RtII Response to Instruction and Intervention paTTAN
What is RtII? • Data driven process to improve reading and math instruction: • Standards aligned Instruction • Universal screening • Shared ownership • Data based decision making
PA Standards Aligned System (SAS): PDE - SAS
The instructional process mandates high quality instruction with a rigorous standards aligned curriculum for all students. In fact, our core classroom instruction should be meeting at least 80% of our students’ needs within the regular classroom. 5% of our students 5% - 15% of our students 80% - 85% of our students
Universal Screening: • All students are screened to determine academic status against grade-level benchmarks. • Fall, Winter, Spring • Comprehensive resource for curriculum based measurements 4Sight Study Island AimsWeb
Shared Ownership: • All staff (general education teachers, special education teachers, Title I, ESL) assume an active role in students’ assessment and instruction in the standards‐aligned-system • RtII is a regular education initiative NOT a special education initiative. • Parents are engaged – parents are informed of their child’s needs, interventions, intervention schedule, and progress. They may request additional evaluation at any time.
Remember – the RtII focus must be instruction: • Supports for RtII must be in place (tiers, time for staff learning, time for collaboration) • Data discussions must take place (data analysis teaming) • Professional Development must be on-site and job-embedded (coaching, capacity building, integration of Best Practices)
What does this mean for Wilson? • We will continue to assess district and building needs to ensure fidelity to the RtII process • Teams will be maintained or developed (as the case may be) and capacity for supporting the process will be increased • A dynamic menu of interventions will be generated and selection will be dependent upon data driven decisions – student needs • Schedules will be developed in support of the process not in conflict with it • A central resource of information will be developed and maintained in conjunction with continued professional development • All students will be engaged in high quality core instruction within the SAS framework
