MTSS for Reading Improvement with Stephanie Stollar and Sarah Brown
Description
Episode 232
We know MTSS can feel like one more acronym and maybe one more thing on your plate. But what if it was the thing that helped everything else run more smoothly instead?
In this episode, we chat with Stephanie Stollar and Sarah Brown, authors of MTSS for Reading Improvement, who help us rethink what strong systems of support actually look like. Together, we explore how to move beyond one-off interventions and start building aligned, school-wide systems that support every reader.
You’ll hear:
- The difference between MTSS and intervention
- Why Tier 1 instruction is your most powerful lever for change
- What it looks like to work within your reality, not around it
- How class-wide supports and smart teaming can lead to huge growth
- Ways teachers (even without formal leadership roles) can spark change
