What Do We Mean by
“Age-appropriate
Transition Assessment”?
![Page 9: Transition Planning: It’s All About What Your Child Wants to Do!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070401/56649f1e5503460f94c3692f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Purpose of Age Appropriate Transition Assessments
• To offer guidance/direction
• To create talking/exploring points
• To define areas of preferences, interests, strengths and needs
• To determine postsecondary goals, annual goals, accommodations, and transition services

How Will Your Child’s

The IEP for each child with a disability shall include:
1. A statement of the child's present levels of academic achievement and functional performance
– including how the child's disability affects the child's involvement and progress in the general curriculum
– disability affects the child's participation in appropriate activities.
(34 CFR 300.320(a)(1))
![Page 43: Transition Planning: It’s All About What Your Child Wants to Do!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070401/56649f1e5503460f94c3692f/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
The IEP for each child with a disability shall include:
– the statement shall be written in objective measurable terms, to the extent possible.
– test scores, if appropriate, shall be self-explanatory or an explanation shall be included.
– the present level of performance shall directly relate to the other components of the IEP.

transition assessments.
