7. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Year One Debrief Year One Progress looks like…. Data teams established Teachers more confident in their abilities Teachers know what data to bring to meetings Core reading and math programs are strengthened through professional development and collaboration Specific data used at each meeting Differentiated Instruction across all subject areas. Specific skill deficits are identified in students and across grade levels. Interventions are designed to close the gap of deficit.

8. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Let’s Take a Look at Behavior On a Post-It Note…. Record the 3 most prevalent behaviors that may need intervention support. Post to the Parking Lot

9. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Take a Closer Look at Data 9

10. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Is this an individual student problem or a larger systemic problem? adapted from: Heartland AEA 11, Improving Children’s Educational Results Are over 20% of students struggling? Are between 5% and 20% of Are 5% or fewer and develop group intervention Examine instruction, curriculum, and environment for needed adaptations Develop small group intervention Go to individual student problem solving Go to intervention evaluation students struggling? students struggling? What’s the Problem?

16. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org HOLDING EFFECTIVE DATA TEAM MEETINGS 16

17. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Teacher Data Team Members Administrator Instructional Coach(es): Elementary – –Grade Level Teams Guidance Counselor/Service Provider Function  Utilize the problem solving process to meet needs of students  Analyze data from Tier 1 and Tier 2 assessments to monitor the effectiveness of core instruction (Tier 1) and supplemental instruction (Tier 2) across the grade level or department  Monitor fidelity of core Tier 1 instruction

18. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Teacher Data Meetings Purpose Student Achievement Collaborate to plan interventions both at Tier 1 and Tier 2 level Monitor student progress –Making gains –Learning, but slowly –No progress Learn from each other 18

19. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Collaboration is the key to success!

20. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org What Data Do I Bring? Data that shows student’s response to instruction (Tier 1) Intervention Log documentation Progress Monitoring data— how did the student respond to interventions (Tier 1 or Tier2) 20

21. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Aids in the analysis of inadequate progress and how to intensify instruction. Documents progress for RTI model –Amount of time student received intervention –Size of group –Changes made to intensity –Refer for evaluation Why Keep an Intervention Log?

22. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Aids in the analysis of inadequate progress and how to intensify instruction. Documents progress for RTI model –Amount of time student received intervention –Size of group –Changes made to intensity –Refer for evaluation Interventions: Documenting Tier 1 and Tier 2

23. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Support decision making such as whether to Continue Change or Adjust instruction. What is the intent of progress monitoring?

24. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org Must match intervention/instruction Should be a quick tool Curriculum Based Measurement – Short, quick probes based on skills Examples: –Running records –Sight words 30/42 –FAIR opm –PASI –PSI –Math Probes Progress Monitoring Tool

25. Response to Intervention www.interventioncentral.org When Progress Monitoring shows intervention is not effective enough –Change intervention strategies –Add time to intervention strategies –Reduce size of intervention group –Change intervention instructor Modifications
