Drawing on extensive classroom experience, the authors:

*Present color-coded intervention recipes for all three tiers of RTI implementation.

*Provide hands-on tools and 50 reproducibles, with a large format and sturdy spiral binding for ease of use.

*Explain the core features of RTI and what they look like in action.

*Describe evidence-based instructional methods for reading, writing, math, and behavior.

*Show how to fit assessment and progress monitoring into the busy school day.
