Breif summary for this document:
This article begins with an introduction that how much RTI is important for Pre-K and how RTI helps all children be successful in learning abilities such as language, literacy, and academic area. RTI assessment is a great method for children who have developmental learning challenges. For approaching successful RTI assessment for children, teachers should know students’ background such as family background, cultures, beliefs, strengths, weaknesses, and so on. Therefore, teachers should consider about 3 types of tiered in instructions and intervention, high-quality classroom instruction, monitoring for students’ ongoing assessment, and family engagement.
For approaching RTI for Pre-K, there is a three-tiered model for children. First of all, tier 1 provides high quality programs for every child. In this tier, teachers use each child’s information for determining what the child would need right now. Secondly, tier 2 provides more intensive learning opportunities and additional helps. In this tier, teachers use collaborative problem solving process including family members’ supports. Finally, in tier 3, teachers should consider about children who do not meet with instructions and interventions that teachers provide. The students may be focused on more individualized and intensive interventions.
In this article, there are also five examples of adaptations of RTI. Recognition & Response (R&R) is the first example. R&R is a high quality instruction model for 3 to 5 years old children and it should provide core, strategic, and intensive supports for every young child in early language, literacy, and math area. As second example, The Literacy Partnership is a three years program for early reading program. Its target is a 3 to 4 years old child with low-income families. Early language learners can be provided ongoing monitoring progress and collaborative problem solving. Center for Response to Intervention in Early Childhood (CRTIEC) is the third example. CRTIEC is a research center and it helps children who are not ready for kindergarten in language, communication, and literacy with long-term goal. For the forth example, Rockford Early Childhood Program especially focuses on academic ability and social/emotional skills for young children, ages 3 to 5. Lastly, Colorado State Department of Education adopts the three-tiered model of RTI. It has been implemented in K-12 education for academic and behavioral supports.
