the student:
Math: is very good at adding and subtracting and has caught on well to the strategies she has
been taught.
3. The academic, developmental, and functional needs of the student:
Please refer to the Present Level of Academic and Functional Performance.
4. The concerns of the parent(s) for enhancing the education of his/her child:
Parents indicate concerns with reading skills and difficulty with frustration, attention, and
adaptive skills weaknesses.
These are the concerns reported by the parents. The listing of these concerns in the IEP does not
mean that the concerns are shared by the school division. To the extent the parent concerns are
shared by the school division, they have been addressed in the IEP.
5. The communication needs of the student:
Elli’s speech and receptive/expressive language skills are considered to be within the average
range.
6. The student’s need for benchmarks or short-term objectives:
Short-term objectives and benchmarks are not required.
7. Whether the student requires Assistive Technology devices and services:
The IEP team has determined that Elli does not require Assistive Technology supports and/or
services.
Page 2 of 10
EDUC 521
8. In the case of a student whose behavior impedes his/her learning or that of others,
consider the use of positive behavioral interventions, strategies, and supports to address that
behavior:
Elli does not display behaviors that have been determined to be related to her identified disability
that impact her learning or that of others.
9. In the case of a student with limited English proficiency, consider the language needs of the
student as those needs relate to the student’s IEP:
Elli is not a student with limited English proficiency.
10. In the case of a student who is blind or is visually impaired, provide for instruction in
Braille and the use of Braille, unless the IEP team determines after an evaluation of the student’s
reading and writing skills, needs, and appropriate reading and writing media, including an
evaluation of the student’s future needs for instruction in Braille or the use of Braille, that
instruction in Braille or the use of Braille is not appropriate for the student. When considering
that Braille is not appropriate for the child, the IEP team may use the Functional Vision and
Learning Media Assessment for Students who are Pre-Academic or Academic and Visually
Impaired in Grades K-12 (FVLMA) or similar instrument; and
Elli is not a student with a visual impairment.
11. In the case of a student who is deaf or hard of hearing, consider the student’s language and
communication needs, opportunities for direct communications with peers and professional
personnel in the student’s language and communication mode, academic level, and full range of
needs, including opportunities for direct instruction in the student’s language and communication
mode. The IEP team may use the Virginia Communication Plan when considering the student's
language and communication needs and supports that may be needed.
Elli is not deaf and is not a student with a hearing impairment
12. Extended School Year (ESY)
Elli’s IEP team determined that ESY services are not warranted.

Student Name__________________________________________________________
Date____/____/____ Page ___of___
The Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance summarizes the
results of assessments that identify the student’s interests, preferences, strengths, and areas of
need. It also describes the effect of the student’s disability on his/her involvement and progress
in the general education curriculum, and for preschool children, as appropriate, how the
disability affects the student’s participation in appropriate activities. This includes the student’s
performance and achievement in academic areas such as writing, reading, math, science, and
history/social sciences. It also includes the student’s performance in functional areas, such as
self-determination, social competence, communication, behavior, and personal management.
Test scores, if included, must be self-explanatory or an explanation must be included, and the
Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance must be written in
objective, measurable terms, to the extent possible. There must be a direct relationship among
the desired goals, the Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance, and
all other components of the IEP.

Student’s Strengths, Preferences, and Interests
Elli Smith is a 7.8 year old girl currently in the 2nd grade. Elli was found eligible for service for
Specific Learning Disability.
According to psychological evaluation, Elli demonstrates an overall ability in the average range.
She demonstrates substantially less well developed long-term retrieval associative memory and
auditory processing, specifically phonemic awareness. These relative weaknesses coupled with
difficulties in the aspect of auditory processing, such as phonemic awareness, which is the
understanding of the smallest units of sound (phonemes), might make the acquisition of reading
difficult. Also, the spelling of unfamiliar words might also prove to be a challenging task. Elli’s
social functioning, as assessed through rating scales, teacher interviews, and direct observation
appears to be a challenging area. According to achievement assessment, Elli demonstrates
average oral language skills, mathematics, and written expression in the low average range with
significant deficient range. Teacher reports indicate that Elli demonstrates an independent
reading level of pre primmer 1. Her auditory comprehension is very good, but her word attack is
very poor. She has received PALS remediation and Title I supports for reading for a period of 6
months and has made very minimal progress despite supplemental instruction interventions
targeting her identified areas of deficit.
Student’s Areas of Need (Deficits that Require Supports)
Elli’s areas of need resulting from her disability-related deficits include:
Decoding
Reading
Spelling
Written language

Teacher Educational Information
Reading instructional level (1st); independent level (Readiness); Elli’s comprehension is good as
long as it is tested orally. She can recall story elements and information when the story is read to
her. Her word attack skills are extremely limited. She knows sounds when they are isolated but
has difficulty putting the sounds together. Her retention of words (sight words) is very weak. She
is currently receiving Title 1 and Pals Remediation, but she has made very little growth.
Language instructional level (below grade level); she has memorized certain sentence structures
and adapts it to the current topic. Elli is an excellent speller, but she cannot read the words she is
spelling. She memorizes the spelling features. Math: She is very good at adding and subtracting
and has caught on well to the strategies she has been taught. She does a great job deciding which
operation should be used and then working out a word problem. Social Studies and Science: Elli
does very well in both classes. Movement Ed.: she follows directions and does all activities;
seems to get along with everyone during class and seems to enjoy PE; appears to love Art and
Library and works well with other students.

Services – Least Restrictive Environment – Placement
Least Restrictive Environment (LRE)
When discussing the least restrictive environment and placement options, the following must be
considered:
• To the maximum extent appropriate, the student is educated with children without disabilities.
• Special classes, separate schooling, or other removal of the student from the regular
educational environment occurs only when the nature or severity of the disability is such that
education in regular classes with the use of supplementary aids and services cannot be
achieved satisfactorily.
• The student’s placement should be as close as possible to the child’s home and unless the IEP
of the student with a disability requires some other arrangement, the student is educated in the
school that he/she would attend if he or she did not have a disability.
• In selecting the LRE, consideration is given to any potential harmful effect on the student or
on the quality of services that he/she needs.
• The student with a disability shall be served in a program with age-appropriate peers unless it
can be shown that for a particular student with a disability, the alternative placement is
appropriate as documented by the IEP.
