RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION (RTI)
RTI TEAM & COACHES' TRAINING
Join us for a four (4) day RTI Team & Coaches' Training with Margaret Searle!
Response to Intervention (RTI) is a multi-tier approach to the early identification and support of students with learning and behavior needs. The RTI process begins with high-quality instruction and universal screening of all children in the general education classroom.
Target Audience:
Administrators, supervisors, counselors, psychologists, special and general education teachers.
*** Most schools find it helpful to send teams made up of administrators, special education and general education teachers.
***Teams should bring real case studies with them including data about the severity of the students' problems, i.e., oral reading fluency scores, digits per minute counts, numbers of disruptions per class period, frequency of missing assignments, etc.
