Figure 1.2: Restructuring Current Support
Classes in Reading and Mathematics to
Become Tier 2 and 3 Intervention Classes
1. What supplemental reading and mathematics curricula programs, if
any (reading support, math lab), currently exist in our school? Can we
restructure these to provide Tier 2 or Tier 3 support in those core areas,
or should we continue to consider them Tier 1 instructional supports?
2. How will we determine which students should be placed in Tier 2 or Tier 3
intervention support classes? What screening procedures should we use,
and what group of students should we screen?
3. What assessments in mathematics might currently be available that we
could adapt for progress monitoring in reading and mathematics once
students are in Tier 2 or Tier 3 interventions? Have we heard about any
tools in this workshop that we’d like more information on?
4. Will our current instructional arrangements in those support classes
work as Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions in reading and mathematics? Are
general education teachers in language arts and algebra delivering those
support classes? Should they undertake the Tier 2 and 3 interventions?
5. Do we need new supplemental intervention curricula in reading or
mathematics? Can anyone recommend a curriculum? Should we seek a
computer-driven intervention curriculum to save teachers’ time?
