October 1, 2026 · Ali, CCC-SLP
Crafting strong Present Levels statements is crucial for effective IEPs. Instead of vague descriptions, aim for specific, measurable details that truly reflect a student's current performance.
Weak example: "[Student] has difficulty with expressive language."
Stronger example: "[Student] independently produces 3-4 word utterances when describing familiar objects in structured tasks, but requires visual cues to formulate novel sentences exceeding 3 words."
