  1. Shannon – MARBLE FALLS ISD (verified owner) –

    I appreciated the comparison of the RtI triangle and how it could be applied to supporting gifted students. I also like how she replaced “intervention” with “advancement” to show we’re supporting not only low learners but also the high learners. Adding the Bell curve as an overlay to the mirrored triangle really helps to better understand the curve and where students are.
