| Summary: | "Finally, one resource that weaves professional learning communities (PLCs), differentiated instruction (DI), and Response to Intervention (RTI) into a comprehensive framework for achieving school improvement"-- Provided by publisher.
"Judy Stoehr, Maria Banks, and Linda Allen's Weaving the Tapestry: Implementing and Sustaining Differentiation, Response to Intervention and Professional Learning Communities is a practical guide for educational leaders and teachers who are interested in understanding how professional learning communities, response to intervention, and differentiated instruction can all be effectively used together in a systematic, school-wide way. With practical classroom strategies and implementation and integration tools, Stoehr, Banks, and Allen specifically demonstrate how professional learning communities can be the umbrella under which response to intervention and differentiated instruction can function and play off of each other. The authors go on to explain how this approach of using PLCs as the framework for sharing new strategies and understandings, discussing data collected through assessments, and evaluating data against benchmarks will give teachers a stronger support system in making their instructional decisions and ultimately increasing student achievement"-- Provided by publisher.
