Simplifying RTI: Four Essential Guiding Principles

“If our new mission is to ensure high levels of learning for all students, learning must be the constant, while instruction and time must be varied to meet the needs of every student. That is the purpose of RTI: to systematically provide every child with the additional time and support needed to learn at high levels.”

“Ultimately, for interventions to work best, they must be offered during a time when teachers are paid to be there and students are required to be there.”

Focused Learning
An academic intervention is a strategy used to teach a new skill, build fluency in a skill, or encourage a child to apply an existing skill to new situations or settings. An intervention can be thought of as “a set of actions that, when taken, have demonstrated ability to change a fixed educational trajectory” (Methe & Riley-Tillman, 2008; p. 37).1

Focused Learning
An extension activity can be directly linked to course content for a course that you are teaching. It is an opportunity to gather honors challenge students, bring in a guest speaker that normally would not be available to attend your class, to pair up with another teacher, or to generally build more challenging experiences for students who are enrolled in a course that you teach.

Enrichment opportunities allow our staff and students to access materials and programs that are not readily available during a typical classroom setting. During enrichment activities students will be able to go beyond their usual course offerings to explore their many talents and abilities. We, as an educational community, recognize the merit and value of many programs that simple do not fit in the curricula that we teach. These topics will offer educational value and correlate to a standard or piece of research that explains the educational merit.

Study Hall
Study Hall, under the guidance of administration, is a quiet place for students to work if they have not been tagged for an intervention or extension, or signed up for an enrichment activity. We are currently working on integrating a teacher-facilitated “help desk” to create a more productive work environment for our students.
