Question

Create an annual goal based on information provided

According to medical documentation from Jamie's physician, she has a severe form of epilepsy. Seizures have been observed to last within the range of two to ten seconds which cause fatigue and loss of balance.

Based on physical therapy observation, progress data and teacher input,

Jamie is wearing supra-malleolar orthotics for both feet. Jamie's overall stability with gait has improved. She is able to walk around the classroom without loss of balance 80% of the time. Jamie is able to step onto a curb using a handrail with an adult standing next to her for support as needed for safety or per adult's request 100% of the time. She is able to walk up and down 4 stairs with minimal (holding adult's hand while walking side by side) to moderate (holding adult's hands while walking behind or in front of her) assistance from adult. Jamie is able to transition from floor to stand and back independently 80% of the time. She demonstrates balance while sitting in a standard classroom chair for two minutes. A modified seat with tray is used to provide support and boundaries during work sessions. With regard to ball play, she is able to catch a gently tossed ball from 3 feet with 30% accuracy and return to target by tossing 10% of the time. She will kick a stationary ball approx. 20% of the time. Significant modeling and some physical assistance is necessary with most motor activities.

Jamie's performance in the areas of motor control, coordination, and balance affect her ability to independently perform preschool activities that require stability and bilateral activities without prompts.
