Program Description: A significant number of adolescents enter middle school unable to read and understand complex informational or narrative text. These students would benefit from a multi-tiered system of supports that provide responsive reading instruction across tiers of a Response to Intervention Model. The overall goal of this professional development session is to provide general and special education teachers, content area teachers, administrators, and support staff with foundational knowledge regarding best practices for older students who struggle to read.
Topics: • Profile of the Adolescent Struggling Reader • Responsive Reading Practices Across the Tiers • Word Study • Fluency • Vocabulary • Comprehension • Motivation

Program Description: Response to Intervention can be defined as a schoolwide prevention framework that integrates assessment and intervention to improve student outcomes. While much of RtI research and attention has focused on elementary models, RtI implementation at the middle school level is gaining momentum and increased attention. Implementing RtI in Middle School is an all-day workshop designed to provide RtI middle school teams with information and resources needed to effectively implement a multi-level intervention model in their school. Attention will be devoted to examining various RtI models at the middle school level with respect to scheduling for supplemental intervention, screening, and progress monitoring.

Program Description: Across New York State, schools are working tirelessly to implement the ELA Common Core Learning Standards (CCLS). At the same time, schools are required to have established a prevention model commonly known as Response to Intervention (RtI) to meet the literacy needs of students in K – 4 who struggle to meet grade level expectations. This workshop is designed to help school personnel understand how their RtI framework can support the teaching and learning of CCLS in literacy. This workshop will present practical approaches for creating a seamless integration of RtI and CCLS. Attention will be devoted to helping classroom teachers and reading specialists work collaboratively to meet the needs of children who require something extra in order to achieve the expectations established by the CCLS for ELA. A Powerpoint presentation supported by case studies and interactive activities will be used to help school teams consider new alternatives for differentiating instruction to most effectively meet the needs of all students.
