The Process

1. Identify interventions already in place

2. Sort and classify the interventions from least intensive to most intensive

4. Brainstorm suggestions for additional interventions and potential resources

3. Identify sections of strength and weaknesses among existing interventions

Brainstorming Exercise

We’ve received reports that up to 20 percent of the current 9th graders are failing Algebra I, thus already endangering graduation in the new Michigan Merit Curriculum.

Using the powerpoint and the resources from the web, design a pyramid of interventions to address this problem.
