Tier 1 At the elementary level, in reading, the district's primary goal is to develop proficiency in the areas of reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Each instructional unit aligns with the Common Core Learning Standards. Students are assessed on their sight word acquisition, word knowledge, accuracy, fluency, and comprehension skills.

Tier 2 & Tier 3 If there are concerns regarding a child’s progress under the general education curriculum, students are given AIS services. Fidelity is conducted by the principal and assistant principal. These methods include reviewing student’s work sample, teacher’s log, and student’s data. "Walk-through" are also employed. Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions
This paper focuses on the Response to Intervention. As educators we are hearing RTI more frequently in the school districts than ever before. Many educators and state officials agree that all teachers should know and get to know the benefits and importance of RTI. The most crucial aspect to know is the RTI takes place into the regular childhood classroom; this is not something that just special education teachers need to know. This paper explains the purpose and a brief history of RTI. The paper offers ways that it is beneficial for school districts to implement this research based program. However, as in many systems there are always challenges, the paper briefly discusses some of the challenges that educators
How do reading specialist work with their district to choose assessments that align with curriculum to help inform instruction?
Identification: Truxton Academy Charter School acknowledges that all students have both strengths and weaknesses in their learning styles. We understand that students who begin to struggle academically need quality instruction and intervention strategies immediately. We know that early intervention at the kindergarten and 1st grade levels as well as early intervention in the academic year at all grade levels is very important for students’ long-term academic success. (Burns, M. K., Griffiths, A., Parson, L. B., Tilly, W. D., & VanDerHayden, A. (2007). Response to intervention: Research for practice.
Response to Intervention (RtI) is a framework based off the problem solving method that integrates assessment, and targeted instruction, within a multi-tiered intervention system. Implementation of RtI in schools is crucial to identify which students need additional intervention that will help increase their literacy skills, and prevent them from falling behind. RtI is based off multi-leveled tiers that are each categorized by the intensity of the intervention that is being used. The RtI framework is also used as a valued tool in monitoring and improving student behavior in the classroom through a model known as Positive Behavioral Intervention Support (PBIS).
Intervention Central is a free online resource for teachers and school districts to use for the implementation of intervention in or outside of the classroom while following the Common Core State Standards. Jim Wright, a psychologist and school administrator out of New York, created Intervention Central in hopes that the website would help offer high quality RTI in even the lowest budgeted schools. The website offers a wide variety of tools for teachers to use for academic and behavioral interventions as well as assessments and informative articles. Intervention Central also offers training videos and webinars on many different topics. The site breaks the intervention process activities down by subject and subject areas.
Some students require additional interventions or supports to ensure success in and out of the classroom. Tier 2 supports are provided to a small percentage of our students. This group of students may be support by small group work with our counselor. Another possible intervention that may be used at Tier 2 is Check In Check Out (CICO). A smaller amount of students requires Tier 3 supports. These supports are supported by the Grant Wood AEA and involve an extensive evaluation. Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions are always don with parent
During the 2012-2013. 2013-2014, and 2014-2015 school years, the Student passed the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness. After reviewing all of the evidence, it was finally concluded that the Student did not need to receive special education services. The argument the Students parents were making was that ECISD did not evaluate the Student for an IDEA disability. However, the Respondent’s evaluation and application was done in agreement with the IDEA. Evidence also showed that the Student did receive educational benefits from the school’s regular education
The purpose of Response to Intervention is early detection and identification of learning concerns of students and the development of an individualized plan that addresses the appropriate prescription for resolving the students’ academic or behavioral issue. In our twenty-first century learning communities, students are required to participate and are engaged in educational activities that may challenge their ability to grasp the concept in manners conducive to their learning styles. Schools are challenged to examine their methods of instruction to meet the needs of all children making them successful in all areas of academic content. “A quality school is a place where students learn to think and apply knowledge to new situations, where students are involved in and excited about their learning, where students make individual gains in process and knowledge, where adults know they care about individual students,
Reducing ED encounter for seniors 65 years or older is a major endeavor. This is a concern seen across the country and various interventions have been tried to resolve this issue. No one in intervention has been successful thus far. It is with this in mind, that a more collaborative approach was considered. Although individual measures showed some success, a combination of various intervention may prove to be successful. There will be several interventions implemented to reduce ED encounters for seniors.
EBIs to reduce disruptive behavior and increase academic achievement can include trainings and implementation support at the school, class-wide, and individual student-level, and are often either academic or behavioral in nature. Overall, implementation of both universal (i.e. class-wide) and targeted (i.e. student-level) interventions have demonstrated positive impacts on decreasing disruptive behaviors and increasing student academic achievement (Flower, McKenna, Bunuan, Muething, & Vega, 2014; Vannest, Davis, Davis, Mason, & Burke, 2010).Ross, Romer, and Horner (2012) also found that teachers in schools implementing Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports with high fidelity
The author states that the best way to set up an intervention plan for our clients is “to start with the client. Ask the client about what it is that he or she wants to work on” (Ward & Mama, 2006, 131). The author suggests that we may see the obvious things that the client wont and that we should see if it would be an interest for them to work on it as well. (Ward & Mama, 2006, 131) But that we should wait until the end of our meeting after the client has told us what they want to work on. After we have done out intervention plan the author explains that we need to take our plan to our supervisors and explain the client and the presenting issues and goals to them so that they have sense
The clinician will integrate multiple theories that will support a single group of researchers who conducted a case study that proposed the two theories with the purpose of obtaining the most current information regarding language difficulties, social communication difficulties, and the outcomes it provides when working with school-age children. The theories identified during this research were Biological Maturation and Social Interactionism. The clinician will further indicate the relationship between neuronal function in the process of language and the theory selected.
