  2. What is Responsive Instruction (RI)? Responsive Instruction at Algonkian Includes: Universal Screening Instructional Intensity based on Student Needs High-Quality, Research-Based Instruction in the General Education Setting Ongoing Student Assessment

  3. Universal Screening Universal Screening is an assessment that identifies which students may be below, on, or above grade level. Universal Screening in combination with the DRA 2, PALS, and classroom data is used to identify students that are in need of additional academic support. Universal Screening is completed three times a year, Fall, Winter, and Spring Algonkian’s Universal Screening for Reading includes a test of oral reading fluency. Although Universal Screening provides useful data, it does not specifically identify all of a student’s strengths and weaknesses. However, it can be used to measure a student’s year long progress.

  4. Tiered Instruction • Instruction is based on each individual student’s needs. This occurs in three tiers: Tier 1: General Education Classroom Tier 2: A breakout small group session that focuses on the needs of the group. Lessons are between 15-30 minutes. Tier 3: Individual Instruction given to the students that require the most intensive support which is provided by a trained individual.

  5. High-Quality, Research-Based Instruction Tier 1 New to Algonkian for the 2013-2014 School Year, all students in 3rd-5th grade are receiving instruction using the Reading Workshop model. Students in 1st and 2nd grade are receiving instruction in the classroom following the county wide Pathway’s model. Tier 2 Students in 3rd-5th grade are pulled into small groups of 4 or less and instructed using the guided reading model. Leveled books are used to teach vocabulary and reading strategies. Tier 3 Individualized instruction is given based on the exact needs of the student.

  6. Ongoing Student Assessment Tier 1 All students participate in Universal Screening. Tier 2 32 Oral Reading Fluency assessments will be given throughout the school year to each student receiving some form of intervention. Tier 3 Twice weekly oral Reading Fluency Probes will be given throughout the school year. Student Data is provided for parents at the end of each quarter, but progress can be provided at request.
