Keynote

An expert RTI at Work author or certified associate will energize and engage your team to help build momentum in your RTI practices. Our keynoters can address the topic that is right for your school, including an introduction to the essential elements of RTI, strategies to help prioritize learning outcomes, or the most current best practices for interventions and enrichment.

RTI at Work Overview

This on-site workshop provides a comprehensive overview of the RTI at Work model. You and your team will be introduced to the essential elements needed to create a highly effective, multitiered system of supports (MTSS) to ensure all students learn at high levels. This includes how to:

  • Build effective teams to know when and how to respond to students
  • Prioritize essential learning outcomes for optimal focus on what students should learn
  • Target assessments to help identify what they have learned or not
  • Systematically respond when students need intervention and enrichment

Recommended for: Schools and teacher teams who practice RTI and MTSS and who are ready to take the next step. This service is also for onboarding new teachers in schools where the RTI at Work model is implemented.

Simplifying Response to Intervention

Learning a successful RTI model begins by asking the right questions to create a fundamentally effective learning environment for every student. RTI is not a series of implementation steps, but rather a way of thinking, including how to:

  • Create a focused RTI model that works
  • Shift to a culture of collective responsibility and build team structures for collaboration
  • Develop a system of convergent assessment to identify students for intervention, determine their unique needs, monitor their progress, and adjust learning opportunities based on their progress

Why RTI at Work?

The process and practices of a professional learning community provide the foundation needed to ensure high levels of learning for all students. RTI at Work leverages the power of collaborative teams and the focus of the 4 Critical Questions of the PLC at Work process to drive effective interventions and extensions.

Four Critical Questions of a PLC

  1. What knowledge, skills, and dispositions should every student acquire as a result of this unit, this course, or this grade level?
  2. How will we know when each student has acquired the essential knowledge and skills?
  3. How will we respond when some students do not learn?
  4. How will we extend the learning for students who are already proficient?

If RTI seems overwhelming and your school or district struggles to implement interventions that make a difference, take a step back and assess your school culture and structure.
