This one-of-a-kind text explains why RTI is today's best approach
for preventing reading difficulties-and how research on reading
profiles can enhance the power of RTI. For practitioners, the book
provides a complete, evidence-based blueprint for using RTI and
reading profiles in tandem to plan effective core literacy
instruction and help struggling readers in Grades K-6, whether they
have disabilities or issues related to experience (e.g., ELLs,
children from poverty backgrounds). For researchers and
policymakers, the book describes ways to help ensure higher reading
achievement for every student, including improvements in core
reading instruction, use of RTI practices and the Common Core State
Standards, and teacher preparation. READERS WILL understand why RTI
is the best approach for preventing reading difficulties-and why
RTI should be used in identification of learning disabilities learn
how diverse reading problems can be understood in relation to poor
reader profiles discover how to make sound, research-based
decisions about core reading curricula, interventions, and RTI
practices such as universal screening explore the most effective
interventions for key components of reading and language learn to
identify and address word recognition difficulties, comprehension
difficulties, and "mixed" reading problems involving both decoding
and comprehension clarify which skills and knowledge every teacher
of reading should have examine ways to better prepare educators to
teach at-risk readers PRACTICAL MATERIALS: The case studies and
practical examples cover a broad range of reading problems and help
make the latest research findings applicable to everyday practice.
