I will create a goal for education and another for employment.

Also I will send the parent interview and padlet resources out to parents via paper copies that can be translated and email in a beginning of the year welcome packet. Hopefully this will give them time to fill out and submit well before ARD meetings.

]]> 2025-06-25 14:10:17 UTC https://padlet.com/jstover20/1dqrui0uwzt6wf24/wish/3501878276 https://padlet.com/jstover20/1dqrui0uwzt6wf24/wish/3501878710 I love the detailed information regarding transitional goals. This is new and exciting to me, thank you!


Since, I’ve never done transitional goals I’ll be sure to write them “in their voice.” I’ve done interviews with students before and made the mistake of not writing word for word. Good advice!

I want to start guiding them early to get them on track for secondary classes.

]]> 2025-06-25 14:12:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jstover20/1dqrui0uwzt6wf24/wish/3501879739 https://padlet.com/jstover20/1dqrui0uwzt6wf24/wish/3501882821 What to take back and do differently:

  • It’s never too early to start talking about future interests/plans

]]> 2025-06-25 15:06:08 UTC https://padlet.com/jstover20/1dqrui0uwzt6wf24/wish/3501925398 https://padlet.com/jstover20/1dqrui0uwzt6wf24/wish/3501925443 One idea that I will take back with me would be all of the resources that were provided!

One thing I will do differently when using my transition assessments would be to make them more accessible for my students/parents.

One thing I will do differently will be to utilize interest surveys to determine what their interests and skills are.

]]> 2025-06-25 15:06:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jstover20/1dqrui0uwzt6wf24/wish/3501925509 https://padlet.com/jstover20/1dqrui0uwzt6wf24/wish/3501926176 One new idea - I am taking all ideas from the presentations, using the sample writing for transitioning and cheat sheet packets.

One thing differently - There’s nothing I would do differently I will just make sure I am getting to know my students and plan for their futures.

One thing I’ll do differently, with my students heading to middle school, doing an interest assessment before they leave the elementary classroom.

1 thing different - make sure I double check student interests and career goals early in the year

One thing I will do differently is asking and preparing parents better for parent transition forms.
