Intervention Without Progress Monitoring Why are most intervention strategies like pinata parties?

 Monitor Progress regularly and frequently.  Reading ▪ Aimsweb R-CBM weekly in all reading interventions ▪ Analyze both proficiency and rate of growth ▪ Fall/Winter /Spring Universal screening  Math ▪ Aimsweb assessments monthly in math interventions ▪ Pre/post testing by topic in AYR ▪ Fall/Winter /Spring Universal screening ▪ ALEKS automatic assessments  Behavior ▪ SWIS Reports

 Gap analysis using MDE reports and Golden Package  Daily review of high value topics for all students in their core classes  Targeted intervention in math A 2  Study Island Targeted Incentive Program
