I thought Tier 3 instruction was only for special education students. ?

During Tier 2 intervention, the teacher assesses the students’ growth on taught skills to keep an eye on their progress. Results from progress monitoringAdministered frequently throughout instruction, an assessment used to determine whether students are making adequate progress and to determine whether instruction needs to be adjusted. tools drive the decisions to continue in Tier 2, adjust instruction, or to increase the level of support by moving to Tier 3 instruction.
This is evident with RIMPs for grades K-4. Teachers must provide documentation of how they are providing Tier 2 support for students who did not reach benchmark level on the iReady diagnositic.

Content: Adjusting a topic and resources based on what the students need to learn. For example: When teaching a unit on life cycles, you might bring in a text set written for different levels and interests.Process: Choosing tasks and strategies that help students make sense of their learning. For example: You might provide a graphic organizer for one small group to support their reading of a text while another group listens to the text read aloud. Projects: Giving students different types of assignments to demonstrate their learning. For example: You ask students to do a report by writing a summary, designing a narrated PowerPoint, or creating a book trailer with illustrations.Learning Environment: Designing a classroom that engages and supports learning. For example: You create flexible seating options so students can choose a preferred working space.
This should be a class for students in college of education. This is the foundation for which good teaching develops! Especially if you want to reach those students on Tier 2 and Tier 3. I am constantly helping teachers find ways to let my students show them what they have learned - verbally rather than written for example. Some teachers don't want to take the time for it though

differentiate instruction to meet the diverse needs within their classroom, including students with disabilities, English language learners, and students who may struggle behaviorally and academically.
This is a difficult task, especially in schools with tough behaviors such as ours. But teachers need to be held accountable for delivering differentiated instruction. As an I.S. the teachers often say, "Oh, he's Ms. Bauer's kids so she has to do it." Small groups must be a vital part of each teachers' teaching!

The science on how our brains learn to read
The study shows how children's brains develop and prepare to read so why do we push kindergarten students to read, when clearly their brains are not ready for such acts of learning.
