  1. What is an Intervention? Intervention versus accommodations and modifications

  2. Intervention Defined • Academic or behavior interventions are strategies or techniques used to teach a new skill, build fluency in a skill, or encourage the application of existing skills to a new situation. • Implemented beyond the core instruction

  3. What does it look like? • Supplemental Intervention (Tier 2 - ex. students in yellow) • MTSS Model recommends 30 minutes of targeted intervention beyond the core for supplemental intervention • Small groups of 3 to 5 students focusing on the same skill • Intensive Intervention (Tier 3 - ex. students in red) • MTSS Model recommends 60 minutes of intervention beyond the core for intensive intervention (kids in the red) • Small groups of 2 to 3 students or one-on-one

  4. Examples of Intervention • Reading Fluency • General Academics, Reading Comprehension, Math, Study & Organization, Writing • Math intervention using Khan Academy (next slide) • Enrichment assignments for higher students • Re-teaching beyond core instruction such as chunking (presenting information again but in smaller increments) • Remember re-teaching only counts as an intervention is you are teaching information in a different way than how it was taught the first time.

  5. Reteaching & Practice using Khanacademy.org

  6. Accommodations and Modifications These are not considered interventions but are commonly mistaken as such

  7. Accommodation or modification? • Accommodations are changes in how a student accesses information and demonstrates learning. • Do not substantially change the instructional level, content, or performance criteria • Changes are made in order to provide a student with equal access to learning and an equal opportunity to show what he or she knows and can do. • Modifications are changes in what a student is expected to learn. • The changes are made to provide a student with opportunities to participate meaningfully and productively along with other students in classroom and school learning experiences

  8. Accommodations Modifications Modified work load or length of assignments/tests Projects instead of written reports Reworded questions in simpler language Alternative tests/assignments at their level such as lower level spelling test Simplifying or limiting the amount of information a student is expected to learn • Preferential seating • Graphic Organizers • Use of manipulatives • Have student restate what was said • Use of a study carrel • Quiet corner/setting to calm down or complete assignments • Study Guides • Visual Schedule • Oral testing • Untimed tests • Read Aloud
