Essential Principles of RtI:

Universal Screening, early identification Intensive, research-based interventions Progress Monitoring, data based

documentation Fidelity of Intervention Progression of Tiers of Intervention

Page 4: Power Up! Meeting the Needs of Students and  RtI

Research principles from Richard Allington’s What Really Matters in Response to Intervention

Reading volume and stamina Reader to Text match Very small intervention groups with expert

teacher Double dose of reading volume and

instruction Early intervention Best practice in the classroom at Tier One Support for ALL struggling readers

Page 5: Power Up! Meeting the Needs of Students and  RtI

Critical Questions: How will we increase the reading volume in

our classrooms? How will we provide the volume of

independent level texts for our struggling readers to increase their volume?

How will we meet the needs of all of our readers who need a double dose?

How will we provide a double dose for our special education students?

Page 6: Power Up! Meeting the Needs of Students and  RtI

Important Decisions: Where do we start?

Begin with Tier One: classroom instruction. Improving our knowledge and

implementation of best practice in reading instruction.

Create a data wall that provides information and opportunities for critical conversations.

Find a way to use current resources and time to provide intervention and support for all students.

Page 7: Power Up! Meeting the Needs of Students and  RtI

Greenland’s “Power Up” Research of the Intervention Block Looking at changes to the building schedule Creating opportunities for critical

conversations and building a PLC Using the data wall to make critical choices

about where to implement Power Up Building a staff commitment to Power Up

Page 8: Power Up! Meeting the Needs of Students and  RtI

The Challenge Continues… Finding opportunities for continued staff

development. Finding resources in both people and

materials without additional funding. Making difficult choices regarding the

number of students who receive intervention.

Finding a way to move intervention beyond reading.

Page 9: Power Up! Meeting the Needs of Students and  RtI

One of our main conclusions:The Importance of Effective Teachers and Teaching in Intervention

“No school with mediocre classroom instruction ever became effective just by adding a high quality remedial or resource room program. We have added more instructional aides, more specialist teachers, and more computers and software programs, while ignoring powerful evidence on the importance of high quality classroom teaching.”

Allington & Johnston, 2000; Bembry, et. al., 1998; Ferguson, 1991; Pressley, et. al., 2000

When will this take place? Scheduling concerns (nightmare)

One half hour block of time 3, 4 or 5 times a week

IMPORTANTPlan from the very beginning.What are you willing to move around?What are you willing to give up?

Page 28: Power Up! Meeting the Needs of Students and  RtI

Where?

What areas in your building are available for small groups and large groups?

Page 29: Power Up! Meeting the Needs of Students and  RtI

What?

Decide what’s the best instruction to meet the needs of your individual group.

Page 30: Power Up! Meeting the Needs of Students and  RtI

Student’s needs before Power Up Power Up—double dose Planned instruction—Extension of Reader’s Workshop Changes Successes… Increases in:

• Reading Volume • Stamina • Confidence • Less Stigma • Reading behavior and motivation • Students see themselves and others as readers

Collect Data– Decide what information we needed.

Provide enough information in an easy to read manner.

Structure of graphs ◦ Include all students

Easy to follow the progress of any student over time.
