It is important to get a copy of the protocol for intervention on your campus. It varies from district to district; school to school. Know what to expect as you proceed thru the steps. Intervention is hard enough without major surprises. Ask how long each stage of intervention lasts. Intervention is meant to be short term. It doesn’t last for the whole year. Get specifics as to how to transition a child from tier to tier.

Save samples of all resources you used for each student’s intervention. Keep a record for yourself and turn in paperwork to guidance counselors and/or administration. Don’t turn in anything without first making a copy for yourself. Important paperwork sometimes goes missing and it’s important to have documentation for future meetings.

3.) Use some sort of assessment tool – Intervention is the process of closely monitoring the learning rate and level of understanding of individual students. Administer a weekly assessment to collect performance data. You’ll be asked to provide graphs and charts illustrating how the child performed during the intervention process. Keep the assessments short (5 or less questions) and aligned to specific standards.

Intervention is a vital part of student development. Use these tips to help you navigate thru the intervention process more effectively.
