Functional Life Skills Checklist, IEP Goals & Intervention 6th–12th Grade Bundle
$18.00 $16.20
Get BundleFunctional skill expectations change significantly between middle and high school. Middle school students begin managing multiple classes, teachers, schedules, materials, and increasing personal responsibility. High school students must prepare for employment, community participation, postsecondary education, adult services, and independent or supported living.
The 6th-12th Grade Functional Life Skills Checklists, IEP Goals & Interventions Bundle includes two separate, age-appropriate resources:
Each resource helps educators identify functional skill strengths and needs, choose targeted interventions, and develop measurable goals. The high-school resource also includes separate Independent and Supported tracks to reflect different transition pathways and adult-support needs.
I created this bundle to help teams assess and teach functional life skills across the secondary years without relying on one checklist that is either too basic for high school or too advanced for younger students.
TWO DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE GRADE BANDS
The bundle includes:
6th–8th Grade Resource
The middle-school resource reflects increasing expectations related to managing multiple classes, following complex schedules, organizing materials, advocating for help, regulating emotions, completing personal responsibilities, and preparing for high school.
9th–12th Grade Resource
The high-school resource addresses functional skills connected to employability, daily living, self-advocacy, community access, postsecondary education, transition services, and adult independence.
The high-school version includes:
This structure allows teams to select checklist items, interventions, and goals that reflect the student’s grade band, current skills, and anticipated adult needs.
MOVE FROM A BROAD CONCERN TO A SPECIFIC SKILL
A student described as “not independent” or “not prepared for adulthood” may need support with one specific part of a larger task.
The student may need help:
These informal functional skills assessments separate broad concerns into specific, observable skills. Once the team identifies the skill needing support, the aligned interventions and sample goals provide a practical starting point for individualized instruction and transition planning.
WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE BUNDLE
This bundle includes:
The same 14 broad functional areas are addressed in both resources. The individual skills, interventions, and goals are adapted to match middle-school and high-school expectations.
FOURTEEN FUNCTIONAL LIFE SKILL AREAS
Each grade-band resource addresses:
These areas allow teams to consider the whole student rather than focusing only on academic performance or classroom behavior.
TARGETED FUNCTIONAL SKILLS INTERVENTIONS
Each checklist area includes interventions that can be selected and adapted based on the student’s identified needs, setting, and transition pathway.
Depending on the skill and grade band, interventions may include:
The interventions provide practical starting points rather than one plan for every student.
MEASURABLE FUNCTIONAL LIFE SKILLS IEP GOALS
The sample goals connect directly to the functional skills assessed. Educators can adjust the setting, prompting level, frequency, performance criteria, and expected level of independence to reflect the student’s baseline and future needs.
Goals may address:
Using aligned checklists, interventions, and goals helps teams explain why a goal was selected, what skill the student is developing, and how that skill connects to greater independence.

WHO THIS BUNDLE IS FOR
This bundle may be especially helpful for:
The two grade bands make this bundle especially useful for secondary programs, transition teams, and educators who support students with a wide range of developmental abilities.
IMPORTANT ASSESSMENT INFORMATION
These resources are informal educational assessment and planning tools. They are not standardized, norm-referenced, or diagnostic assessments. They do not replace a formal evaluation, functional behavior assessment, comprehensive transition assessment, or other individualized assessment when one is required.
The checklist items, interventions, and sample goals should be individualized according to the student’s needs, baseline performance, environment, transition pathway, and required level of support.
The purpose is not to hold every student to one definition of independence. It is to help the team identify meaningful next steps and plan instruction that supports participation, self-determination, and the greatest appropriate level of independence.
Important Note About Upgrading to the Bundle
If you have already purchased one or both individual checklists (K–2 or 3–5) and would like the full bundle, you can contact TPT for a reimbursement of the individual products so you only pay the bundle price.

High school functional skills directly affect a student’s ability to manage daily responsibilities, advocate for support, prepare for employment, navigate the community, and plan for life after graduation.
