  3. Session Outcomes Participants will: • Review the RtII Structure • Review ICLE’s Philosophy • Explore how RtII uses data to drive decisions • Gain strategies for various content areas

  4. Agenda Welcome/Overview Setting the Focus Data and RtII What are the 3 R’s? Writing Strategies RtII Tier I Instructional Strategies Reading and Math Strategies Vocab. Strategies Our Model of RtII Introduction to RtII

  5. ICLE’s Philosophy For All Students

  6. RTI Defined “RTI is the practice of providing high quality instruction matched to students needs and using rate of learning over time to make important educational decisions.” National Association of State Directors of Special Education (2005).

  7. NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION

  8. How does this relate to RTI?

  9. System Prior to Change Special Education Sea of Ineligibility General Education

  10. Changing Special Education: 1990s...Bridging the Gap Special Education Interventions General Education

  11. “If you teach the same curriculum, to all students, at the same time, at the same rate, using the same materials, with the same instructional methods, with the same expectations for performance and grade on a curve you have fertile ground for growing special education.” Gary Germann, 2003

  12. First things First…RtII is Informed by Data

  13. How Data is Used PG Page X Data collected Who has access How it is used Administrators, Teachers, Parents To determine areas of strength and areas of improvements State Test Scores What data do your school currently collect? Who has access to these data and how are they used?

  14. Activating Data to Move Forward Writing Prompts Sixth grade English Learners (boys - 25% gap) Focus on academic vocabulary and language structure practice

  15. What RtII’s Model Looks Like…

  16. PG Page X What Is Tiered Instruction? Tier III: For 5 to 7 percent of students, personalized, higher intensity and longer enduring intervention are required. Tier II: For 15 percent of students, achievement and behavior challenges are overcome successfully in an environment of explicit and intensive instruction.  Tier I: All students start here, progressing through a core curriculum.

  17. RTI: A Data-Based Process ProblemIdentification ProblemAnalysis Intervention Evaluation

  18. Positive Academic Supports Blueprint General Education With Consultation With Intervention Effective Instruction Modification Remediation Accommodations Interventions Assistive Supports Compensation Project Achieve 2007

  19. Designing School-Wide Systems for Student Success Academic Systems Behavioral Systems • Intensive, Individual Interventions • Individual Students • Assessment-based • High Intensity • Intensive, Individual Interventions • Individual Students • Assessment-based • Intense, durable procedures • Targeted Group Interventions • Some students (at-risk) • High efficiency • Rapid response • Targeted Group Interventions • Some students (at-risk) • High efficiency • Rapid response • Universal Interventions • All students • Preventive, proactive • Universal Interventions • All settings, all students • Preventive, proactive 1-5% 1-5% 5-10% 5-10% 80-90% 80-90%

  20. Philadelphia School District RtII Model Attendance Behavioral Health ~85% of students Level 1 ~10 % of Students Level 2 ~5% of Students Level 3 Small Group/Individual Discipline Small Group Literacy Whole Class

  21. Vocabulary Intervention Must Incorporate: • Integration – connecting new vocabulary to prior knowledge • Repetition – must use the concepts many times • Meaningful – vocabulary must be used in an organic way

  22. Vocabulary Strategies Frontloading – modified KWL S.T.A.R. Scattergories Pictionary

  23. Reading Comprehension Strategies Read and Think Alouds Graphic Organizers Structured Note Taking Reciprocal Teaching

  24. Writing Strategies Show Don’t Tell Sentence Starters Guided Writing

  25. Math Strategies CRA: Concrete – Representational - Abstract Math Manipulatives Acronyms Language Rich Classroom

  26. More on CRA Concrete Representational Abstract (CRA) is a three step instructional approach that has been found to be highly effective in teaching math concepts.   - The first step is called the concrete stage.  It is known as the “doing” stage and involves physically manipulating objects to solve a math problem.   - The representational (semi-concrete) stage is the next step.  It is known as the “seeing” stage and involves using images to represent objects to solve a math problem.   - The final step in this approach is called the abstract stage.  It is known as the “symbolic” stage and involves using only numbers and symbols to solve a math problem.  CRA is a gradual systematic approach.  

  27. Case Study

  28. Reflections: • 3 points I want to remember about RtII Tier One Strategies… • 3 questions that I still need answered… • The next 3 steps I should take to implement RtII with my students…
