level
The bottom of
the pyramid that
represents
instruction given
to students
without learning
problems
Instruction delivered to
all students using
research-based curricula
and differentiation in the
general education
classroom. Incorporates
universal screening,
continuous progress
monitoring, and
outcome measures or
summative assessments.

NCRTI recommends different evidence
standards across intervention levels.
Research-based curricula
• Recommended for
primary prevention
across subjects.
• Components have been
researched and found to
be generally effective.
• Curriculum materials
have not been rigorously
evaluated as a package.
Evidence-based intervention
• Recommended for
secondary and tertiary
prevention
• Materials evaluated using
rigorous research design
• Evidence of positive
effects for students who
received the intervention
(NCRTI, 2010)

PRIMARY PREVENTION LEVEL
National Center on

12
Primary Prevention Level
 FOCUS: ALL students
 INSTRUCTION: District curriculum and instructional
practices that are research based; aligned with state
or district standards; and incorporate differentiated
instruction
 SETTING: Regular education classroom
 ASSESSMENTS: Screening, continuous progress
monitoring, and outcome measures or summative
assessments
National Center on
Response to Intervention
13
Primary Prevention Focus
 ALL students
 Includes students with disabilities, learning
differences, or language barriers
 Increase access through
• Differentiated instruction
• Practices that are linguistically and culturally responsive
• Accommodations
• Modifications
National Center on
Response to Intervention
14
Primary Level Instruction
 Research-based curriculum materials for students
(including subgroups)
 Implementation fidelity
 Articulation of teaching and learning within and
across grades
 Differentiation of instruction based on data
 Ongoing professional development

What Is Core Curriculum in RTI?
 Course of study deemed critical
 Usually mandatory for all students of a school or a
school system
 Often instituted at the elementary and secondary
school levels by local school boards, departments of
education, or other administrative agencies charged
with overseeing education
National Center on
Response to Intervention
16
What Are Differentiated Learning
Activities?
 Offers students in the same class different teaching
and learning strategies based on
• Student assessment data and knowledge of student
readiness
• Learning preferences
• Language and culture
National Center on
Response to Intervention
17
What Are Differentiated Learning
Activities?
 Involves
• Mixed instructional groupings,
• Team teaching,
• Peer tutoring,
• Learning centers, and
• Accommodations to ensure that all students have access to the
instructional program
 Is NOT the same as providing more intensive interventions
to students with learning disabilities
National Center on
Response to Intervention
18
Primary Prevention Setting
 Regular education classroom or similar setting
 Various grouping strategies (examples):
•
•
•
Whole class
Cooperative learning groups
Peer dyads
National Center on
Response to Intervention
19
Primary Prevention Assessment
 Universal screening to determine students’ current
level of performance
 Continuous progress monitoring to confirm risk
status and monitor progress of at-risk students
 Outcome measures or summative assessments for
accountability
National Center on
Response to Intervention
20
Progress Monitoring and Screening
Data Within Primary Prevention
 Screening data
• Identify students who need additional assessment or
instruction.
• Evaluate the effectiveness of primary prevention for all
students.
 Progress monitoring data
• Confirm and disconfirm risk.

26
Secondary Prevention Level
 FOCUS: Students identified through screening as at
risk for poor learning outcomes
 INSTRUCTION: Targeted, supplemental instruction
delivered to small groups
 SETTING: Regular education classroom or other
regular education location within the school
 ASSESSMENTS: Progress monitoring, diagnostic
National Center on

27
Secondary Prevention Focus
 Students identified through screening as at risk for
poor learning outcomes
 Typically 15%-20% of entire population
National Center on

28
Secondary Level Instruction
 Evidence based
 Aligns with and supports core instruction
 Implementation fidelity based on developer
guidelines
 Delivered by well-trained staff in optimal group sizes
 Decisions are based on valid and reliable data and
criteria are implemented accurately See NCRTI
 Supplements core instruction

29
Secondary Prevention Setting
 Regular education classroom or similar setting
 Adult-led instruction
 Small group rather than whole class
National Center on

30
Secondary Prevention Assessment
 Decisions about responsiveness to intervention
• Are based on reliable and valid progress monitoring
data.
• Reflect judgment based on the slope of improvement
or final status at the end of the intervention period.
 Decision-making rules are applied accurately and
consistently
National Center on
Response to Intervention
31
Secondary Prevention Assessment
 Progress monitoring
•
Monitor student response to secondary instruction.
•
Evaluate the efficacy of the secondary system.
•
Conduct at least monthly.
 Diagnostic assessment
•
Match students’ needs to interventions.
National Center on
Response to Intervention
32
Secondary Prevention Goal Setting
 End-of-year benchmarking
 National norms for weekly rate of improvement
(slope)

Progress Monitoring Data Within
Secondary Prevention
 Progress monitoring data
• Determine response to secondary interventions using
 The four-point rule.
 Trend-line analysis.
• Compare efficacy of secondary interventions.

• Most students benefit from secondary interventions, but a
small percent will need more intensive, individualized
instruction (tertiary)
• Implementation fidelity for interventions and databased decision rules
