RTI in Math : Practical Guidelines for Elementary Teachers

As teachers and administrators become aware of the potential for applying response to intervention (RTI) to mathematics, there is an immediate need for information on how to implement this process in the classroom. This book addresses that need. RTI is used to ensure a successful learning experience for all students by targeting specific areas where students struggle and eliminating threats to learning and development. This map of the RTI process offers an overview of research, detailed guidance through each stage of RTI implementation, tools for teacher reflection and growth, and discussion of support strategies beyond the classroom. The authors analyze a variety of common student difficulties in elementary math and apply a three-tier RTI model to the general education classroom. They also include a variety of assessment materials, research-based instructional strategies, and numerous case studies of RTI implementation.
