Description

Provide targeted instruction to ELLs and other diverse learners!

Many Response to Intervention (RTI) models were developed to identify specific learning disabilities in English-speaking students. When using RTI with culturally and linguistically diverse students, especially non-native English speakers and those with limited English proficiency, educators must look beyond students’ academic performance in reading and mathematics to address complex learning and behavior issues.

This research-based resource provides more than 200 instructional interventions for teaching the growing population of students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds within an RTI framework. Organized by the tiers of RTI, these specific interventions help classroom teachers address students’ cognitive, behavior, literacy, and communication issues at each level. This book features:

A reader-friendly format that allows busy teachers to easily find the interventions they need
Straightforward, concrete directions for using each intervention
Examples from practice and a glossary to aid implementation
RTI for Diverse Learners offers step-by-step guidance for distinguishing between language development and special education needs in diverse students and providing appropriate instruction.
