Agenda

Quick overview of Tier 2 interventions Critical Features What Tier 2 does for kids

Tier 2 Coaching Role: Supporting Adults in the Building

Tier 2 systems meetings Tracking Progress and Systems Common errors in Tier 2

Objectives

Explain the idea of systems response Identify common errors in Tier 2

implementation Identify at least 2 additional resources for

Tier 2 implementation

?Think and respond?

What Tier 2 interventions does your school have in place?

For how long have they been doing those interventions?

How much of an expert are you? Could put Jessica to shame! Enough knowledge to be dangerous… I am in the correct room?

10 Ten Critical Features

10 Critical Features of Tier 2 Interventions

1. Intervention linked directly to school wide expectations and/or academic goals.

2. Intervention continuously available for student participation.

3. Intervention is implemented within 3 school days of determining the student is in need of the intervention

4. Intervention can be modified based on assessment and/or outcome data

Critical Features continued

5. Intervention includes structured prompts for what to do in relevant situations.

6. Intervention results in students receiving positive and/or corrective feedback from staff.

7. Intervention includes a school-home communication exchange system at least weekly.

Critical Features continued

8. Orientation process and introduction to materials is provided for students as

they begin the intervention9. Orientation to and materials provided for staff/sub’s/volunteers who have students using the intervention. Ongoing information shared with staff.10. Opportunities to practice new skills are

provided daily.

Where is your school?

If you had to give your school 1 point for every critical feature, what would your score be? For CICO? Social Academic Instructional Group? Other?

Tier 2

Builds on Tier 1Provides increased opportunities for:

Teaching Prompting Reinforcing Monitoring

Increase structure and predictability of the day

MOVE your Brain

How does something like CICO increase structure and predictability of the school day?

Talk with a partner and be prepared to share.

Up the Triangle

• Identify Screening Diagnostic measures /

Teach & Prompt Practice Reinforce

• Monitor Progress Outcomes

Up the Triangle

• More specific goals Subgoals

Importance of Coaching

Facilitation Master ‘time keeper’ (Focus on Efficiency)

Modeling Constantly focusing on building capacity

Prompting/reminding/pre-correcting More than ‘Cheerleading’

Asking the ‘right’ questions Program evaluation

• Ex. It’s not “Did you do the SET?”, it’s “What does your SET data tell you?”

Insufficient Methods for bringing about change

Diffusion/dissemination of information by itself does not lead to successful implementation

Training alone, no matter how well done, does not lead to successful implementation

Policies and funding alone do not lead to successful implementation

Secondary Systems Planning Team Meeting Agenda

Number of youth in CICO (main Tier 2)? Number of youth responding Number of new youth potentially entering

interventionRepeat for all other Tier 2 interventions

S/AIG, Mentoring & Brief FBA/BIPLess than 70% of youth are responding?

Review the integrity of the intervention Make adjustments

Secondary Systems Planning Team Meeting Agenda

Less than 70% of youth are responding? Review the integrity of the intervention Make adjustments:

FIDELITY Check in with facilitator Fidelity check list Observe Coach

Tracking Tier 2 Outcomes & Systems

Student Outcomes: Tracking Tool

Systems Outcomes: Systems Response Tool

Progress Monitoring

1. Teams need to track and monitor interventions: How many students are receiving each intervention?

2. What data are used to monitor each intervention type?

3. How many students are responding to each intervention?

4. What systems are we relying on the most?

Tier 2/Tier 3 Tracking Tool

Look at all Tier 2 (and 3) interventions Increases accountability

Teams have to count # of youth in interventions Data-based decision-rules are necessary (Identify,

Progress-monitor, Exit) Must define ‘response’ to each intervention type/level Shows % of kids who responded to each intervention

Assesses the success rate, or effectiveness, of the interventions themselves

Systems-Response Tool

What are we doing with all of our kids? What interventions / placements are we

relying on the most? Systems-reflection

Common Errors in Tier 2

Throw them all in! Weak Tier 1 No Tier 3

Herculean Hillary Not enough people trained / implementing

What System? Lack of systems to support work

• Team• Training• Coaching

We communicate at lunch in the teacher’s lounge Lack of formal communication method

Q&A

What issues are present in your school?

What questions do you have?
