Why Your Struggling Students Aren't Catching Up—Even With Extra HelpIn this episode, we take a closer look at MTSS—Multi-Tiered System of Supports—through the lens of mathematics. While many schools have a clearer vision of what MTSS looks like in literacy, applying the same structure in math can be more complex. We unpack what Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 supports mean in a math context, examine the differences between math and literacy intervention models, and explore what current research says about effective practices. From the importance of strong core instruction to the challenges of designing meaningful interventions, we explore how educators can build a math support system that truly works for all students.Key Takeaways:understand how each tier of MTSS translates to the math classroom.reflect on the differences between math and literacy interventions and why a one-size-fits-all approach doesn't work.learn what research recommends for effective math support at each tier.recognize the importance of strong Tier 1 instruction as the foundation for all students.leave with practical considerations for designing responsive, aligned math interventions that go beyond pull-out support.Not sure what matters most when designing math improvement plans?

IS RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION (RTii) or the MULTI SYSTEM OF SUPPORT....FAKE NEWS?How do schools deal with students who are not making progress?What happens in Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier  3 interventions?Why should parents and teachers know about this approach to teaching?In 2004, Congress passed the Individuals withDisabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEA). This is special education law. When students struggle with learning, they are “at risk.” With additional help or intervention, many can catch up.In schools using RTI, teachers provide intervention as soon as students show signs of having difficulties. They do not wait for students to fail.Intervention is a special instruction to help students close gaps in learning.Faith Borkowsky, Judy Boksner, and Mary McCool Berry share their strong opinions in a boiling hot episode!

In this episode, Dr. Karen Gazith discusses five misconceptions of RtI. Dr. Gazith's latest book is Teaching With Purpose: How to Thoughtfully Implement Evidence-Based Practices in Your Classroom https://amzn.to/3wrje65 published by Solution Tree in November 2020. ===Dr. Karen Gazith received her Ph.D. from McGill University in the Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology and is currently a faculty lecturer in the Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology where she has taught since 1993. She also serves as the Dean of Academics at a K-11 school in Montreal, Quebec.  She has also served as the coordinator of special education in an elementary and high school and as the director of education for a consortium of schools in Montreal. In addition, Dr. Gazith has taught at Hebrew College in Boston and at the University of New Brunswick. Dr. Gazith holds a strong belief that teachers play a critical role in the success of their students, and she has presented worldwide on topics related to developing key competencies in leadership, inclusive education, evidence-based practices, and assessment and instruction. In her latest book, Teaching With Purpose, Karen introduces seven proven principles that assist teachers in creating a classroom environment conducive to learning for every student. These seven principles construct a robust picture of what the classroom can and should be: a safe place of learning and growth.===YouTube:INCLUSIVE EDUCATION S1E8: https://youtu.be/lTEGXQnzIbwTEACHING WITH PURPOSE S1E29; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgPvwTXhdsE&t=344s====APPLE PODCAST:TEACHING WITH PURPOSE S1E29; https://podcasts.apple.com/ch/podcast/whyknowledgematters/id1566175615?i=1000546611915====BOOKS by Karen Gazith:Teaching with Purpose: How to Thoughtfully Implement Evidence-Based Practices in Your Classroom The Mindful and Purposeful Teacher: Research-Informed Practice for Every Student in Every Classroom

Navigating the special education eligibility process is confusing for all parties involved (parents, professionals, etc.). That's why I wanted to get some insight from someone who understands the process inside and out. In episode 57 of Are they 18 yet?® I interviewed my colleague Jil Stauter, a school psychologist who has worked with students from preschool all the way through high school. I was fortunate enough to work on a team with her for a number of these years.In this in-depth interview, Jil and I deconstruct the process of determining if students are eligible for special education services under the label of “specific learning disability”.She also shares some essential advice for anyone who aspires to work in the school systems and be a part of the special education process.Here's a breakdown of what we cover in the interview:✅What types of data a school psychologist needs in order to determine if a student is eligible for services under the category of “specific learning disability” using the RtI process.✅What confuses people most about special education services in the schools (as it relates to learning disabilities and other diagnoses).✅What happens if a school IEP team disagrees with the recommendations of an outside evaluation.✅Plus more about the ins and outs of eligibility for services in the schools, and how special ed teams can work together. You can listen to the entire interview here. In this episode, I mention my Ultimate Guide to Sentence Structure.In order to build strong language comprehension needed for reading, writing, and other important life skills, kids need to have a solid understanding of sentence structure.In this guide, I outline common challenging sentence types, how to write goals to target them, and some evidence-based strategies for working on them.>>>You can get a free copy of the Ultimate Guide to Sentence Structure here.

In this episode, we will be having a very important discussion about school-based interventions. Many times, parents are unaware of what supports are available if their child is struggling. Sometimes it may be difficult for you to know where to start or even what to expect, so that's why I interviewed one of the experts in this area to help better support you in building your knowledge base. About This Episode's Special Guest:Dr. Brett Nelson is a school psychology professor at California State University - San Bernardino and Nationally Certified School Psychologist, and he is going to help provide more clarity surrounding the school-based intervention process.

