Moving Math into the Intervention Mix • Josh Fields Seward Public Schools • Brittany Hajek Seward Public Schools • Lenny VerMaas ESU #6 • http://lvermaas.wikispaces.com/Math+RTI
The Questions Who What When • Student • Teacher
Where are you at on the train track? • My school or district is systematically delivering math interventions using data. • 10- We have been on track and are traveling at high rate of speed. • 5- Some of us are on the train while others are still at the train station. • 1- I am still trying to buy a ticket on the train.
Fold Up • What are you currently doing or where would you like to go in the area of math interventions?
Where do we need to go? • Awareness • PLC • Data rich information poor • What was our thresh-hold?
All aboard • How do you get buy in? • Obstacles? • Time-Frame • Creating the “track” for the train to follow
Where do we go from here? • Identified struggling math students • Needed more diagnostic math data • When would these students get support • Follow the RTI model
What do we need to get the train moving? • Logistics • Tier II intervention- Scripted • Teacher training in the intervention • Who is going to deliver • When is it going to be delivered • Progress monitoring
Stops along the way • Parent communication • Fidelity checklist • Movement within STAMS and CAMS • 7th grade differentiated math classes • Resistance along the way • Student Goal setting
Two trains headed on parallel tracks to the same destination • Elementary-Middle vs. High School • Course offerings • Research of other schools • PLC • Intervention vs. support curriculum
Results • Turn to a neighbor- How do would you determine success? • First year- NeSA math • Fall-winter diagnostic • NWEA • Improvement from teacher comments
We are still headed down the track • We have to work on earlier intervention • Tier III Math • Raising the bar • Implementation of math supports at the high school.
