Mastery Check = Movement Check
RTI Groups
So if you have an official RTI Group, after two weeks you will need to Progress Monitor students to check to see how much they have moved. Note: You can assign a Mastery Check to anyone, whether they are in an official RTI Intervention or not, but the official RTI students have to PM'ed. To do this, we will use a Mastery Check. Think of a Mastery Check as a Movement Check. Here's how to assign a Mastery Check:
