I don't usually review books that I've read--especially professional ones, but this book (along with Richard Allington's What Really Matters in Response to Intervention) was terrific. I'm rereading it at this time and taking notes to share with my colleagues. Mary Howard is a dynamic speaker and writer with lots of experience and research to back up her claims. The book is very easy to read and understand and says all of the important-though not necessarily popular-things about making sure our students are successful. I would highly recommend .

It is loaded with interventions that are right for kids and right for the educators who serve them. Read RTI from All Sides and get the information you need to create a safety net that can save struggling readers before the learning gap widens forever.. It profiles RTI as a framework for increasing intentional instructionkeeping the emphasis on knowledgeable educators rather than "programs."
