tions. Author Margaret Searle provides you

puts you on a foundation of sound advice, including

• Why RTI doesn’t mean starting over from scratch on your school

• What RTI looks like when done well.

• How to minimize the overuse of costly Tier 2 and Tier 3 interven-

tions.

the way.

Implementing RTI in Secondary SchoolsDVD Series

Go way beyond the theory of Response to Intervention (RTI) to see

exactly what schools do to help struggling students and close achieve-ment gaps. This powerful DVD series follows an entering high school

freshman through an RTI approach that emphasizes

• Universal Screening to identify learners who are struggling with

academic and behavioral skills and programs that are draining time

and energy from teachers without closing gaps for students.

• Diagnostic Assessment to show evidence of gaps between the

expected outcomes and the actual performance.

• A Three-Tiered Instructional Intervention that increases with inten-

sity from mainstream students to small-group learning. • A Pyramid of Intervention that helps educators taking inventory of

what is already in place and fill in the gap with expert ideas.

• Resources such as research tools and pools of expert teachers to

bolster efforts.

Program One shows how teachers, administrators, and specialists use the

results of universal screening and diagnostic tests to determine how a

collaborative team designs specific interventions based on a three-tiered

instructional intervention. In Program Two, see how teachers, specialists,

and parents come up with innovative strategies to use both in the class-room and at home.

different, and what teachers need is a

gies for engaging troubled, hard-to-teach students with motivation-building lessons

academic vocabulary. Demonstrations from elementary and secondary classrooms showexamples of a research-based, six-step vocabulary teaching process. Your workshop audience

sees actual classroom teachers walk through the vocabulary teaching process and use the ASCD

student and teacher materials to build students’ academic vocabulary. These classroom examples

and lots of teacher tips ensure that teachers grasp the instructional process right away and find it

and teach it in the same way, your school has a powerful comprehensive approach.



Why backgroundknowledge is so

important

What students already know about a

subject—their background knowledge—

is one of the strongest indicators of how

well they will learn new information about

that subject. And students with a disad-

vantaged background knowledge have

a harder time in school. We give you

ways to build your students’ background

knowledge to overcome the obstacles to

higher achievement.
