The 2018-2019 school year started in my area last week with the arrival of the teachers( admin has been back since August 6th)so pleasure reading has been overtaken by professional development. I find myself in a new role within an elementary school as a resource teacher. I am excited but also nervous! I had a great chat with my colleagues yesterday and since grades 1-3 actively pursue an RTI model, I really felt that I needed to brush up and get in that mindset. This is a fairly decent resource that discusses intervention at both elementary and secondary levels. Maybe not my favorite RTI book, but I found it was useful and took some "reminder" notes when I have those discouraging days.

I found this to be one of the best books that I have read on Education in a long time. It was written for teachers with real life examples and usable proformas. I am currently developing RTI for use in my school and have found this book easy to understand and providing me with a great starting point for developing the model.

Great read especially if your school had the Intervention process and you are looking to make it better. I am motivated to review our Tier Interventions for each grade level and see what can be improved. As a leader in the school I have reflected on what I can do to be better in this process and now I have ideas, example, and websites to help me along the way.

Great intro to RtI, especially as my district is moving this direction. Gave me a clear idea of what we are already doing and where we need to go.

This book provides a different look and twist into the RTI process for teachers and school administrators. Instead of solely developing a intervention plan by yourself as the classroom teacher, this book shows you how working as a grade level Professional Learning Community can best support your schools students.

Decent professional read. I appreciated the use of case studies, rather than the dissertation-type approach of many professional books. I didn't think it was mind blowing, but it did pose some good questions and validated some of my current beliefs.

Read
August 23, 2010We are reading this as a staff at Leavitt. So far, sort of slow, but I have only read the first three chapters and it is only an introduction to RTI and sort of justifying it.

Vague but motivational and good resources included. A nice general book study and a fair introduction to RTI.
