RTI for Mathematics:
- Using RTI to Improve Learning in Mathematics (RTI Action Network: A. VanDerHeyden)
Here are some good introductory guides from the What Works Clearinghouse on effective schoolwide and classroom math practices that conform with the RTI model:
- Assisting Students Struggling With Mathematics
- Teaching Strategies for Improving Algebra Knowledge in Middle and High School Students
- Teaching Math to Young Children
- Improving Mathematical Problem Solving in Grades 4 Through 8
- Developing Effective Fractions Instruction for Kindergarten Through 8th Grade
- Encouraging Girls in Math and Science
RTI for Behavior:
- RTI Behavior Interventions & Supports (RTI Action Network: H. Bohanon, K. McIntosh, & S. Goodman). This 4-article series describes important elements of an RTI behavior model, including a description of Tiers 1-3.

Finding Quality Tier 2/3 Academic Instruction/Intervention Programs
- Tier 2/3 Intervention Website: What Works Clearinghouse. This website reviews core instruction and intervention programs in reading & mathematics, as well as other academic areas. The site reviews existing studies and draws conclusions about whether specific intervention programs show evidence of effectiveness.
- Tier 2/3 Intervention Website: Best Evidence Encyclopedia. This site provides reviews of evidence-based math and reading programs. The website is sponsored by the Johns Hopkins University School of Education's Center for Data-Driven Reform in Education (CDDRE) .
- Tier 2/3 Intervention Website: National Center on Intensive Intervention Academic Intervention Chart. Sponsored by the National Center on Intensive Intervention, this page provides ratings to intervention programs in math, reading, and writing. Users can sort their search by subject and grade level.
