Successful Approaches to RTI

Collaborative Practices for Improving K–12 Literacy

Marjorie Y. Lipson and Karen K. Wixson, editors

At last: a resource that shows Response to Intervention in action.

In contrast to existing resources that focus on defining RTI or that take a learning disability identification perspective, this first-of-its-kind book describes successful, evidence-based RTI approaches and then shows them in action in real schools and districts.

Edited by the cochairs of IRA’s RTI Commission, this must-have resource presents collaborative frameworks proven to work in today's classrooms. It offers specific, practical information for general educators—particularly teachers, reading specialists, and literacy coaches.

The action plan and corresponding tools provided can be used to guide RTI efforts in your school and district—from creating the RTI team to assessing readiness for implementation. The book is also ideal for school-based professional development, as well as for teacher education.
