Assisting Students Struggling with Reading – IES/WWC
The goal of this practice guide is to formulate specific and coherent evidence-based recommendations for use by educators addressing the challenge of reducing the number of children who fail to learn how to read proficiently by using “response to intervention” as a means of both preventing reading difficulty and identifying students who need more help. This is called Response to Intervention (RtI). The guide provides practical, clear information on critical RtI topics and is based on the best available evidence as judged by the panel.
