Trial-Based IEP Data Sheet

A free printable trial-by-trial data sheet for IEP goals written as a number of correct trials out of a total, with a column for prompt level. Type your goal in and the sheet fills itself, or print it blank.

Fill in your goals

The sheet fills in as you type. Initials only, never a name. Nothing is saved on our side: your goals travel inside the QR code printed on the sheet, so scanning it reopens this sheet for a fresh stack.

Prompt key: I = independent · V = verbal · G = gestural · M = model · PP = partial physical · FP = full physical

  1. Record the trials you actually ran, not the trials you planned. A session of 6 is data; a session you rounded up to 10 is not.
  2. Write the prompt level for the session as a whole, or the highest level of support you gave if it varied.
  3. Percentage is correct divided by total. Leave the math for later rather than doing it at the table.

Use this sheet when the goal reads like

  • “will identify the main idea in 8 out of 10 trials”
  • “will solve two-digit addition problems with 80% accuracy across 3 consecutive sessions”

Trial data is the most common way IEP goals are written and the easiest to distort. Two sessions of 4 trials each are not the same as one session of 8, so keep them on separate lines even when the total is the same.

Not sure this is the right method? Choosing a measurement type matches the verb in the goal to the sheet that fits.

Keep the sheets. Add the graph.

Log the same sessions in Evident and the graph draws itself: baseline, target, and the mastery line across the school year. No typing a stack of sheets into a spreadsheet in May.
