Progress Monitoring
Progress monitoring is the essential process of collecting data to determine if the intervention is working. Without it, how will we know if students are mastering the skills we are targeting? However, progress monitoring should only occur when a student has received intervention. Schools should not be collecting data if the student has not received consistent intervention. Progress monitoring probes are usually CBMs that are quick and easy to administer so instruction is not wasted on continuous assessing. It's very important to note that progress monitoring in Tier 2 and Tier 3 will always be on the student's instructional level. If we collect on-grade level data for students in Tier 2 and Tier 3 who may be multiple years behind in their development, it will not give teachers a true indicator of growth. Benchmarking will be on-grade level so teams can determine the specific gap based on standards.
Progress Monitoring Process
Progress Monitoring Process
The initial step in data collection should occur with your screener so teams can determine gaps. Based on the screener, the team will define a goal and create a plan to address the area of concern and implement the intervention. While the student is receiving their daily intervention, teachers/interventionists will collect progress monitoring data to determine if the intervention is successful. Teachers should establish goals (realistic) and continue with the intervention until the student has reached their goal based on the data collected from progress monitoring probes.
Tier 2 Progress monitoring
Tier 2 Progress monitoring
Monitoring in Tier 2 will be on the student's instructional level.
Monitoring is usually completed with CBMs bi-weekly. Diagnostics are also considered part of progress monitoring data.
Data is collected only when a student has received their intervention.
Establishing individual goals should be assigned to ensure students are meeting their target.
Tier 3 Progress monitoring
Tier 3 Progress monitoring
Monitoring in Tier 3 will be on the student's instructional level.
Monitoring is usually completed with CBMs weekly to bi-weekly.
Data is collected only when a student has received their intervention.
Establishing individual goals must be assigned to ensure students are meeting their target.
Progress Monitoring using MAP Fluency
Progress Monitoring using MAP Fluency
Students in K-1 can use MAP Reading Fluency to progress monitor, along with upper grades for oral reading only. Instructions on how to monitor are provided but it is recommended to use the probes that are built into your screening tool.
