Guaranteed to enlighten educators and parents alike, this episode is a deep dive into the world of MTSS, where we break down the essential tiers that frame a student's learning environment. From the all-encompassing Tier 1, which sets the stage with core curriculum and behavior expectations, to Tier 2's targeted strategies for students needing that extra push, we leave no stone unturned. With an emphasis on refining core instruction to enhance support for every learner, particularly in critical areas like phonics and math fluency, this conversation promises to arm you with the insights necessary for building a robust educational foundation. As we progress through the tiers, the spotlight turns to the often-overlooked champions of education: paraprofessionals and aides. Despite the absence of certification, their role in delivering individualized, data-driven support through Tier 3 interventions is instrumental in helping students who are significantly trailing their peers. And while we acknowledge the hurdles educators face, especially in sourcing quality interventions for math and writing, the conversation is imbued with appreciation for these dedicated individuals who often lead the charge in driving student success. Make sure to tune in for a heartfelt tribute to those who shape our learners’ futures, and a sneak peek into our next discussion that aims to dispel common misconceptions about the MTSS framework while celebrating the continuous advancement of our students.

Through in-depth discussion, you'll gain insights into why a one-size-fits-all curriculum is a myth and how we, as a collective, can arm our educators with top-shelf resources, superior teaching techniques, and the kind of training that makes tailoring learning to each unique student a reality.

Next week's promise of demystifying MTSS and its role in special education direction is just the beginning. But for now, let's focus on the here and now—identifying the cracks in the current system and laying down the roadmap for a more robust, effective MTSS that teachers can implement with confidence.

I'm Jessica Curtis, and in this episode, I confront the tangle head-on, dissecting the complexities of MTSS and RTI in schools. Join me as I make the case for these frameworks to be more than mere pathways to special education, advocating for a synergistic relationship where shared insights and strategies lead to student success. With a focus on the parallels between MTSS and special education, I call attention to the importance of data-driven decisions, periodic reviews, and targeted goals, all crucial for meaningful progress. It's a mission to ensure that the commitment schools make to support student learning is not just a promise, but a practice. This conversation is an urgent one, with implications that reach far beyond individual classrooms. As the new year unfolds, it's time to rethink our approach to educational support, aiming for consistency and resource-sharing that can uplift both MTSS and special education. By exploring interventions like the Orton-Gillingham approach, which may serve to elevate all students, we can begin to address the deep-seated issues that leave too many students lagging in basic skills. I'm calling for a year of innovation to combat teacher burnout and reverse the exodus from this critical profession, crafting an educational experience that's as fulfilling for educators as it is for students. Tune in for a candid discussion about shaping an educational future where every learner is equipped for success. Subscribe & Review in iTunes Are you subscribed to my podcast?

הפעל מאוחר יותר הפעל מאוחר יותר רשימות לייק אהבתיSend us a text Obviously I talk a lot about intervention plans, how important they are and how effective they can be…but I didn’t always have a good intervention plan, or quite frankly an intervention plan at all! My first year teaching, I was a special education teacher for elementary and it was quite an adventure. I wasn’t given a curriculum or anything other than a scope and sequence for when different things were going to be taught and told to use that and the very random resources in my classroom to teach my students. There really was no official curriculum for that grade at that time, so the teachers were supposed to work together to plan for what they would do. Unfortunately, the climate in this school was very competitive so the teachers used their own materials, or maybe shared with their one friend, but there really was no overall plan or sharing of materials within the grade level….so I was left really in the dark on what materials or resources my students would be using in their individual classrooms. As a first year teacher, that REALLY made my life difficult. So, I did what new teachers do best….I found free resources wherever I could (this was before Teachers Pay Teachers to give you an idea of how long I’ve been teaching) and I made it work. Guys, it was so bad! I had a general idea for what the kids were supposed to be learning in their classes, and what the IEP goals were, but other than that….I really didn’t know where to start or what to do! I was constantly trying new resources out to see if they worked on this goal or that one, but there really wasn’t a cohesive plan behind what I was trying to do….other than I wanted my students to succeed. And I absolutely wrecked myself trying to make it all work…. It wasn’t until my second year teacher, changing schools and seeing a more cohesive plan or mindset for how interventions could be managed that I was able to pull my poor little ducks in a row and start figuring out my own cohesive plan to provide quality interventions for my students. But man, making that shift changed my entire teaching career, and honestly if I hadn’t made that change I don’t think I would have stayed in teaching past that second year….yeah….having an intervention plan that worked really was and still is THAT important.

The amount of time that this woman spends worrying about her students and finding ways to meet them where they are is, well it’s almost obsessive. She is an extrovert like I have never known before and she really is one of those teachers that somehow always finds a way to make a real connection or relationship with all of her students. Except, when I was talking to her last week, she was so down on herself and when she finally got down to why it was because she just can’t seem to find a way to connect with her students this year. It has been harder since the pandemic closed schools, but this year has been especially difficult for her. She and I talked about how she tries to engage her students in conversations and the best she gets is 1 word answers, and usually it’s grunts. She is losing that spark for teaching because she wants those connections with her students to really enjoy the teaching process, but with how hard she’s working, she just isn’t seeing any results…. We know that students are most disconnected with school and teachers. We also know that this has a negative impact on classroom community, reduces teacher motivation, makes it harder to motivate kids, and obviously impacts academics. The fact is teaching is the art of connection, but how do we do this when the to do lists pile up, we have too many kids, and too little time?

