The Educator's Choice for Classroom and Professional Development Resources
There is no doubt that proficiency in reading is essential for success in school and throughout life. Yet far too many students in the United States fail to achieve proficiency in literary. No Child Left Behind (NCLB) was enacted to address this and other problems in education and to make sure that all students learn. The now-familiar law requires states to set challenging academic and achievement standards and conduct annual assessments of all students to ensure that all students are making progress and no child is left behind. It also calls for teachers to utilize effective teaching methods and instructional strategies that are grounded in scientifically based research.
In RTI: The Classroom Connection for Literacy, authors Karen Kemp and Mary Ann Eaton explain how teachers can use scientifically based reading instruction along with Response To Intervention (RTI) to meet the requirements of the law and ensure that all students succeed.
The book
The popularity of RTI: The Classroom Connection for Literacy led the authors to collaborate with Sharon Poole on a similarly structured and equally useful book for teaching elementary-level mathematics, RTI & Math: The Classroom Connection - Estimates Considered, Logic Required, Data Imperative.
