For preschool-age children, the general education curriculum is defined as "appropriate activities." Appropriate activities include activities children of the same chronological age would engage in as part of a regular preschool curriculum or other informal activities. Examples of such activities would include social interactions with peers and adults, pre-reading and math activities, sharing time, independent play, and listening skills. This document is an attempt to provide a framework by which early childhood professionals can more easily develop meaningful and measurable IEP goals. Measurable annual goals set the direction for instruction in special education. They help families and teachers gauge a child's progress in the educational plan and assure that a steady flow of communication takes place.
