In this episode of "Your Morning Boost," we explore the crucial role of Tier 1 instruction within MTSS. We emphasize that Tier 1 is the foundation, essential for reducing the need for intensive interventions. 1 We cover key elements of strong Tier 1, including evidence-based practices, differentiated learning, progress monitoring, and supportive classrooms. 2 Drawing from the National Center on Intensive Intervention, we highlight how effective core instruction prevents academic and behavioral issues. We offer practical advice on strengthening Tier 1, including professional development, quality resources, and fostering continuous improvement. We remind listeners that prevention is key, echoing the adage, 'an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.' Tune in for actionable MTSS insights.
