AIS/RTI Mathematics

Plainview-Old Bethpage 2015-2016

What is AIS Math?

• AIS is a partnership between student,

parent, teacher, math specialist, and

• curriculum. Our goal is to steepen the

trajectory of each student’s academic path.

• We achieve success doing the following:
• Responding to the Intervention as early as

possible

• Increasing frequency and providing multiple
• pportunities to math concepts
• Providing alternative strategies for success
• Creating a supportive environment that has a

positive mindset

• Closing the achievement gap over time

Three Tiered TRI

• A three-tiered RTI program is in place to allow

for flexibility in meeting the needs of students with varying levels of deficiency with:

• Tier 1 interventions available in all settings

for all students with the aim of being preventive and proactive.

• Tier 2 interventions designed for small groups
• f students with an AIS instructor in either a

pull-out or push-in model as determined by the team.

• Tier 3 interventions generally for students

who require the highest degree of frequency and lowest number of students.

What does AIS Math look like at POB?

• Math AIS providers focus on:
• Math fluency
• Concept development
• Preteaching and reteaching
• Problem solving - using multiple strategies and decoding word problems
• Staffing:
• Elementary Schools:
• 1.5 FTE math specialists at each building
• This includes the addition of 0.5 for the 2015-16 school year at each building
• Middle Schools:
• POBMS 2.8 FTE - 2.0 full-time AIS teachers plus 0.8 FTE (shared by math teachers)
• MMS 2.0 FTE - 1.0 full-time AIS teacher plus 1.0 FTE (shared by math teachers)

Academic Intervention Services Resources

• FASTT Math - Fluency and Automaticity

through Systematic Teaching with Technology

• Manipulatives - counters, tiles, use of personal

white boards, etc.

• IXL - added Grades 1-4 for 2015-16
• EngageNY Modules
• enVision/GoMath tiered materials
• Various websites and online games/activities
• STAR Assessment – new 2015-16

NYS Assessment Data

Professional Development

• Beginning in 2013, we have utilized math consultant Larry Farrell to work

with classroom and AIS teachers

• Focus on fluency and concept development - concrete, pictorial,

abstract

• In addition, separate sessions scheduled for math specialists
• Demo/Modeling of lessons and fluency activities
• Out of district workshops (Boces, Bureau for Educational Research, etc.)
• 18-hour Staff Development evaluating district data, instructional

strategies, and new resources

• Utilizing math specialists as coaches during professional hour, grade level

meetings, and/or in classroom lessons

• Monthly math specialists meetings
• Professional Hour to work on smaller building and/or grade level items
• Curriculum Writing focusing on content emphases, assessments, and

supplemental materials.

AIS Math Accomplishments

• Professional Development for all classroom teachers and academic support teachers
• Developed and updated Trimester/Quarterly/Midyear/End-of-year Assessments
• Analyzed data from Trimester/Quarterly/Midyear/End-of-year Assessments
• Analyzed data from NYS Assessments at District, Building, Teacher, and Student

levels

• Created Rubrics for Trimester/Quarterly/Midyear/End-of-year Assessments aligned

with the Common Core Standards and NYS “holistic” rubric

• Analyzed student performance for teacher(s) use to target instruction and set goals
• Decreased the number of students receiving AIS
• Provided earlier intervention
• Updated mandated Progress Reports to reflect Common Core Standards and pacing

for the year

AIS Math Goals

• Incorporate a math diagnostic and progress monitoring tool

to be used throughout RTI ○ STAR Assessments from Renaissance Learning (in progress for 2015-16)

• Explore adaptive learning platform for remediation
• Decrease class size of AIS sections
• Increase zero-period AIS at the MS level and Grades 2-3
• Increase push-in services for primary grades and/or Tier II

intervention

AIS Math Goals

• Continue to target intervention as early as possible
• Continue to build capacity with Tier I/II interventions
• Continue to refine criteria guidelines for program entrance/exit
• Continue meaningful professional development
• Share best practices between schools
• Increase articulation between grade levels and buildings
