The Dynamic Nature of Tier 2 Literacy Instruction

Since the Ontario Human Rights Commission released its Right to Read Report recommendations, fundamental changes have taken place in the way reading is taught in Ontario schools. Educators across the province have begun using science-based, systematic, and explicit instruction in their classrooms. However, every student is different, and some may require more support to learn reading skills. So what are the next steps when a student’s reading isn’t improving despite having access to strong, evidence-based, classroom instruction? The Ontario Ministry of Education advocates for the use of the “Tiered Approach” in teaching. This is sometimes referred to as Response to Intervention or RTI outside of Ontario. Instead of waiting for a student to fail an assessment or the entire grade, before getting extra help, the tiered approach allows educators to respond to children’s needs as they happen. See how the Keewatin-Patricia and Waterloo Region District School Boards are responding to the needs of struggling readers of all ages in flexible and dynamic ways.
