This is a practical and comprehensive guide to Response to Intervention for anyone involved in education. Response to Intervention (RTI) is an innovative instructional method that enables educators to assess and meet the needs of struggling students before they have fallen too far behind. While the initiative is rapidly gaining momentum, many educators still have questions about RTI, such as 'what are the three tiers of intervention?' and 'how do screening and progress monitoring really work?'. "RTI Success" is a practical and comprehensive resource that answers these and many other questions, whilst also providing educators with the step-by-step guidelines for implementing RTI, as well as down-to-earth, research-based strategies for targeting specific skill deficits in students. Also included with this volume is a CD-ROM that includes an informative PowerPoint presentation, and more than 50 reproducible forms and handouts.
