1.Multi-tier system of support (MTSS) / Response to Intervention (RTI):
1. A multi-tier system of support (MTSS) is a framework that is used for supporting the academic and behavioral needs of students. MTSS uses data-based problem solving and decision making to support all student’s needs. This system can be used in one school or in multiple schools throughout a district to help improve the outcomes of students. MTSS consists of having multi-tiered levels of support for students that are at all different levels of intensity to provide a student or a group of students the intervention they need. A MTSS consist of three or four levels where each level increases as the student moves to the next level. If the student’s behavior or academics decrease …show more content…
A teacher knows if RTI/MTSS’s are working by monitoring the students in the classroom. They need to be keeping records of the students learning to see if positive progress is being made. If it is being made, then students should stay at the level or move back to the previous tier. If the student is not making progress, then the general teacher should consult with the special education teacher to get the student into more focused interventions. (Vaughn, S. & Bos, C.S., 2017 pp.62)
5. Teachers can obtain more information on RTI/MTSS from the book that much of the information that was used above came from Sharon Vaughn and Candace S. Bos “Strategies for Teaching Students with Learning and Behavior Problems” by Person Education. All of chapter 3 in the book titled “Response to Intervention and Multi-Tier Systems of Support talks about the effects of using this type of system for behavior and academics. Quick internet search for MTSS or RTI will pop up many different graphics that will help people understand what a multi-tier system of support is and will describe them a bit.

Teachers should use this instructional method in their classrooms because studies have shown that PALS accelerates the reading achievement of students with learning disabilities, low-achieving students as well as average and high- achieving students. A study by (Fuchs, Fuchs, Mathes, & Simmons, 1997) showed that students with learning disabilities, low-achieving students, and average -achieving students in grades 2-6 that participated in PALS scored higher on a number of reading skill compared to people in a control group. Another study by (Saenz, Fuchs, & Fuchs, 2005) it showed that English language learners in grades 3-6 performed better than students in the control group on a number of reading abilities. The last study that I looked at was by (Rafdal 2011) where his results showed that when PALS was used on kindergarteners, that the effectiveness of its use was not only positive on general education students but also on many of the students with disabilities that are included in the general classroom. This study proved that Palls is a very effective method to use in all general education rooms with its effectiveness on many of the children with and without
