PRIOR RtI Model
 Monthly meetings with grade level representation
(interventionists)
 Classroom teacher reported concerns to

Transference
To collaborate as a team and provide
support to students based upon
needs and generalize/transfer these
strategies to Tier I instruction.
Kid Talk Meetings
 Who? Grade level Teams, TRT, SE teacher, and
SST Liaison (GT Liaison if necessary)
 When? One Academic and One Behavior per
month from 8:15-8:45
 Why? Student who are NOT RESPONDING to
intervention
 How? Scheduled by the teacher with the TRT
Calendar
PDSA Plan
Behavior
PDSA Plan
Academics
Parent Communication
Letter to receive Intervention
Narrative to review progress in the
intervention each quarter.
Daily communication through
journal, color change, etc.
Scenarios
 Each Team will receive a Scenario.
 Read the Scenario
 Dialogue about the possible next steps
 Share with the group
The Flat Liner
A child has been receiving intervention for four marking
period cycles. Progress is minimal for the student and
progress monitoring data is flat. The student has
moved from Tier II to Tier III support and has an SSP to
monitor progress. The data collected to monitor the
SSP (8 weeks) has still demonstrated no progress.
What is the next step?
Zone Jumper
A child has moved from Yellow Zone with Tier II support
for behavior to the Red Zone. This Tier II support
included Check-In/Check-Out (CICO) and targeted social
skill instruction.
What do you do next?
The Mover
A student just moved into BVES. After
receiving initial screening for classroom
placement, the homeroom teacher
immediately sees that the child is not able to
read grade level text.
What is the next step?
The High Achiever
A student scores 100% on his math pre-test. The
student’s Scantron score is in the advanced range for
math and proficient range for reading. The teacher has
noted minor behavioral concerns in the classroom
including: calling out and questioning the teacher.
What is the next step?
The Lisp
A PK student is presenting with multiple sound errors.
The student is difficult to understand in conversations
with peers and staff. This makes it difficult to assess the
students’ academic skills.
What do you do next?
The Empty Chair
A child has chronic absenteeism and has
resulted in low academic performance in
both reading and math. Due to attendance,
the student does not currently receive
intervention.
What is the next step?
RED in Inform
A student performs Intensive on the fall
reading benchmark assessment but seems
to do well in the classroom and on other
assessments.
What is the next step?
Here we go.
Six weeks into the school year, a student in your
classroom is still not responding to classroom
expectations. As a result, the student has
received multiple MIRs and has been referred to
the office twice.
What do you do next?

The Results
 “New process is timely and allows us to put a focus
on activities to help each student.”
 “I like that teachers are having discussions about
students. We know our age group and can support
students with effective strategies for their academic
and behavioral needs.”
 “We are using data to make our decisions and
support students movement through the pyramid.”
 “Students are responding to our plans!!!”
Next Steps
 Reintroduce the process to Teams
 Continue to Monitor the process
