Improving the Upside-Down Response-to-Intervention Triangle with a Systematic, Effective Elementary School Reading Team
Abbott, Mary; Wills, Howard
Preventing School Failure, v56 n1 p37-46 2012
In today's educational environment, schools struggle to meet the academic needs of every student. Many schools are challenged by the use of a response-to-intervention framework in which too many students need strong interventions. This article details a data-driven, decision-making response-to-intervention reading team model in which teachers, staff, and administrators from a school actively take responsibility for and monitor the school's academic results to improve classroom and intervention instruction. (Contains 3 figures and 1 table.)
