TASK 1

Response to Intervention (RTI) is a systematic pre‐referral assessment process used by teachers and other school‐based staff to ensure universal, targeted, and intensive individualized interventions are implemented prior to initiating the formal special education referral process. Teachers should understand the main characteristics and benefits of each tier in the RTI model. Teachers should also have knowledge and skills in recording and interpreting RTI assessment data to make data‐based decisions when planning instruction and individual student interventions.

Allocate at least 5 hours in the field to support the field experience.

Observe and collaborate with a certified K‐5 classroom teacher about pre‐referral assessments and his or her role in the RTI process.

The interview should address the following:

How each RTI tier is used in your classroom. What are the benefits of each tier?

How data is collected, and student progress monitored for RTI Tier 1, RTI Tier 2, and RTI Tier 3. Is technology used to assist in this progress monitoring? If so, how?

How data from RTI processes is analyzed to determine evidenced‐based interventions.

How RTI data is used in making eligibility, program, and placement decisions for students with disabilities in your classroom.

Strategies you use to communicate RTI results to various stakeholders.

Use any remaining field experience hours to assist the teacher in providing instruction and support to the class. With approval from your mentor teacher, observe RTI models used in other grade level classes in the school.

In 250‐500 words, summarize and reflect upon your observations and collaboration, and explain how you will use your findings in your future professional practice. Reflect upon using data to inform instruction and strategy selection to support struggling students and how you will use this information in your future professional practice.

TASK2

RTI requires progress monitoring to occur on a consistent basis to gauge the relevance and success of universal, targeted, and intensive individualized interventions being implemented. Data analysis allows teachers to make relevant decisions about individual students and advocate for new or continued placement on the RTI continuum.

Review the “Analyzing Student Data: RTI Model Student Progress Monitoring Scenario” to inform the assignment.

In a 500‐750 word analysis, complete the following:

Summary of overall student progress.

Interpret the data to determine whether Janet is responding adequately to Tier 2 instruction.

Why you think the support team members disagree about what tier of instruction would best meet Janet’s needs. Rationalize your answer.

Tier of instruction you would recommend for Janet: Tier 1 instruction only, another round of Tier 2 instruction, or intensive Tier 3 instruction? Explain your answer.

Support your analysis with 2‐3 scholarly resources.
