Are standardized intervention programs failing your struggling readers? Join me, on this enlightening episode of the Reaching Struggling Learners podcast, where we uncover how the Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) can be the game-changer in boosting reading skills. We emphasize the critical role of phonics in the Tier 1 curriculum to establish a robust foundation for all students. Learn how universal screeners are the key to pinpointing struggling readers and seamlessly transitioning them to Tier 2 or Tier 3 interventions. This is particularly crucial for older students in middle and high school, who need targeted, intensive support to catch up and succeed.
Discover why one-size-fits-all programs often fall short and how tailoring interventions to meet specific needs can make all the difference. I'll share tried-and-true strategies for effective progress monitoring, including how to record and graph data to derive actionable insights. Plus, we discuss the importance of structured MTSS meetings with clear agendas to ensure timely and efficient implementation of interventions. Our ultimate goal? To equip you with the tools and strategies to provide the most effective support, ensuring every student achieves reading proficiency. Tune in for a comprehensive guide to making MTSS work for your struggling readers!