It includes writing and teaching goals. Then, don’t forget to collect data on those goals! Special education teachers need to progress monitor the goals weekly. They also need to report the results to school personnel and parents. Side note-graphs make it easier to report, but that is often an additional step to take. There is so much to managing a caseload! Today, I’m going to share my complete guide to managing a caseload including progress monitoring. Subscribe & Review in iTunes Are you subscribed to my podcast?

Send us a text They say that special education teachers are a “different breed” and maybe they are right, whoever “they” is. The fact is that special education teachers juggle so much every day…every hour in reality, that it is an absolute miracle that any of them make it through a week, let alone a school year. Between planning and teaching highly individualized lessons, preparing all of the materials, providing modifications or accommodations throughout the day, corresponding with other teachers, parents, specialists, and administrators, and planning for, scheduling, and writing IEPs….special education teachers are constantly buried under all the things they have to do… Something has to give, something is going to get forgotten, unless they can get a little bit of help. Today, let’s talk about how a caseload manager can make a huge difference in keeping special education teachers both sane and on top of all of their responsibilities.

Welcome to the Reaching Struggling Learners podcast. Today we are going to talk about how to incorporate phonics skills throughout the school day and how to improve your phonics small group time to be the best that it can be! Phonics small group time tends to be either the best or worst part of many teachers day. When small group time is run well, the transitions are seamless, and the students really get a lot of important intervention time. When it isn’t run well, the frustration is REAL. So, what can we do to make sure that phonics small group time is effective and doesn’t make us rip our hair out? Subscribe & Review in iTunes Are you subscribed to my podcast?

Send us a text Last week we talked about the difference between phonological awareness and phonics. This week, we are going to extend that conversation into talking about how to set up and manage phonological awareness small groups. You may be thinking that those skills are such baby skills, why would anyone dedicate an entire small group time to them? That’s a good question, which we definitely will talk about today! Phonological awareness skills are the foundation to reading skills. They lay the groundwork for phonics. So yes, phonological awareness is important to teach and for students to master. But, dedicating an entire small group time block daily to it? That seems a little excessive doesn’t it? I will say, unless you are teaching really young students or students who are very far below grade level in reading, I don’t think that having a dedicated 30 minute daily phonological awareness small group just for phonological awareness is needed or necessary. Actually, if you are teaching really young students, I hope you aren’t having a dedicated 30 minute small group ever….I’d hate to try to keep really young kids attention for more than 15 minutes on anything academic…..

Make sure you check out that episode, if you’ve haven’t already. This week, let’s extend that discussion to talk about how we can track a caseload, or classroom’s worth of SMART goals…because let’s face it, teachers do not have enough time to do all the things on their plates, so we need to figure out ways to simplify and streamline what we are doing so that we can get back to teaching!

Send us a text When students read in class, do they struggle with pronouncing words correctly? I don’t mean articulation errors….as in the students have a really hard time saying s specific sound….I mean when they read words, do you know what word they mean, but they are putting too much or too little emphasis on certain pieces of the words? This can really mess with the fluidity of reading, and make a good story or piece of text terrible to listen to. The first few months of hearing my older son read were such a mixture of pride and wanting to stick earplugs in while he read….seriously….there is a fluidity with the way that we pronounce words and sentences….without the fluidity, listening to someone reading is so ugh!

As in, connecting words were missing, or things like that. What about when looking at their writing and all the words are smooshed together with no spaces between words. Yes, part of these things could be due to other issues, such as a language impairment or poor handwriting. But another issue could be that the student is struggling with phonological awareness. In today’s podcast, we are going to start talking about what may be the most basic part of phonological awareness: discriminating between words in sentences.

Phonological awareness is a big concept that includes many skills that kids need before they get into phonics and reading. In this first episode of the phonological awareness series, we talk about what exactly is phonological awareness, and why teachers should teach it, even in upper grades to see some big educational impact!

Send us a text Kindergarten and first grade teachers know the pain with this skill set. If you aren’t a lower grades teacher, just know that one of the skills that these teachers have to teach is asking students to take a word and change a particular sound in the word to make a different word. The processing that this takes is huge...and struggling learners can really struggle with this skill! Today, we are going to talk about how this skill impacts more advanced skills, and what we can do to help this not be a nightmare skill to teach!

Send us a text A few months ago, this student was unable to sound out words. He was completely reliant on a word bank to communicate through writing anything other than basic sight words he had memorized. But not now! We’ve been working on segmenting phonemes in words, and it has made a world of difference for him and his ability to write! It really is the little things that make teaching fun, isn’t it? On the podcast this week, we are keeping on with the phonemic awareness series, and you guessed it, we are talking about segmenting phonemes. This skill is super helpful in a lot of ways, and I'm excited to share some ideas to teach it today! Subscribe & Review in iTunes Are you subscribed to my podcast?

