Document UseThis document has been designed to provide various mathassessments that will inform PLEPs (Present Levels ofEducational Performance) for the IEP writing process. ThePLEP should provide the foundation for the data-baseddecisions the IEP team is required to make with regard to astudent’s goals, supports, accommodations, modifications,and services for the next year. The PLEP also providesinformation for selecting appropriate interventions andsupports and services, including the least restrictiveenvironment (LRE).This document will assist the educator in choosingappropriate assessments to inform each PLEP (i.e., basicreading, reading fluency, and reading comprehension) andultimately inform aligned, deficit-based interventions in thearea of reading.Formatting Note:The notation “4:0-24:11” means 4 years 0 months through24 years 11 months.This document is provided for reference only.

Math Areas of DeficitMath areas of deficit include math calculation and mathproblem solving. Math calculation is the knowledge andretrieval of facts and the application of procedural knowledgein calculation. Math problem solving involves usingmathematical computation skills, language, reasoning,reading, and visual-spatial skills in solving problems; andapplying mathematical knowledge at the conceptual level.Many of the assessments included in this document includecomponents of both math calculation and math problemsolving. In many cases, the distinction between mathcalculation and math problem solving is determined by howthe skill is being used. For example, assessment of fractionoperations would fall under math calculation; however,assessment of fractions used in the context of measurementwould fall under math problem solving. Therefore, it is crucialthat school teams use a variety of assessment information,including diagnostic assessments, to determine the student’smost foundational skill deficit and intervene appropriately.Source: RTI2 Implementation Guide
