Mapping Stage
Mapping Stage
During this stage, members of the team will be assigned to develop different sections of the Resource Map using the resources gathered from Step 1. The sections will be developed using the appropriate worksheet to explore details of proper implementation and support. Each section will then be shared with the entire team in preparation to organize and share with school staff.
Estimated Time: Approximately 90 - 120 minutes
Tasks:
Identify Resources in your School
Which hidden resources (untapped skills) of staff members, families, and students are present in your school and community?
What are the limitations and/or gaps?
Are members of school community aware of the current resources available? (school and larger community)
What additional programs/activities could school staff, families, and/or students benefit from?
Identify Resources outside your School
How well does your school’s goals and needs compare with the resources currently available?
Which resources are available in your community that could support members of the school community?
Are there areas in which your school could collaborate with community organizations (share space, mentoring, etc.) to provide additional resources to members of the community?
Resource Mapping Tool: The Workbook
Each sheet in the workbook can be shared with and managed by various team members. Once completed, the finalized resource map that is shared with staff. Identify persons to be responsible of each worksheet to encourage management of health of each intervention/support.

A description of each sheet enclosed in the book can be found below. Keep in mind, the last two sheets are suggested, but not mandatory to the process. Please use the last two sheets (highlighted in blue print) as a way to further organize resources that will be added to the appropriate sheet.
ELA/Math Classroom Focused Resources/Supports
As tiered interventions are identified, keep in mind "good teaching" and differentiation are Tier 1. In addition, small group is the vehicle for an intervention, and not the intervention itself. When you are defining the interventions for Tier 2, keep in mind that these are programs/supports that are in addition to the Core Curriculum. These are additional and intentional supports given to students based on data, and the data will help the team determine if the intervention should stop, continue, or become more intense through a Tier 3 plan, or SST.
Attendance Resources/Supports
A variety of Tier 1 and Tier 2 interventions and supports are needed for a strong Attendance Program. The key is early intervention, consistency, and options. As a result, the supports provided in Tier 1 and Tier 2 must be be implemented quickly and with fidelity to keep the numbers for each support manageable.
SEL and Behavior Resources/Supports
Behavioral and SEL supports are captured here. Keep in mind that the schoolwide Behavioral/SEL program is Tier 1. As students are not not successful, many options for targeted supports should be available. This is a great opportunity to organize the supports in groups as well as pulling in community resources. There should be many options to support students based on what students are motivated to participate in.
Family Community Engagement Resources/Supports
As you focus on Community Engagement Resources, this sheet will help you identify resources that support families, and those that support students. Keep in mind to think of the vision of how you want the school to engage with all stake holders as you develop resources and fill in gaps that is demonstrated by needs of your families.
School Personnel Resources/Supports
Optional Worksheet: The purpose of this sheet is to capture the many School Resource Personnel Staff that enter into the building. This can be a great tool school teams can use to identify which staff members can be used to support other areas based on their area of expertise and schedule of availability.
Community Resources/Supports
Optional Worksheet: For schools that have many strong partnerships with community organizations, school teams can use this sheet to organize them all in one place. This sheet can be used to identify which community resources can be used to support other areas of need throughout the Resource Map.
