I had the same problem with medicaid billing because I was reaching the goal, yet still doing the sound. I put in "until the sound emerges in conversation" to help with that. See below:

IEP GOALS FOR PHONOLOGY

Goals for parents you believe would understand about Cycles and be willing to do a home program. It requires a lot more explaining on your part at the meeting, but it will give the parents a good idea about what’s going on with their child and how they can help.

PLP: According to his evaluation, Chris presents with a moderate phonological delay. He uses the following phonological processes to simplify his speech: Cluster Reduction (clouds = couds), Stridency Deletion ( spoon = poon, fun = dun), (Velar Fronting gate = date and cot = tot) and (Liquid Simplification (rake = wake, lake = wake). His speech can be unintelligible and will make it hard for him to access the curriculum in the areas of reading and phonics.

More simplified PLP for parents that will probably not be participating in therapy or a home program:

PLP: Based on information observations during therapy, David's voice, hearing, fluency are within normal limits. David has a made a lot of progress in speech and he can produce most speech sounds, but has difficulty with /k/, /s/,s-blends, /r/ and /g/ in certain contexts. His speech is difficult to understand if the context is not known and this delay will affect his ability to access the regular curriculum in reading, writing, and spelling, as well as
communicating with his teachers and peers.

Annual Goal
Chris will produce / k, g, f, p, t, l, r/ in words and s-blends in words and carrier phrases for two sessions each Cycle at 90% accuracy until the sounds emerge in conversation.

STO
Chris will produce initial and final/k/ and intial /g/ in words with 90% accuracy until the sound begins to emerge in conversation.

Chris will produce initial and final /f/ in words with 90% accuracy until the sound begins to emerge in conversation.

Chris will produce final /p/ in words with 90% accuracy until the sound begins to emerge in conversation.

Chris will produce final /t/ in words with 90% accuracy until the sound begins to emerge in conversation.

Chris will produce initial /l, r/ in words with 90% accuracy until the sound begins to emerge in conversation.

Chris will produce /s-blends/ in words and carrier phrases with 90% accuracy until the sound begins to emerge in conversation.

Chris will produce all sounds in words, phrases, sentences, and reading with 90% accuracy.

Be sure to include that last STO in case you have to switch from Cycles to traditional artic mid-IEP. It will keep you from having to meet again!
