Teacher’s Request for Assistance | This brief form is a sample template that Targeted (Tier 2) teams can request teachers to fill-out when requesting Tier 2 and/ or 3 support for a student who is exhibiting an academic or behavioral concern. | Teams can use this sample to create their own “Request for Information” forms for Tier 2 and/or 3 interventions. | |
Parent/Guardian Request for Assistance Form | This brief form is a sample template that Targeted (Tier 2) teams can request parents/ guardians to fill-out when requesting Tier 2 and/ or 3 support for a child who is exhibiting an academic or behavioral concern. | Teams can use this sample to create their own “Request for Information” forms for Tier 2 and/or 3 interventions. | |

It includes an overview of Tier 2 programming at the school, lists and descriptions of current Tier 2 interventions, and additional Tier 2 information. | Teams can use this sample to create their own Tier 2 Booklet for their school. | |
Sample Report from the Tier 2 Tracking Tool | This report shows how data entered into the new Tier 2 tracking tool (in Excel) prints for teams. Teams can print out data entered in the form of a table or graph, by intervention or by month. There is a tutorial on the website. | District Coaches and Teams can see how the tracking tool prints across the different report formats. | |
Sample Tier 2 Meeting Agendas | This document provides example agendas for two sequential meetings during which a Targeted (Tier 2) team pointedly holds systems-related and problem-solving conversations. | Teams can use these samples to determine how to structure their own Tier 2 teams monthly. | |
Interventions | Tier 2 Student Interview | This is a template of an interview form students who are entering a targeted intervention can fill-out to help the intervention facilitator better understand the student’s issues related to curriculum, instruction, and/or behavior issues, as well as the student’s subject preference and learning styles. | Tier 2 intervention coordinators and/or facilitators can use this with students entering a Tier 2 intervention. |
Initial Training Checklist | It is recommended that schools provide some level of information and/or training to staff, students and families in regard to all available targeted interventions. This packet includes sample and blank checklist templates that teams can use. | Teams can use helpful sample checklists to organize their Tier 2 training efforts | |
Targeted Interventions | This document outlines a variety of evidence-based interventions to address students’ Tier 2 level behaviors of concern and the function(s) of those behaviors. Each intervention is described in detail. | Administration and teams may use this document to determine what new Tier 2 interventions to invest in and why. | |
Tier 2 Intervention Rating Form | This form helps schools to easily measure the feasibility of implementation, benefit of students with behavior problems, willingness of staff to implement, and team opinions of the specific intervention. | Teams can critically examine important characteristics of any current or future Tier 2 interventions. | |
Asset Mapping by Intervention & Asset Mapping by People | These tools help to identify interventions currently in place and help determine the following: 1. How are resources being used and/or what resources are needed for current Tier 2 interventions? 2. How well are current interventions addressing the function of Tier 2 student behaviors? | Teams can use these asset mapping tools to better identify how appropriate and supported current Tier 2 interventions are in the school. | |
10 Critical Features | This document contains a list of important points for Targeted (Tier 2) teams to remember when building and/or restructuring their team discussions and building and/or restructuring their Tier 2 interventions. | It is recommended that schools use this checklist when considering new Tier 2 interventions and/or evaluating existing interventions. | |
Implementation Integrity Checklist | This document contains a template checklist that teams can use to assess the implementation integrity of various interventions. | Teams can fill in the checklist according to the intervention being assessed. |
