" As I was reading about the Comprehensive Intervention Model I began to see an overwhelming theme; collaboration. We have heard many of our speakers throughout the week so far express how important it is to collaborate. This chapter explained who was involved in the collaboration process, and what happened during the process at the focus school in Wisconsin. At my school we now have grade level collaboration meetings built into our work day, that occur 3 out of 6 mornings before the students arrive. Meyer and Reindl shared on page 128 that in addition to classroom teachers, intervention specialists, reading specialists, ELL teachers, special education teachers, guidance counselors, coaches, and administrators should attend the collaboration meetings in which data is discussed in creating RTII plans for students. I am going to take this information back to my district, because I do feel that it is important for all of the key players that are involved with the students to be present. Through this collaboration not only are we working towards the common goal for what is best for the students, but, we are all growing from each other’s experiences and will in turn have the opportunity to “reflect on our own instruction” (pg. 132)."
