Tier 2 Instruction
For 15 to 25 percent of students, focused instruction within the general education
classroom setting is not enough. These students require supplemental instruction in
addition to the standard classroom instruction and curriculum.
The supplemental instruction in Tier 2 is designed to meet the needs of these students by
providing additional individual or small group instruction. This may include technology-
assisted instruction to support and reinforce skills taught by the classroom teacher.
Tier 2 interventions are successful when:
•
Specific weaknesses are identified using assessment data
•
Measurable goals are written to address weaknesses
•
Strategies and interventions are implemented to address specific weaknesses
•
Student progress toward goals is monitored using achievement data
•
Interventions are adjusted based on student achievement data
