I read with interest your comment about the administration of RTI in your building. My understanding of RTI is that it is a regular education initiative so I am wondering why your team isn't made up of regular education teachers, literacy specialists, math specialists etc. I would love to hear from other educators about who leads RTI in your schools and who administers the interventions.

So, we convinced our principal to switch to AIMSweb for next year. They have a comprehension part. They also have math screenings. I would say that the administration of RTI is a combination between the school psychologist, principal, and special ed teacher. I should also probably tell you that I'm in a small district. Our elementary building consists of prek - 5th grade students. The total number of students is 305, so needless to say we have a lot of contact with other teachers and students. _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
