Synopsis
RTI in Math: Practical Guidelines for Elementary Teachers addresses a growing demand for implementation of response to intervention (RTI) procedures in mathematics education. RTI is used to ensure a successful learning experience for all students by targeting specific areas where students struggle and eliminating threats to learning and development. Drawing upon years of experience in mathematics education and RTI, the authors provide a detailed map of the RTI process, beginning with an overview of RTI research, general procedures, and its potential for application in mathematics. They analyze common student difficulties in both early and upper-elementary math, from basic number sense to complex problem-solving skills, and they apply a three-tier RTI model to the general education classroom. This resource offers guidance through each stage of the RTI process, extensive tools for teacher reflection and growth, and discussion of support strategies beyond the classroom. It also includes a variety of assessment materials, research-based instructional strategies, and numerous case-studies of RTI implementation.

Review
Given that all teachers must use their own personal talents to produce the most effective instructional programs, this little book provides readers with a plethora of ideas from which to choose those strategies that would work best for them. While setting the stage for the current elementary school mathematics instruction scene, the latest pedagogical ideas by well known researchers are also presented. --Alfred S. Posamentier, dean of the School of Education, Mercy College, New York (as of August 1st, 2010)
It is information all teachers need to read and implement in their regular classrooms. The strategies are an absolute must for all teachers to utilize and they will benefit all students. The examples of RTI cases and how to implement the different questioning techniques in conferencing are an essential part of the book. Teachers always what to see examples and how strategies are used. The research grounding this book is excellent and up-to-date. I would highly recommend this book to every teacher! --Gale Yanish, elementary math specialist, Sage Elementary School, Elko, Nevada
