Response to Intervention (RTI) is grounded in the belief that ALL students can learn and achieve high standards when provided with effective teaching, research-based instruction, and access to a standards-based curriculum. A comprehensive system of tiered interventions is essential for addressing the full range of students academic and behavioral needs. This workshop will focus on Tiers 1, 2, & 3 in Math, Reading, and Behavior. Resources for each of the three tiers will be explored and discussed. School-based teams will have the opportunity to assess current practices and begin targeting resources and designing intervention strategies for Tiers 1, 2, & 3.
