The results of the TERA 3 show that Ethan is either at or above average in the categories of
alphabet, conventions, and meaning for his age. Not only was Ethan able to answer the questions
asked, but he also went as far as to tell me the answers on the page that I didnt ask him. For
example, if asked what letter is this? Ethan was able to say A! And this is D, and E, and H as
well.

Communication Plan for Sharing Results with Parents, Teachers, Other Professionals, and
the Student (if appropriate)
To communicate the conclusion I have come up with to Ethans parents and teacher, I
would send them an email of the report in its entirety in case they want to read the entire report. I
would also attach a brief but thorough summary of everything I did as well as how, why, and
what conclusions, including the recommendations and goals, that I have come up with.