In episode 29 of the Are they 18 yet?™ podcast, I did part 3 of a 3-part series on literacy (you can find parts 1 and 2 in episodes 27 and 28.)Since the influx of technology, a lot of us are left wondering how this will impact our children's learning; especially their reading and writing skills. ✅That's why I discussed the following in this episode:✅The difference between "explicit learning" and "implicit learning".✅The kind of opportunities kids need in order to develop solid reading/spelling skills. ✅Why typical reading instruction leaves some kids behind; plus what pieces are typically missing. ✅The pros and cons of technology for struggling readers.In this episode, I mention a blog post called "What is texting doing to reading and spelling skills?" where I dive further in to this conversation. I also mentioned a simple protocol you can use to study challenging spelling patterns (like affixes), which I outline in this article. Finally, I also talked about my Word Study Toolkit, which offers a set of definitions and concepts you can use to help build the skills kids need to be fluent readers and spellers. Here's what's inside the Word Study Toolkit:Over 200 flashcards with prefixes, root/base words, suffixes, and multiple meaning words to build strong reading and spelling skills.Word lists with key orthographic concepts, so you have a quick guide to important word parts needed for strong vocabulary skills.Descriptions of 17 key concepts for building morphology/orthography skills.All flashcards and word lists have definitions, so your students actually remember how words are spelled.BONUS: Video tutorials with a quick-guide for using the toolkit to build reading and spelling skills.You can get instant access to the Word Study Toolkit here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/wordstudy

Episode 37: Response to Intervention (rti) with Mindy Bridges

Another episode in the way back machine with Jerry and Curt. Over the past decade or so, research within the field of behavioral health has given rise to a wide variety of evidence-based practices. Characterizing and legitimately testing the effects of treatments has been a significant positive direction for behavioral health.  However, notably missing from this literature are investigations of factors related to individuals who did not appear to benefit from the interventions.  Understanding individual differences may contribute valuable information about how and when interventions are most likely to be effective.

OBJECTIVE. This study examined the efficacy of a 10-wk Tier 1 Response to Intervention (RtI) program developed in collaboration with classroom teachers to improve the fine motor and visual–motor skills of general education kindergarten students. METHOD. We recruited 113 students in six elementary schools. Two general education kindergarten classrooms at each school participated in the study. Classrooms were randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups. Fine motor skills, pencil grip, and visual–motor integration were measured at the beginning of the school year and after the 10-wk intervention.

Why do Response to Intervention and Multi-Tiered Systems of Supports matter? In this interview, we speak with Jim Wright, author of “The RTI Toolkit: A Practical Guide for Schools” about his experience in RTI and how schools can impact students with academic and behavioral tiered intervention systems.

On this episode of the Early Accountability Podcast with Kimi Walker, our guest is Marvin Prather, an educator and intervention coordinator who spends his days working with kids who have math or reading deficits to get them up to grade level. Marvin has seen students make great improvements in their math and reading skills as well as their behavior in the classroom by partnering with the student’s classroom teacher to create a plan of action specifically for that student. Typically, the first step in helping students in subject areas of deficiency is to put them in a small group of students to go over the subject matter to give each student more personalized attention and the ability to ask more clarifying questions if they do not understand. If this method does not show improvement after a few weeks, the classroom teacher will have a meeting with the student’s parents to discuss what has already been done to help their child and they will discuss together a plan for increased interventions, such as increasing small group time to 2-3 times per week or reducing the number of problems being presented for the student to solve. In most situations, Marvin has noticed measurable improvement within 2-3 months. Marvin’s advice to parents is to talk to the child’s classroom teacher to see if there are any resources they can be using at home to help their child progress. Additionally, if the child’s teacher has contacted the parents to discuss their child’s behavior in school, it is likely that their behavior is linked to difficulty understanding some of the subject matter being taught, so this should be handled appropriately and consistently. Marvin’s advice to teachers is to set clear expectations and maintain a consistent environment for all students, using rewards or incentives to encourage good behavior and a rapport with the students that will create trust.

In today's show, Sharon and I discuss how you might go about getting help for your child in school. Part of this is understanding the first steps, called Response to Intervention, or RTI. Teachers are supposed to try different, research-based interventions with the child in the classroom, to see if the child improves, before referring the child for possible testing and evaluation for special education services, that might require developing a special education program, commonly called an Individualized Education Plan or Program (IEP).As part of this show, I have put together a list of common modifications and accommodations that are typically made for kids in the classroom- think of this as a "menu" of sorts of possible, but not exclusive, changes that can be made to help your child. You can find this list and links to other resources under the link "Accommodations Guide".We have our big holiday book give away coming- and I hope you will are participate! Here are the rules:1.
