OverviewGrounded in the best current knowledge, this book shows how to implement Response to Intervention (RTI) in middle and high school contexts. Detailed guidelines are presented for teaching reading comprehension, vocabulary, and other aspects of literacy across the content areas, and for providing effective interventions for students who require additional support.

Reed, Wexler, and Vaughn provide a practical guide to RTI implementation in secondary schools. Finally, a resource that can help middle and high schools to be more systematically aggressive about kids' learning. - Timothy Shanahan, University of Illinois at Chicago, USA We all know that the knowledge base on RTI for middle and high school has been fragmented and diffuse. It no longer is. This book candidly synthesizes and weaves together relevant research and information that can inform best practices in RTI at the secondary level. Honest and pragmatic, it should be essential reading. - Russell Gersten, University of Oregon, USA At long last, an RTI resource that addresses the unique needs and challenges of secondary educators.

It features illustrative scenarios and concrete recommendations that can be put to use immediately to plan and implement RTI at the campus or district level. - Tina Angelo, Houston (Texas) Independent School District, USA Author InformationDeborah K.
