Differentiated Core (Tier I)
100% of students
Effectiveness goal: At
least 80% of students
succeed on Core
instruction alone.
DPS Framework for Instruction
Layer 1 - Framework
Layer 3 - Guide
CFIP: A Problem Solving
Process (evaluating Tier I)
Step 1: What data will
be analyzed and
when was it
administered?
Step 2: What
questions about
student achievement
are we trying to
answer? Sample Data Sheet
CFIP: A Problem Solving
Process (planning for Tier II)
Step 3: What patterns
of mastery and non-
mastery does the data
show? Who needs
enrichment and who
needs additional
instruction?
Step 4: What
instructional changes
will we take to address
student needs? How
will we know if it Common Assessment Analysis
working?
Supplemental Support (Tier II)
Approximately 20%
of students
Effectiveness goal:
At least 95% of all
students succeed
with Core Instruction
plus Supplemental
Support.
Supplemental Support (Tier II)
May be a standard
protocol/program
More explicit and direct
instruction
Immediate corrective
feedback
Increased opportunities for
students to respond
Small group format
Regular progress
monitoring to see if it is
working
Documentation for
Supplemental Support
DPS Central
CFIP: A Problem Solving
Process (planning for Tier III)
Increased frequency or
intensity of standard protocol
More narrowly defined
instructional targets
Explicit instruction
More involved corrective
feedback
Guided practice
opportunities
Narrowly defined task content
that is gradually accelerated
More frequent progress
monitoring
Intensive Support (Tier III)
