What we are doing in our building to close the gap with struggling students?

I PLAN TO STUDY the RTI process in my building BECAUSE I WANT TO FIND OUT the district policy given from the administrators TO SHOW the stages of the RTI process that are implemented in this building SO THAT I MAY BETTER UNDERSTAND the sequence of the stages for our at risk students.

(M. Appelbaum, personal communication, 2009).

"It needs to be simplified so that everyone understands the process."

"Fluency is the ability to read a text accurately, smoothly, and quickly, with expression, proper phrasing, and good comprehension."

(R. Brown-Chidsey, No More "Waiting to Fail", 2009).

"Response to Intervention enables schools to identify the kinds of support struggling students need— and provide that support when it's needed."

"Fluency Formula™ is a supplemental curriculum designed to promote reading fluency for first- through sixth-grade students."

(IES Practice Guide, Assisting Students Struggling with Reading: Response to Intervention and Multi-Tier Intervention in the Primary Grades, 2009).

"Our goal is to provide evidence-based suggestions for implementing multi-tier interventions that are feasible and based on evidence from rigorous research."

(J. Wright, RTI Toolkit, 2007).

futuremagister — 2015-11-22 16:31:43 UTC

"To implement RTI effectively, schools must develop a specialized set of tools and competencies, including a structured format for problem-solving, knowledge of a range of scientifically based interventions that address common reasons for school failure, and the ability to use various methods of assessment to monitor student progress in academic and behavioral areas."

"When fluent readers read aloud, the text flows as if strung together like pearls on a necklace, rather than sounding halting and choppy."
