Prevention to Avoid Intervention
Tier 1: the most important tier!
Targets
•We should spend 90 minutes of core reading time•There must be fidelity to the core•Effective instruction must be explicit
Explicit about my instruction•Gives you a road map for where we
are going•Creates a “sense of urgency”
regarding today
Expectations• Demonstrate good audience skills– Silence cell phones– Hold side conversations out of ear shot
of others– Engage in active listening
• Participate in discussions• Take notes to track your thinking• If you need a break, take one
Explicit about my instruction•Clear expectations reduce confusion
•I assume you know all these things
Partnerships• Pick someone near year you to be
your partner.• The person with the next birthday is
coffee.• The other person is cream.
How’s your herd?
Start with the Why
Why
How
What
Simon Sinek
• A core Reading program provides a system of instruction for students as they move through grade levels.
Why do we need a core?
Core is for all students
RTI begins with General Education!
Teachers don’t fail students, systems do.
RTI is a system for differentiation of instruction!
RTI is a system that is predicated on the general education teachers’ skill and knowledge of instruction, assessment, curriculum, and children.
Strong core instruction
Weak core instruction
Interventions
We cannot solve the herd problem one cow at a time. We need a system to feed them all well.
In other words
Start with the Why
Why
How
What
Simon Sinek
• A core Reading program has pieces that are standardized across the district that provide guidance and clarity as to the expectations for instruction.
How is instruction organized?
We should spend 90 minutes of core reading time
becausesuccessful core
instruction is the most important thing you can
do in RTI.
90 minutes• Core programs are written and designed to be
taught for 90 to 120 minutes. • This does not include the instruction of writing– It may include the practice of writing• Writing in response to reading

• More whole group instruction on Monday and Tuesday
• Not the same amount of small group time for each group each day
Large group instruction• Text is designed to be the initial instruction• Text is used as a model to teach literacy
skills• Whole group text may be above or below
some students• Whole group instruction should be a
limited amount of time

Small Group Instruction• Text is at the students instructional
level• The text is focused on the needs of
the students• Teacher provides background,
addresses vocabulary and text features
• Each student has their own copy of the text and they read independently while the adult observes their reading behaviors
• After the students read, the adult leads a group discussion

Struggling readers in core
• They need the most instruction.• Need to be exposed to grade level
material.• Just because there is a deficit in one
area, does not mean there is a deficit in all areas of reading.
• If they miss grade level material, they will never catch up.
• Interventions are limited in scope.
90 minutes
There is no “RTI way” of organizing your 90 minute
blocks.
The district will standardize,the building will customize
Differentiation during 90 minutes
Differentiation is changing the size of the meal, not the menu.

Talk Time• Coffee please answer the following
question:–How do the sample minutes given
in the handouts match what you currently use in your class?
• Cream please answer the following question:–How do you currently differentiate
your instruction for your neediest students.
• With extra time switch questions
Explicit about my instruction•Explicit roles for each partner
•Built in differentiation•It is the beginning of the conversation, I
realize there will not be enough time
There must be fidelity to the corebecause
successful core instruction is the most

vs.
Fidelity to the core
Worksheets Fidelity
Why is fidelity important?
• Comprehensive program that incorporates all components of reading• Students have the opportunity to make
connections• Students read text that supports
vocabulary, phonics, and comprehension lessons
• The whole school has a common language, common goal, and common tools
Curriculum specific fidelity checklists
Non-curriculum specific fidelity checklists
Fidelity to the core
1. The Big 5 of Reading2. The scope and sequence3. State and common core
standards4. Common instructional
strategies
Big 5 of Reading
•Phonemic Awareness •Phonics•Fluency•Vocabulary•Comprehension
Finite Skills
Infinite Skills
Scope and sequence
Scope and sequence• We want to be sure that we know
what has and what will be taught. • Mastery of skills looks different at all
levels• Repeated opportunities to learn
State Standards & CCS
Common Instructional Strategies
Who ensures fidelity?• Fidelity checklist should provide
clarity to teachers• District must decide who is
responsible to check– Principal– Literacy coach
• Fidelity checks should occur regularly – two to three times a year– 10 minutes each class
There must be fidelity to the corebecause
successful core instruction is the most
important thing you can do in RTI.
Talk Time• Cream please answer the following
question:–Define fidelity in 1 sentence.
• Coffee please answer the following question:–How would the perfect fidelity tool
look to you?
• With extra time switch questions

What
Simon Sinek
• A core Reading program includes ways for us to deliver the content in ways that students will most effectively learn.
What does instruction looks like?
Effective instruction is explicitbecause
successful core instruction is the most
important thing you can do in RTI.
Explicit instruction is a systematic instructional approach that includes a set of delivery and design procedures derived from effective schools research.
~Ideas That Work
Explicit Instruction is. . .
• Engaging• Systematic• Relentless

Explicit Instruction is Engaging
• Frequent responses are elicited– Things students say– Things students do– Things students write
• Responses are monitored• Positive and corrective feedback is
given

Multiple opportunities for student responses
Feedback works 2 ways:
From the teacher to the student
From the student to the teacher
By giving a chance for multiple responses, students are retrieving, rehearsing and practicing what has been taught.

Purposeful Partnerships
Purposeful Partnerships
• Increase student talk time• Intentionally assigned by
teacher• Multiple turns leads to
multiple opportunities•More turns = more practice
Dr. Anita Archer
Focus … As you watch this video,
• Note the active participation procedures that are directly taught to students.
Explicit about my instruction•Writing as a response to
instruction•Set the purpose•Build background, targeted conversation
Talk TimeCoffee will begin followed by Cream–Begin to list the active participation
strategies that were taught to students –List items until you have exhausted
your list
• With extra time talk about how you could spread this practice around your school.
• Content– Sequenced logically–Manageable steps that progress from
simple to more complex concepts and skills

students– Review and build background knowledge– Review at the end of the lesson– Scaffolding – Includes instructional routines

– Say the word– Provide a student friendly definition– Provide a context with examples and
non-examples– Students engage in discourse about the

We want students to apply the lessons to the next text they read.

Whole group video• Watch for:– Think aloud to model new information for
students– I do, we do, ya’ll do, you do– Graphic organizers– Maintain close proximity to students.
• Target: Description– We have discussed vocabulary– We have just done a picture walk
• 2nd grade in SE Oregon
You will be discussing one of these questions with your partner:
• What instructional strategies worked well during the whole group?
• What strategies did the instructor use to engage the students in reading?
Talk Time• Cream please answer the following
question:–What instructional strategies worked
well during the whole group?• Coffee please answer the following

engage the students in reading?

We must have effective instruction because
