Teams should answer these questions to help guide the most appropriate intervention for students who are not responsive to our instruction:

How will the sufficiency and effectiveness of the core program be monitored over time?
Have improvements to the core program been effective?
For which students is it sufficient, insufficient?
What specific supplemental and intensive intervention is needed?
How will specific supplemental and intensive intervention be delivered?
How will the effectiveness of supplemental and intensive intervention be monitored?
How will we determine which students need to move to another level of instruction (from three tiers)?
