Hurry Up and Wait


We have been moving into implementation of RTI at a “hurry up and wait” pace. Our district has pushed teachers to make changes, but we have to pull back at times because there is a lot we aren’t ready or trained for. We have some interventions in place, and even designated intervention times throughout the day by grade level, but this doesn’t always work as seamlessly as it sounds. Many of our students are pulled out for a variety of interventions or an interventionist might have two groups of students in a single grade. These issues mean that many students are still pulled out during core instruction time. Needless to say, we aren’t a perfect example of RTI, but we’re getting there.
