17
What’s your status quo?
For improved achievement:
effective instruction of standards-aligned core curriculum plus intervention for students in need
18
Core At least 50-60 minutes 3 phase lesson
• Guided practice• Checking for understanding (CFU)
Formative Assessment Immediate remediation
• Error analysis• Content knowledge packets• Extensive tool bag of strategies and practices
Differentiation of instruction
19
Three Phase Lesson Direct Instruction: 20% state learning objective CFU warm up/review (connect to prior learning) CFU
introduce/teach (direct instruction): model, discuss, demonstrate CFU
Guided Practice: 55% students follow teacher example CFU teacher gradually removes support CFU
Goal: move students to independent work CFUHow do you know when they are ready?When 80% or better are CONSISTENTLY correct.
CFU CFU CFU CFU CFU
Independent Practice: 20% Remediation = less need for intervention later CFU enrichment
Closure: 5% CFU
CFU, Checking For Understanding, at these points leads to more FOCUSED remediation later.

Formative Assessment
Formative assessment is a process used by teachers and students during instruction that provides feedback to adjust ongoing teaching and learning to improve students’ achievement of intended instructional outcomes.

InstructionalAssessment
Long-cycle Span: across units, terms Length: four weeks to one year
Medium-cycle Span: within and between teaching units Length: one to four weeks
Short-cycle Span: within and between lessons Length: day-by-day- 24 to 48 hours minute-by-minute- 5 seconds to 2 hours

Transformative Assessment, Popham
26
Student Adjustments
• Understand learning goals and criteria for success
• Self- and peer- assessment
• Using feedback
27
National Math Panel on FA Based on its review of research, the Panel
recommends regular use of formative assessment, particularly for students in the elementary grades. These assessments need to provide information … (i.e., correlation of these measures with other measures of mathematics proficiency). For struggling students, frequent (e.g., weekly or biweekly) use of these assessments appears optimal, so that instruction can be adapted based on student progress.
• National Mathematics Panel, 2008
28
Three Tiered Intervention: RTI
In this model key instructional decisions are based on assessment data.
Data is collected and analyzed for strategic planning of targeting instruction.
29
Three Tiered Intervention: RTITier 1 All students receive core instruction prevention,
and/or remediation. Differentiating instruction to meet the needs of diverse learners
is a key consideration at this level. Universal screening in core academic areas to identify each student’s proficiency level (typically 3 times a year).
This data is used to 1) plan for the instructional needs of all students, 2) identify students who need extra support, and 3) determine whether the school’s instructional program is meeting the needs of the majority of students (80%).
30
Tier 2
Struggling students receive strategic instruction in addition to core.
Students receive individualized interventions. Assessment information is collected in order to determine why a student is not developing at the same pace as their peers.
OR All students who show similar, predictable difficulties
systematically receive the same standard set of interventions. Assessment data is used to help teams form hypotheses for why a problem is occurring.
31
Tier 3
Students receive intensive intervention. 1. Students show progress but need support not available in
general education in order to maintain this progress, OR 2. Students do not display meaningful progress in spite of the
intensive interventions. Students receive longer term, intensive instructional interventions designed to increase their rate of progress.
Special education eligibility might be considered at this level.

Delivery Decisions When?
• During day• Outside of day• Intersession/summer school
How much? How often?• Daily• ___sessions of ____minutes per week
Provided by whom?• Classroom teacher • Grade level/span• Specialists• Additional personnel
39
Delivery Decisions
Where? • Implications for scheduling
• Room assignments How many?
• Small group
• Individual Grouping?
• Within class• leveling within a grade
• Leveling across grades

Kindergarten (extended day or full day)
I hour twice weekly
swap: students move to leveled groups
Kindergarten (regular 3 hour schedule)
20 minutes, instructional aide and partner teacher assist with groups

Management
Implications for scheduling
room assignments, Changing groups Assessment data Keeping track
• SASI/attendance systems
Who keeps track?
47
Implementation
Professional development-ongoing on materials-strategies
When?• Collaborative planning
• Academic conferences
• Grade level meetings
• Staff meetings
48
Implementation
Piloting/buy in• Volunteers
• Broaden use
School wide small steps
49
What This Means
Process: not an isolated add on Ongoing maintenance/reassessment of
needs Ongoing professional development No magic bullet Flexibility required
50
Barriers
Time (additional minutes, common instructional time, scheduling)
Materials (determining needs, matching) Allowing for easy movement in/out of
groups What are the other kids doing?
51
Solid core• Adjusted instruction
• Immediate remediation
Intervention• Targeted
• Limited time, exit/entry point
• In addition to core
52
Next Steps
Raise questions.
Validate own process.
Provide direction for initial steps.
