MTSS for All: Including Students with the Most Significant Cognitive Disabilities

meeraraghu2 — 2025-03-05 06:38:37 UTC

All students, including students with the most significant cognitive disabilities, receive Tier 1 supports, some students will need Tier 2 supports in addition to those in Tier 1, and a few students will need Tier 3 supports in addition to Tiers 1 and 2. Although many students with the most significant disabilities will participate in all three tiers, this is not a given. No student should only receive Tier 3 supports. Doing so would ignore the other levels of instruction and intervention that provide a complete program for the student. It would also prevent the student from benefiting from the effectiveness of lower tier instruction and supports.

How can special education teachers and classroom teachers co teach based using the MTSS framework

meeraraghu2 — 2025-03-05 06:42:10 UTC

Collaborative teams determine how they will organize their instruction and interventions within classrooms, as well as any additional school-wide supports, if needed, for a small proportion of the students. The left-hand column of boxes represent academic standards-based instruction for all students, with the lower half of each box showing aligned supplementary strategies for students with significant cognitive disabilities.The intent of this framework is to align as much as possible with a school’s and classroom’s approach to academics to collaboratively provide a standards-based curriculum and instruction.
