Play is the "work" of preschoolers, as it helps them learn and helps them develop pre-skills that they will need to build on later as they start learning academic skills. For that reason, it's not uncommon for children to have play-related IEP goals especially in a preschool setting.
IEP goals relating to pre-academic / play skills:
1. Imitate functional play demonstrated by an adult using a variety of toys for their intended purpose in a variety of settings (housekeeping, blocks, transportation, etc.) with visual model or verbal prompt at least twice a day for 2 minutes.
2. Engage in functional play using a variety of toys for their intended purpose in a variety of settings with verbal prompt at least twice a day for 3 minutes.
