Accountability
The work we do along with the
results are transparent in the visual
of the data wall. We all hold each
other accountable for the work we
do.
We use the data wall as the big
picture – adjusting whole group
instruction as well as individual
students – intervention groups

Interventions
Layered Intervention
Classroom teachers will be
responsible for providing the first
layer of interventions for students
An interventionist (any person who
has been trained in providing
interventions)
Comprehensive Intervention Model
(CIM)
 Intervention schedules are developed
collaboratively during intervention team
meetings and are based on data
(monthly)
 Students are selected for intervention
based on their performance in the
classroom and careful assessment of
reading and writing
 A literacy Plan is developed for each
child receiving intervention
CIM continued
Students selected to participate in
small group intervention
Placement assessments are used
for the purposes of identifying a
child’s specific areas of strengths
and weaknesses
An intervention wall is also
developed to track the number of
students in groups, progress and
transparency
CIM Continued
After placement, progress of all
intervention students is discussed
each month with a team consisting
of the building coach,
interventionist, classroom teacher
and principal.
Four Tiers of Intervention
 Tier 1 is an intervention provided daily
by a classroom teacher
 Tier 2 intervention is provided in a small
group with a specific focus. The
recommended group size is 3-4
students.
 Tier 3 intervention is provided in a small
group of 1:2, or 1:1 (Reading Recovery)
 Tier 4 is a Special Education intervention
and may be considered long term. The
recommended group size is 1:1 through
1:3
CIM K-5 Group Interventions

 Guided Reading Plus
 Writing Aloud
