Resource: Tier 2 Protocol Data Based Decision Making

This tool was designed for a middle school, Tier 2 math intervention. Theoretically, Tier 2 interventions strive to not individualize (that's Tier 3), but in a secondary setting, the contextual factors (i.e. the school schedule and nature of the interventions) created a situation where (although in Tier 2) we had a "non-responder" or two and had to do something!

This is a standard protocol intensification process that we could apply even to groups of students with the intervention before getting to individualization.
