Miss Tami Mazzella - RTI Process Update

New RTI check list (Green Sheet) will be kept in Tami's Room

RTI Process:
-Work on one concern at a time and # them
-Talk with colleagues (we do a great job with this already)
-Talk with parents
-Consult with interventionists
-Collect data for 7 weeks... check in at 4 weeks to tweak/decide if we are we seeing what we need to be seeing
Contact Tami to set up a RTI time
1st RTI date is Nov.13th

DON'T USE RTI Electronic Tab- Fill out a purple sheet "tracking sheet" to show a record of the information for the year

Continue to fill out a green sheet on a student even if what you are doing in the classroom is working. Fill out the green sheet even if you don't need to present the student to RTI because you have fixed the issue yourself in the classroom. This will provide documentation for the issue you have addressed and resolved

Information to bring to RTI: behavioral- notes, academic notes- letters/sounds/ numbers/ test scores, information shared by parent

Do we want to use Playground/Lunch time referral slips - use in K? Talk it over as a group

Continue modeling the voice levels (1-5), especially in hallways

PCF will be in library on Thurs @ 10 a.m.
