4. Goal:
to
support
students
in
working
effecDvely
in
the
classroom
environment
5. Rationale:
By
sharing
our
collecDve
knowledge
about
our
classes
of
students
and
developing
a
plan
of
acDon
based
on
this,
we
can
beHer
meet
the
needs
of
all
students.
6. A Key Belief
IntervenDon
is
focused
on
classroom
support.
Classroom-‐based
intervenDon
does
NOT
mean
that
all
specialists
have
to
be
in
the
classroom
all
the
Dme.
Instead,
the
RESULTS
of
their
work
have
to
show
up
in
the
classroom.
