6 Standard Protocol Scenario I Perla, a 3 rd grader, can decode and has no phonemic issues but her fluency levels and comprehension levels were in the 20th %ile compared to other students at her grade level. Perla had been using Open Court Reading for her first three years, which is research based The reading specialist, Dr. Drako, and Mrs. Drewry recommended continuing Open Court, but to also using a CBM measurement with two minute reads for the next six week period. Tier I intervention With reading specialist observations and progress monitoring, there was little gain 30 wcpm. Dr. Drako, the reading specialist, recommended to Mrs. Drewry that Perla begin a tier II intervention using Read Naturally (Read Naturally, Inc., 2006, St. Paul, MN). The curriculum had been scientifically validated and approved for RTI intervention. Perla used the software version of Read Naturally for 6 weeks. Perla s fluency levels went from an average of 30 wcpm to 45 wcpm, and her comprehension scores went from 3 5 questions correct to 9 10 questions correct. Perla did not manifest a learning disability; rather, she needed an intervention and a reading program that addressed her reading deficits more directly than Open Court Reading. Dr. Drako made two classroom observation during Open Court Reading instruction and tier II observations. (Without a Reading Specialist in the building, this becomes the responsibility of the Principal.) Bender, W. N. and Shore, C. (2007). Response to Intervention A Practical Guide for Every Teacher.
