The PST set a reasonable but ambitious goal for Marie to improve her writing by 1 WSC per
week on the Picture-Word task, or 22 WSC by the end of the year. Mr. Wright plotted this

Maries data points fell below the goal line, the PST followed the same brief, hypothesistesting procedure described earlier to make an instructional change, and determined that a
timed fluency-building component to Maries practice sessions would likely improve her
progress. Marie continued to make progress, but continued to fall below the goal line.
Again, the PST followed the hypothesis testing procedure. This time, Marie responded well
to daily goal-setting
goal setting during the fluency-building
fluency building activity and receiving incentives for meeting
daily goals. After this addition, Marie made steady progress, and by the end of the year,
