Improve your MTSS/RTI Process
10 Success Factors for Literacy Intervention: Getting Results with MTSS in Elementary Schools
In some schools, MTSS/RTI is losing steam because other initiatives are consuming educators’ attention. Diverting focus away from MTSS is a mistake. A systemic approach to differentiating instruction to meet the needs of all students should be nonnegotiable.
It’s not a fad, and it shouldn’t be pushed aside for something else that draws the staff’s attention.
One reason it may be easy to push aside MTSS is that although results have been outstanding in some schools, they have been negligible in too many others. The reason results have not been consistently strong is that in implementing MTSS, too many schools
have left out critical components.
What are schools that are getting good results doing? When results are unimpressive, what’s missing?
Author and literacy expert Dr. Susan Hall answers these persistent questions in her publication, 10 Success Factors for Literacy Intervention: Getting Results with MTSS in Elementary Schools.
Dr. Hall's experience in working with schools across the United States led to the development of a list of 10 success factors observable in schools that are getting significant gains in student literacy with MTSS.
THE 10 SUCCESS FACTORS INCLUDE:
1. Group by Skill Deficit
2. Use Diagnostic Assessments
3. Implement a Walk-to-Intervention Delivery Model
4. Monitor Progress with an Appropriate Assessment
5. Flood the Intervention Block with Extra Instructors
6. Use Intervention Time Wisely
7. Be Aware of What Makes Intervention Effective
8. Provide Teachers with Intervention Lesson Materials
9. Invest in Professional Development
10. Inspect What You Expect
