Starting point for RtI
Do I believe ALL children can learn?
Do I believe performance targets on the PSSA will be met by 2014?
Can I change my current instructional practice to impact student performance?
![Page 5: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Underlying Principles of RtI
RtI is a general education initiative Improving the effectiveness of core instruction is
basic to the process No Child Left Behind really means NO Assessment data should both inform and
evaluate the impact of instruction Beliefs must be supported by research How do you spell AYP??? RtI
![Page 6: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Key Features
Effective instructional / intervention programs Frequent assessment of student performance
Screening (Benchmark) Diagnostic Progress Monitoring (formative) Outcome (summative)
Use of data to make instructional / intervention decisions

Why Screen??
First graders in the bottom quartile in reading have an 88% likelihood of placing in the bottom quartile in 4th grade and a 78% likelihood of remaining there through 8th grade.
Juel 1988
![Page 8: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Why Screen??
When students are tracked (homogenously grouped), the ability gap widens more than when students are not tracked (heterogeneously grouped).
Davenport & Ruiz (1993)

The Scope of the ProblemThe Scope of the Problem of U.S. fourth-grade students read below a “basic level” and have “little or no mastery of the knowledge or skills necessary to perform work at each grade level” (NAEP)
Problems are particularly severe for disadvantaged students (50% of 4th grade students whose parents graduated from college were proficient / advanced compared to only of 4th graders whose parents did not finish high school).

RtII is an early intervening strategy and carries dual meaning in Pennsylvania.
•It is a comprehensive, multi-tiered, standards aligned strategy to enable early identification and intervention for students at academic or behavioral risk. •RtII may be considered as one alternative to the aptitude-achievement discrepancy model for the identification of students with learning disabilities after the establishment of specific progress measures.

RtI Paradigm Shift
The concept is simple…
the implementation is challenging. RtI requires that we rethink how and why we do what we do.

IDEA 2004: Specific Learning Disabilities
“The LEA shall not be required to take into consideration whether the child has a severe discrepancy between achievement and intellectual ability in oral expression, listening comprehension, written expression, basic reading skill, reading comprehension, reading fluency, mathematical calculation, or mathematical reasoning.”
![Page 19: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

IDEA 2004 Specific Learning Disabilities
“In determining whether a child has a specific learning disability, a local educational agency may use a process which determines if a child responds to scientifically research- based interventions.”
![Page 20: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
IDEA 2004 Specific Learning Disabilities
A child is not a child with a disability if the presenting problem is caused by:
Lack of instruction in reading – including in the essential components of reading instruction
Lack of instruction in math Limited English proficiency
![Page 21: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

14.125 Criteria for Determining Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD)
Each school district and IU must develop procedures for determination of SLD that conform to State criteria
Procedures must be included in special education plans
§14.125(a), §711.25 (a)
![Page 22: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Per Sections 14.122 & 14.125…
All children are required to have ‘scientifically- based instruction’ in core academic subjects
All children must be screened at reasonable intervals
Children referred to MDT for SLD must receive repeated assessments

*The most crucial work of RtI implementation is ensuring quality teaching in the standards aligned general education core curriculum.

RtI: Universal Screening
![Page 28: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
Why Universal Screeners?
Early Intervening-actively seek out students at risk of difficulty and intervene immediately prior to long term failure and the need for intensive supports.
OR Wait for long-term failure greatly
increasing the need for intensive interventions including special education.
![Page 29: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Universal Screening Expectations Screenings conducted on all students three times per
year
School maintains results of screening in a database
School produces user-friendly summaries of screening data: A graph is completed to display data for analysis and decision-
making and to indicate percentage of students at-risk, at some risk, and at low risk
![Page 31: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Characteristics of a Quality Screening Instrument
Must be brief and easily administered. Must be research-based Must be highly correlated to skills assessed Must have benchmarks or be predictive of
future performance Must have high reliability and validity. Must be sensitive to small increments of
change

Reading – A National Priority
How many students in your school or district are identified as learning disabled in reading?
How are those students identified? Are you satisfied with your school or
district’s achievement in reading, spelling, writing, and/or language?
![Page 34: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
The reality is…
80-85% of children referred to special education have learning disabilities involving reading and /or language.
70-80% or poor readers have trouble with accurate and fluent word recognition in combination with fluency and comprehension problems.
Potential reading problems can be identified as early as mid-kindergarten and possibly earlier!
![Page 35: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
The Research Is Clear
Only 2-5% of our struggling readers should experience severe reading difficulties.
90-95% of our students can become successful readers.
![Page 36: RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION A STANDARDS-ALIGNED APPROACH TO STUDENT SUCCESS!](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56814bf4550346895db8e52d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
36
We can prevent the achievement gap!
We can prevent many children with reading deficits from becoming reading disabled!

REMEMBER:
WITHOUT DATA…
ALL YOU HAVE IS AN OPINION!!!
Screening data, while brief, is authentic, timely, and your first indicator of difficulty with your school, class, or student.
