  9. Data-Driven vs. Data Informing • Is your school or district’s use of assessment data- driven? • Systematic process to analyses and make decisions about the data • Is your school or district’s use of assessment data informing? • Instruction and curriculum are based on students’ identified needs.

  13. Four Organizing Principles • Earlier rather than later -- Prevention and early intervention are supremely more effective and efficient than later intervention and remediation for ensuring reading success. • Schools, not just programs -- Prevention and early intervention must be anchored to the school as the host environment and primary context for improving student outcome • Evidence, not opinion -- Prevention and early intervention pedagogy, programs, instruction and materials should be based on trustworthy scientific evidence. • Each and All-- To teach all children to read, we must teach each child to read.

  14. Today… ask questions

  15. Questions and Answers

  16. Question 1: • What training will be required to ensure the proper implementation of RTI?

  17. Question 2: • How do we operationalize the expanding circle of support?

  18. Question 3: • How long should interventions be continued before an entitlement decision is made? or…. • Will use of RTI delay services to students?

  19. Question 4: • We have a big school system and many students needing PLPs, let alone other kinds of interventions - how do we handle so many kids being processed at the same time?

  20. Table Talk As you look to September what are your plans regarding implementation of RTI? As a table group, what question would you like to ask the group to get help on your implementation plans?

  21. Job-Alike Discussion • How is your job changing? • What benefits do you see? • What challenges are you experiencing? • In what area do you need professional development? • Are their any school/district/state policies that make this change difficult?

  22. Building Capacity:Beginning with a Goal in Mind Collaborative engagement includes: • Being data driven in an effort to help every student succeed • Making a commitment to do whatever it takes when they acquiring evidence that suggest particular students aren’t succeeding • Studying about and use best practice in their repertoire of daily teaching strategies • Examining curriculum, instruction and assessment across grade levels and subject areas to assure students’ continuous learning experiences. • Celebrating success • Learning from on another • Problem solving together • Engaging in learning about learning as a daily activity.
