Ever wondered why math and writing seem to get overshadowed in educational interventions? It's time to change the narrative. Join us as we explore the pressing need to broaden the MTSS framework beyond its usual focus on reading. We'll delve into the significance of effective Tier 1 curriculums for math and writing and highlight the current gaps in educational support systems. Learn how to identify struggling students through targeted screeners and assessments and advocate for the robust curricula they deserve. We aim to arm educators with the tools and understanding needed to support their students in every subject comprehensively.
In this episode, we also tackle the unique challenges faced by writing intervention teachers who operate without a scripted program. Discover the benefits of customizing interventions to meet individual student needs and the critical importance of progress monitoring in subjects often neglected. We emphasize the necessity for regular data chats and dedicated meetings to ensure math and writing get the attention they truly deserve within the MTSS framework. As a bonus, get a sneak peek into our upcoming episode focused on MTSS strategies for managing and improving student behavior, promising educators strong coffee, calm students, and an amazing summer ahead.