הפעל מאוחר יותר הפעל מאוחר יותר רשימות לייק אהבתיSend us a text Two years ago, I sat in an MTSS meeting with a wonderful kindergarten teacher who was working her tail off to teach her students how to read. Her class overall was pretty low coming into kindergarten, and a small group of these students, even after months of work, just could not seem to blend the letter sounds to make words. This poor teacher was in tears trying to figure out what else to do. Have you ever had students who just seemed to struggle forever on a seemingly basic phonics skill? I know that I have. It seems like you’re beating your head against the wall every time that group of students comes around. But, what if we are looking at the wrong skill? Do your students have difficulty blending sounds in words? We know that a lot of students struggle with phonemic awareness, but what do we do about this? This week on the Reaching Struggling Learners Podcast, we are going to talk about blending sounds to form words, and how this skill impacts reading in a big way!

Send us a text Do you think of phonemic awareness as baby skills? Or skills that are too easy for your students, who REALLY need to focus on real reading skills like phonics? So many schools put their main focus on phonics and completely ignore phonemic awareness skills...but what if I told you that these skills really DO make a big impact on student learning? What if I told you a shocking number of students come in to schools without strong phonemic awareness skills and it impacts their entire educational career??? Today, on the Reaching Struggling Learners Podcast, we are talking about what phonemic awareness is and why we need to dig deep into student skill deficits and often times that means starting right here.

Today, we are going to talk about how we can teach those skills the students need most in order to close achievement gaps….even when those skills are years below grade level. The vast majority of our students with special needs are lacking or weak in foundational skills, which is impacting all more advanced learning.

What can we do to get more involvement from that second group of parents? Today, let’s talk about how we can get more parents actively involved in IEP meetings. In this episode, I'll be sharing several ideas I've used over the years to encourage more active parent involvement in IEP meetings. Subscribe & Review in iTunes Are you subscribed to my podcast?

Send us a text Have you ever sat with your coworkers and discussed how awesome it would be if parents could or would work with children at home? I know I have many times. Today we are going to talk about some ways that teachers can help parents understand the interventions they are providing to students, and how they can support the students at home. If we can get more buy-in from parents, we can make bigger, faster gains in student learning. Are you subscribed to my podcast? If you’re not, I want to encourage you to do that today.

There is one conversation that has not been widely had, but I think is vital to the advancement of struggling learners. Today, I want to discuss an important topic for struggling learners, and all learners in reality….the lack of research-based quality curriculum and the impact it is having on the learning in our education system in the United States. Teachers are often expected to buy or create their own curriculum, and are given the responsibility to differentiate that curriculum….in addition to all of the other expectations and pressures placed upon them. The education system is using cop-outs to save money and it is negatively impacting teachers and students, especially those who are already at a disadvantage. The education system is only supporting about ⅓ of the students, and this needs to change. I discuss this and what we can do to change this situation in today’s podcast.

But as teachers, we are aware that the stress we feel is nothing compared to what many of our students have dealt with or are dealing with right now. Today, I want to take a short break from progress monitoring and talk about a very real issue that teachers and students are struggling to deal with in this remote learning environment….trauma. This is a topic that hits close to home for me. It is not a comfortable topic for me, but I think that it is one that needs to be talked about, especially in today’s reality….. Trauma impacts students and classrooms around the world. Students struggle to regulate their emotions and their outbursts can be downright dangerous. In this episode, we talk about actionable steps teachers can take to support students who have experienced trauma.

Send us a text In Episode 4 of the Reaching Struggling Learners Podcast, we talked about RTI and Tier 1 and 2 interventions. In this episode, we expanded on what we talked about last week and moved into what makes Tier 3 interventions different and how to implement them in school setting. We discuss different ways that Tier 3 could be approached, and how teams arrive at moving a student to Tier 3. Finally, we discuss what could happen if a student continues to be unsuccessful, despite Tier 3 interventions. One major take-away from the episode is that RTI is not a path to special education, though some educators and parents may feel this way. Through the appropriate use of RTI, many students may be able to avoid being labeled as needing special education services. Subscribe & Review in iTunes Are you subscribed to my podcast?

Send us a text I heard a great analogy several years ago about education and teaching, which has struck a nerve with me. I have come to realize that teaching is a great deal like building a house. Our students need a firm, well-built foundation, on which all later learning can be built. In previous years, teaching was more tailored to the individual student, and while I value this individualization, I have no wish to go back to the one-room schoolhouse with 40 students! But, I do think that an in-depth analysis about why students struggle in school, and why this struggle snowballs as they move through the grade levels is needed. In this episode, I discuss this analogy, give a silly example of what would happen if we treated construction of houses like we do the education of a student, and why I think progress monitoring and the RTI/MTSS process could be important in improving student outcomes in today's school environment.

So I started out by creating resources to help with this. In working with high schoolers I saw how many students were graduating with low reading levels. So I changed my focus to helping struggling learners throughout the education system through providing materials, resources and support to teachers and parents through the RTI/MTSS process. I am starting this podcast to help teachers and parents learn about the strategies they can use to help their children or students be successful.
