I have been in the field of education for 27 years. I love what I do everyday; it is truly a passion and I can not imagine doing anything else! In 2013, I retired as the gifted, special services, and elementary curriculum director for a public school district! I design curricular materials anywhere from Pre-K to 8th grade, and I must say I am partial to classroom/behavior management and English Language Arts.

This resource is a must have for giving a solid description of the three tiers of instruction. It is full of infographics that aid in the explanation for a refresher session on each tier. The training slides progress from the programs, methodologies, and strategies that we specifically use at tier one to ensure high quality instruction to the intensiveness of tier III and the possibility of progressing to a child-study through the MET team. Next, an in-depth look is given to tier two and specific strategies that help to intervene in specific deficits. Then, a look at tier III is investigated and discussed. This training is meant to take the participant through each tier looking at strategies, decision-making skills, and timelines for best practice. This training can be used in a focused faculty meeting, a professional development session, or in a smaller professional learning community as a specific focus group strengthens their process in Response to Intervention!
