What is RtI?

Response to Intervention (RtI) integrates assessment and intervention within a school-wide, multi-level prevention system to maximize student achievement and reduce behavior problems.

~ National Center on Response to Intervention

Page 4: Response to Intervention: School-Wide Multi-Level Prevention Carriage Crest Elementary

Core Characteristics of RtI• Universal screening: All students are screened to

determine academic and behavior status against grade-level benchmarks

• • Standards-aligned instruction: All students receive high quality, research-based instruction in the general education standards-aligned system

• • All staff (general education teachers, special education teachers, Title I, ESL) assume an active role in students’ assessment and instruction in the standards-aligned system

• • Multi-Leveled Intervention: Students receive increasing intense levels of targeted scientifically, research-based interventions dependent upon student need

Page 5: Response to Intervention: School-Wide Multi-Level Prevention Carriage Crest Elementary

Core Characteristics of RtI (contin.)

• • Research-based Interventions: Implementation of research-validated interventions based on level of need

• • Progress Monitoring: Continuous progress monitoring of student performance and use of progress monitoring data to determine intervention effectiveness and drive instructional adjustments, and to identify/measure student progress toward instructional and grade-level goals

• • Benchmark and Outcome Assessment: Student progress is benchmarked throughout the year to determine level of progress toward monitoring and assessing the fidelity of intervention implementation

• Universal Screening• Progress Monitoring• School-Wide Multi-Leveled

Prevention System• Data-Based Decision-Making

RtI Is . . .

• A general education led effort implemented within the general education system, coordinated with all other services including special education, Title I, ESL, Migrant Education, etc.

• A system to provide instructional intervention immediately upon student need

• An alternative approach to the diagnosis of a Specific Learning Disability. Instead of using the well-known discrepancy model, local education agencies may now use this diagnostic alternative

• A process that determines if the child responds to scientific, research-based intervention as a part of the evaluation procedures

RtI Is Not . . .

RTI

• A pre-referral system • An individual teacher • A classroom • A special education program • An added period of reading instruction • A separate, stand-alone initiative

Page 9: Response to Intervention: School-Wide Multi-Level Prevention Carriage Crest Elementary

RtI

• RtI requires the re-engineering of general, remedial, and special education resources to create a seamless service delivery system to better meet the needs of all students

• RtI does not prevent referral for special education evaluation

School-Wide Multi-Level Prevention System

Levels of Intervention

Tertiary Level

Primary Level

Secondary Level

A School-Wide Multi-Level Prevention System is one of the components of Response to Intervention (RtI)

Page 11: Response to Intervention: School-Wide Multi-Level Prevention Carriage Crest Elementary

A School-Wide M-LPS Is . . .• 3 Levels• Primary (Formerly, Tier 1) • Secondary (Formerly, Tier 2)• Tertiary (Formerly, Tier 3)

• A focus is on ALL students• Instruction includes the district curriculum and instructional practices that are research-based; aligned with state or district standards; incorporate differentiated instruction; planned/implemented w/ fidelity, capacity, intention, and rigor• Takes place in the General Ed. Classroom• Assessments include screening, continuous progress monitoring, and outcome measures

Page 12: Response to Intervention: School-Wide Multi-Level Prevention Carriage Crest Elementary

A School-Wide M-LPS Is Not . . .• “Take my low kids”• Student pull out• Done on the fly• Taking place in a special education

classroom• The responsibility of the Special

Education teacher• Part of a Special Education

Initiative• Just for some students

Intervention vs. Accommodation

Intervention• Multi-Level Prevention

System• Instruction• Duration• Frequency• Progress-Monitoring• Fluid, not finite groups• Small group instruction• Evidence-based resources• Screening• Data-Driven Decision-

Making

Accommodation• Seating preference• Extra time for tests• Scribe• Chunking assignments• Peer helper• Repeated directions• Redirection to task• Frequent breaks during

testing• Teacher proximity to

student during instruction
