Professional Learning Communities at Work®

Empower your mathematics collaborative teams and students with this comprehensive guide. The authors provide preK–12 educators with tools and strategies for accelerating student learning of mathematics to grade level and beyond through intentional Tier 1 and Tier 2 instruction.

Whether you’re in collaborative teams identifying grade-level standards, school leadership teams assessing Tier 2 interventions, or intervention teams helping at-risk students, this book offers educators the targeted tools necessary to create a highly effective multitiered system of supports (MTSS) that can ensure high levels of learning for every student.

Build a defensible body of evidence for every student. The IMPACT framework and the seven design principles of competency-based learning, as presented in this book, make this practical and doable for professional learning communities. This framework helps with clarifying learning expectations, planning assessments, and establishing protocols for proficient performance.

The second edition of the bestseller Taking Action offers a step-by-step guide that defines—tier by tier—the essential actions of the guiding coalition, teacher teams, and intervention team. Educators will delve deeper into how to leverage the PLC at Work® process to create a highly effective multitiered system of supports.

Take strategic action to close the systemic behavior gap with the support of Behavior Solutions. Foster social-emotional learning (SEL) by utilizing the PLC at Work® and RTI at Work™ processes to boost student metacognition and create an action plan for meeting their psychological needs.

Create a student intervention plan that leads to success for all. With 40 weekly planning pages and space for eight class periods, the RTI at Work™ Plan Book by Austin Buffum and Mike Mattos will guide teachers and collaborative team through implementing response to intervention (RTI) within a PLC at Work®.

Prepare students to move forward in mathematics learning, and ensure their continued growth in critical thinking and problem solving.

Change how you think about RTI, and learn how to create an effective model that begins with quality instruction in every classroom.

Accessible language and compelling K12 stories illustrate how RTI is most effective when built on the Professional Learning Communities at Work® process.
