MTSS for Teachers

What is my role as a teacher?

Best practices for teachers who have a student concern: 

• Start by reviewing this MTSS Intervention Plan Fact Sheet! The fact sheet outlines the process and which students might benefit from an MTSS intervention plan. 

• This MTSS Student Intervention Plan Checklist is the best next step! It is so important that data is collected on the student concern, attempted interventions, student strengths, student motivating factors, etc. are all considered. This checklist is an extremely helpful tool prior to meeting with the MTSS team, and then reviewing with the whole team. 

• Developing a plan: most MTSS student intervention plans start with core teachers. Being a part of the intervention development stage helps in identifying areas of concern, SMART goals, supports, progress monitoring, etc. 

• MTSS Fidelity Check should be reviewed consistently after developing a plan. This insures that we are providing evidence based interventions, there are qualified interventionists, time built into the schedule to make sure students are recieving interventions etc. Adjustments can be made after interventions begin in order to make sure we are meeting the fidelity checklist!
