The Role of the The Role of the TeacherTeacher
Basically, the state believes that teachers, along with the school district,
are responsible for students that fail. If a student does not pass your class, the
state wants to be sure that proper interventions were used by the teacher.

4. 4. If the student does not make any progress towards meeting the academic requirements of your class after two weeks of intervention, fill out the proper paperwork and refer to Tier 2 Intervention. Hand in all paperwork to the counseling office. The counselors will then email you regarding a short meeting with the Problem Solving Team.
1.1. Monitor student progress weekly (skyward).
2.2. Meet with students one on one that are not meeting your academic requirements. Ask the student and/or explain to the student areas of concern and discuss future interventions that you would like to implement. Examples of this are; a. Explain/Handout Study Skills and Time Management Skills with the student b. Differentiated Instruction c. Discuss Time Management with the student d. Parental Contact and Involvement e.

Adapt the way instruction is delivered to the learner.
For example:Use different visual aids, enlarge text, plan more concrete examples, provide hands-on activities, place students in cooperative groups, pre-teach key concepts or terms before the lesson
Adapt the number of items that the learner is expected to learn or complete.
For example:Reduce the number of social studies terms a learner must learn at any one time. Add more activities or worksheets.
Adapt the time allotted and allowed for learning, task completion, or testing.
For example:Individualize a timeline for completing a task; pace learning differently (increase or decrease) for some learners.
Increase the amount of personal assistance to keep the student on task or to reinforce or prompt use of specific skills. Enhance adult-student relationships; use physical space and environmental structure.
For example:Assign peer buddies, teaching assistants, peer tutors, or cross age tutors.
Adapt the skill level, problem type, or the rules on how the learner may approach the work.
For example:Allow the use of a calculator to figure math problems; simplify task directions; change rules to accommodate learner needs.
Adapt how the student can respond to instruction.
For example:Instead of answering questions in writing, allow a verbal response, use a communication book for some students, allow students to show knowledge with hands on materials.
Adapt the extent to which a learner is actively involved in the task.
For example:A student who has difficulty presenting in front of a class could be given the option of presenting to just the teacher.
Adapt the goals or outcome expectations while using the same materials. When routinely utilized, this is only for students with moderate to severe disabilities.
For example:In social studies, expect a student to be able to locate the colors of the states on a map, while other students learn to locate each state and name each capital.
Provide different instruction and materials to meet a learner’s individual goals. When routinely utilized, this is only for students with moderate to severe disabilities.
For example:During a math test, a student is working on an eye-hand coordination activity.

and complete Tier II referral form.
Continuous communication between the tutor, the teachers and the counselor
