IEP Present Levels of Performance - What is your child able to do?

The PLOP statement outlines strengths such as learning style, specific academic skills, social skills, physical abilities, etc. that a child IS able to perform. Additionally, the PLOP statement gives information about struggles a child faces in these same areas.
 
The PLOP statement also provides a summary of the child's evaluation data including specific subtest performance levels. This objective data is critical for defining goals and objectives in the next section of the IEP.
 
Under the No Child Left Behind guidelines and state Standards of Learning criteria, it is advisable to include this information in a PLOP statement as well. State which standards the child has met and which ones he still needs to meet.

To fully grasp how to paint a positive picture of your child, get a piece of paper and a pencil. Think about a PLOP statement for yourself..

- Describe strengths which help you with classroom performance, including information on your personal learning style.

- Describe weaknesses including aspects of the classroom environment interfere with your learning and how your personal weaknesses affect your classroom performance.

- Write a paragraph stating ways in which your strengths can be used to overcome your weaknesses.

- Reflect on your statement and consider the importance of staying positive to inspire you to do your best. Consider how to write a positive statement like this for your child. Before writing this statement, move through the rest of the PLOP lesson. Then, by all means, write a PLOP statement for your child.
