A home file allows parents to keep track of important documents pertaining to their children's development and education.

Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Question 2

Joe has been struggling academically. School A that Joe attends uses a traditional model in which he is given an IQ and achievement measure and if there is a big enough difference between the two scores he is able to receive services. Joe's difference between scores is not large enough so he is unable to receive services and he continues to struggle. Meanwhile at a School B Sally is also struggling. At this school they use the RTI approach. During the second benchmark screening Sally falls well below where she should be. She is put into a small intervention group to work on the skill she is struggling with and that supplements the curriculum. Her teacher tracks her progress and makes adjustments based on that data. By the next benchmark Sally no longer needs intervention support and is gradually removed. Based on this scenario, what is a potential benefit of the RTI approach versus a more traditional approach?

What will be an ideal response?
