Case: Retention Mr. A recently attended a faculty meeting where they presented current educational research. Based on this research, retention was stated as being one of the least effective ways to help a student. Mr. A was shocked because he has several students in his class whom he is not sure how they were promoted. Sally is in the third grade, but performs on a kindergarten level. She cannot read, or even write her name. Mr. A is only told to differentiate in order to best meet Sally's needs. Mr. A differentiates his heart out, but knows that when spring comes along, the mandated state standardized test will not be differentiated in the slightest. How can Mr. A most effectively help Sally in order to to better prepare her for fourth grade? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Hopefully by now this student is being survey through RTI, and if not this needs to happen immediately. This student needs to be moving through the tiers and accommodations need to be implemented and her progress needs to be monitored and if an intervention is not working it needs to be modified or possibly she would need to move to the next tier and eventually be tested. Once a student has an IEP it can include teasing modifications. |
