  1. Response to Intervention By Kristy Shinaver

  2. What is Response to Intervention (RtI)? • A multi-tiered method of service delivery in which all students are provided an appropriate level of evidence-based instruction based on their academic needs • Involves frequent assessment of students’ progress, data-based decision making, and placement of students within a range of instructional supports

  3. What do we need to be able to implement a Response to Intervention model? • Assessment system that includes periodic universal screening and frequent/continuous progress monitoring • Instructional system that includes scientifically supported core curriculum and scientifically supported Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions • Data management and decision making system that includes methods for organizing data and a “play book” for making decisions

  4. Examples of Assessment Systems used for RTI • DIBELS: Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills • AIMSweb

  5. Tier 1 – All StudentsHigh Quality Standards – Aligned Curriculum and Instruction • High quality differentiated instruction • Scientifically-based Reading and Math instruction (NCLB requirement) • Proactive assessment practices (universal screening) for early identification of students needing more intensive instruction and intervention to accelerate progress Information from ODE

  6. Tier 2 – Targeted/Supplemental Intervention for some students(about 10 – 15 % of students) Supplemental interventions that are data-driven, research-based and automatically provided Interventions delivered through flexible scheduling, and flexible use of resources Regular monitoring of student progress Information from ODE

  7. Tier 3 – Individualized Intensive Interventions for a Few Students(about 1 – 5 % of students) • Individualized interventions for the most severe academic problems • Very frequent progress monitoring • Use of data gathered through targeted and intensive interventions can be used to determine eligibility for special education and the ongoing provision of these interventions within special education if a student is determined to be a student with a disability Information from ODE

  8. Why RTI? • An emphasis on early intervention and prevention --It is more effective to identify and intervene with student needs earlier than to remediate later • Eliminates poor instructional quality as an explanation for learning problems (curriculum/content – not necessarily the teacher)

  9. Effects of RTI: Growing the Green • Strengthen core instruction • Improves prevention efforts • Decreases the number of students needing intensive intervention

  10. RTI is a Framework – Not a Program • It brings together general, special, compensatory, and gifted education with the goal of providing a system of education that meets the needs of all students

  11. It is also not a special education initiative • However, the data gathered during the RTI process can also be used as part of a comprehensive evaluation to determine if a student has a specific learning disability

  12. How RTI will be implemented in Swanton • Tier 1: all students will receive core curriculum (Haughton-Mifflin) and DIBELS ORF assessment 3 times each year • Tier 2: yellow zone students will receive core curriculum and Read Naturally plus progress monitoring • Tier 3: red zone students will receive core curriculum, diagnostic testing to determine what targeted interventions are needed, and weekly progress monitoring to see if intervention should continue or be altered
