I chose this quote because it speaks to the high degree of adaptations provided by MTSS. It signals that MTSS is a change that is comprehensive in reaching all students as well as supportive to teachers who would benefit from a structure that will meet students needs in the easiest way possible. This resonated with me because adapting teaching practices to meet the needs of every student can sometimes feel like an impossible task and having a comprehensive system which provides support to help teachers meet their students’ needs provides invaluable benefit to both teachers and students. MTSS offers a systematic change to all areas of teaching which means that students benefit from adaptations in all aspects rather than simply differentiated processes. This quote also speaks to how MTSS can be at be valuable being incorporated along with other systems that are less comprehensive such as Rtl2.

I found this quote particularly meaningful and fitting for this module's essential question of, "When should students adapt to the expectations of my practice and when should I adapt my practice and expectations to my students?" This quote specifically mentions which components of a student's education MTSS focuses on. As educators, our practice should reach each of those components of our students. I do not think educators and students adapting to a classroom's practices are two individual and separate things, but rather something that is and should be intertwined. We should be taking all these things we know about our students and how they succeed and use those as our framework. We can't expect our students to be the only ones adapting to our classrooms and practices. Our classrooms should be student-centered, individualized, and differentiated for all students' success.
