What characterizes Tier 1 in the tiered approach to prevention and intervention?

A focus on intense support for struggling students
A combination of UDL with ongoing progress monitoring
Assessment for advanced skill achievement
Individualized support not based on curriculum

The correct answer is: A combination of UDL with ongoing progress monitoring

Tier 1 in the tiered approach to prevention and intervention is characterized by a focus on Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles combined with ongoing progress monitoring. This tier includes high-quality, evidence-based teaching strategies that are applied to all students in the general education classroom. The aim is to provide an inclusive learning environment where the needs of all learners are considered, and instructional strategies are adaptable to diverse learning styles and abilities. Ongoing progress monitoring is essential in this tier because it allows educators to assess the effectiveness of their instructional practices and make data-driven decisions. By continually checking in on student progress, teachers can ensure that all students are receiving the support they need and can identify those who may require additional intervention in Tiers 2 and 3. This approach contrasts with more intensive supports found in the other tiers, which focus on students who are struggling or require individualized interventions. Therefore, the emphasis in Tier 1 is on proactive strategies that are beneficial for the entire classroom rather than solely targeting those who are behind.
