RTI in Math : Practical Guidelines for Elementary Teachers

Proponents call the response to intervention (RTI) process a fundamental paradigm shift in education. RTI in Math describes how this three-tiered system of interventions, which has proven effective in reading instruction, can be applied to primary and elementary mathematics education. Authors William N. Bender and Darlene Crane offer an accessible, detailed map of the RTI process to help all students succeed in mathematics.

This practical guidebook:

Explains the three tiers of intervention and when each should be used

Provides research-based strategies for implementation and instruction

Explores numerous case studies to analyze common student difficulties in mathematics and suggests specific steps to address them

Includes reproducible tools for student and staff assessment, data collection, and documentation of RTI procedures
