Present levels that describe how the emotional/behavioral needs affect access; measurable goals (emotional regulation, coping strategies, social interaction, reducing interfering behaviors); related services (often school-based counseling, social work, or school-psychologist check-ins); a Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA) if behavior is a significant concern; a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) often built from the FBA; and accommodations (breaks, a calm-down space, modified assignments during high-stress periods, check-ins with a trusted adult).
The free IEP Review checks each service in the IEP for frequency, location, duration, and start date, and gives you the question to ask about anything missing. Your file never leaves your computer.
