Case Study
Ava is a 40 month old who lives with mom, dad and
three older brothers. Ava’s mom is concerned about
her behavior problems; Ava throws temper tantrums
and screams when she gets frustrated. Ava can play
appropriately with a variety of different games and
toys, but will typically play alone. She looks at books
and can point to simple objects both spontaneously
and on request, sometimes saying the name of object
if she knows it. Ava has a hard time understanding
directions, but is able to imitate the actions of other
children once a direction is given. Formal
assessments indicated that Ava’s cognitive scores
were in the normal range. She uses mostly two-word
sentences often in repetition of what she was just
asked or what was said to her. She was not able to
repeat a full sentence presented orally by the
assessor. Ava demonstrated limited ability to name
objects in pictures.

Based upon classroom observations, formal and informal
assessment, Ava is a 40 month old girl who scores within
the normal range for cognitive function. Ava’s
understanding of verbal language appears to be reflective of
a typical peer of 6-18 months old – she has a hard time
understanding, which is demonstrated by her lack of
response to verbal instructions or directions. Currently, Ava
complies with age appropriate requests only 1 out of 5
opportunities.

Our Goal for this webinar was for
you to learn to:
- Write
a Present Level of Performance
utilizing the assessment data,
– Align goals and objectives with early
childhood educational standards, and
– Use the child indicators to write observable,
measurable goals in IEP development.
So what comes next?
Next steps…
• We’ve tried it, now you apply it.
• Anticipate a new curriculum
aligned with the Idaho Early Learning
e-guidelines.
