Western Governors University (WGU) EDUC4211 C909 Elementary Reading Methods and Interventions Practice Exam

When students do not make sufficient progress in Tier 2 of the Response to Intervention (RTI) framework, they typically move to Tier 3, where they receive more intensive instruction. This transition is grounded in the RTI model's focus on providing targeted support based on a student’s specific needs and their response to earlier interventions. In Tier 3, instruction is often delivered in smaller groups or through individualized support, closely monitoring the student’s progress to determine the effectiveness of the intervention. This tiered approach ensures that students receive the support necessary to help them improve their reading skills and overall academic performance before considering other options.

The RTI framework emphasizes a systematic approach to identifying and addressing learning difficulties through increasing levels of intervention intensity, which helps educators make informed decisions regarding a student's educational path.
