It is important to use progress monitoring tools to track student progress during remediation and intervention instruction. This data allows educators to see the effectiveness of the strategies being implemented and is used to make decisions on whether the instruction needs to change, fade, or continue. It is essential to collaborate and communicate with various stakeholders, including families.
Part 1: Collaborating to Make Intervention Decisions
Imagine you have been implementing interventions and progress monitoring students for the last nine weeks. The goals of the intervention are to increase students’ percentile rankings to 50. You are preparing to meet with the RTI team to review specific students’ intervention data to make instructional decisions.
Using the “2nd Grade Literacy Scores,” create a 200-250 word summary for each student to use at the RTI review meeting. Include the following in each student’s summary:
An initial summary and analysis of the progress monitoring data.
Two questions to consider about each student’s progress monitoring data.
Recommendations for instructional next steps (e.g., continue with intervention, change the intervention, or fade the current intervention), including an explanation of how the data supports the instructional recommendation.
If recommending that intervention be added or continued, identify one individual goal based on the assessment data and describe steps to progress monitor the individual goal.
If recommending that intervention be added or continued, describe the developmentally appropriate intervention strategy that will be used to support the student’s instructional goal.
Explain how the student will track their progress and take ownership of their learning throughout intervention instruction.
Part 2: Reflection
In 250-350 words reflect on the process of reviewing data and preparing to collaborate with a team to make intervention decisions. Include the following in your reflection:
Explain how you can use technology to communicate student intervention information and progress appropriately, legally, and ethically to all stakeholders.
Discuss how your intervention recommendations meet each child’s learning needs.
Support your assignment with 3-5 scholarly resources.
