The Response to Intervention initiative has risen to the top of today’s instructional agenda and yet it is a process that is unfamiliar terrain for many teachers. To help teachers acquire a fuller understanding of the complexity of response to intervention designs, literacy researcher and best-selling author Dick Allington offers clear recommendations to guide classroom teachers in designing response to instruction (RtI) programs such that struggling readers will develop their reading proficiencies to match those of their achieving peers. Unlike any other book on the topic, Dick Allington provides a research-base that supports closing the reading achievement gap along with implications this has for designing RTI programs. In addition, Dick provides a comprehensive discussion of the factors that inhibit poor, disabled, and second-language learners from achieving and offers a number of research-based instructional strategies and routines for turning struggling readers into achieving readers. Teachers will be inspired and confident to design response to instruction programs!

Well worth the read!

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2010

Verified Purchase

My school switched over to a RTI model two years ago, and I have struggled a bit with it ever since. I found that overall my reading achievement actually declined for my classes in both years. This issue resulted primarily from a significant number (almost 50%)of my students being pulled out at various times throughout the day to receive reading support along with lost instructional time due to the time investment of "dibling" a large number of students in the class weekly. Additionally, this corresponded to a new reading series being implemented that had minimal independent reading in the program and other inherent weaknesses. At the end of this year I knew I needed to seek out some ideas of how to better incorporate the RTI model in my classroom.

I purchased the book hoping to figure out why I was struggling with achievement levels more after a flurry of interventions were initiated. In the book it explained almost perfectly many of the issues that I am experiencing and also offered suggestions on how to alleviate some of the struggles. In some ways it was a relief to read why the challenges were present, but with that came suggestions that are difficult to implement. (For example, purchasing books in social studies that will address all of the different reading levels instead of using the textbook.) Overall, I now feel that I have a far better understanding of how reading is impacted in my classroom as a result of RTI and also a host of strategies that I am looking forward to implementing. I also recommended it to the principal as it was worthy of his attention as well.

At the end of the book there are book club questions that would help if your school runs a professional development type book club.

I highly recommend this book!

If you already have some knowledge of differentiated instruction, you will concede early on that poor Jeremy has the wrong book. I recommend you skim but still recommend you read. Too many educators have not been educated about RtI.

Great Book!

Richard Allington offers suggestions for improving on your reading interventions. As always, he offers valuable and practical research for coming up with a plan to use with your slower readers. I always get so much from his books and this no exception. If you like to read research that is explained in "plain English" and you do not need a doctorate degree to understand it, this is the book you should buy.

If you are just starting RTI or are already into it, this book will help you clarify your goals. I was looking to make some adjustments to our support program in the coming year and Allington confirmed everything I was thinking. It is a must read for all administrators and teachers who are involved in this approach.

Richard Allington has been around for a long time in the reading world, and that's because he knows his stuff!! With RtI fully implemented across the county, it is important to understand what that means for students, teachers, and parents. This puts it clearly. Highly recommend.
