Student data is used to inform decisions about: • Providing quality core instruction • Planning & implementing supplemental instructional strategies • Designing tiered intervention for students at risk • Examining students’ responses to instruction and intervention

  3. Initial GDM Preparation… Before the team meets: • Disseminate data to team members • Include raw data & visual displays • User-friendly format • Members review data in advance • Leader prepares agenda • Think about what intervention may look like

  4. GDM Logistics • Teams should include: principal, EIS, grade level & spec. ed. teachers, intervention staff, school psych. • Should occur during regularly scheduled CT time, within GDM window. • CT norms apply, though agenda is common across district

  5. Initial GDM Focus is on goal setting & planning Performance data Class/Grade Level Problems and/or Student assignment to tiers Follow Up GDMs Focus on evaluation and fine tuning Growth data Student movement between tiers GDM: Initial versus Follow-Up

  6. Initial GDM Agenda Agenda includes the following discussion areas: • Rationale & Expectations • Tier 1 Analysis • Tiers 2 & 3 Analysis

  10. Intervention Preparation…. Intervention Considerations Based on Initial Data Analysis: • All students targeted for intervention must receive a comprehensive, research-based intervention from district menu • four days per week, 20 min. per day, in addition to the core curriculum • Interventions are delivered in a small group format (4 to 8) • Interventions must be delivered with fidelity • Personnel need to be trained to deliver/facilitate intervention. • Delivery method may be in the classroom or “pull-out” • Pull-out interventions must be delivered in an appropriate space.

  11. Skill-Based Intervention • Understand the 5 Big Ideas of Reading • Understand which skills will need to be addressed, by grade level • Target one specific reading skill at a time • Identify what program will address each skill • Ensure student need matches intervention Phonics Need - Phonics Intervention – Phonics Progress Monitoring
